      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    It

    DVD Picture:
    When compared to the LaserDisc reviewd in Issue 34, the anamorphically enhanced 1.78:1 DVD is slightly sharper, though the picture is really wanting in clarity and a more natural appearance overall. Colors are slightly more refined with better balance, but are still a bit oversaturated. Contrast and shadow delineation are mediocre, as is the overall quality of the disc. Film grain and artifacts are revealed throughout, but it is the overall lack of sharpness that makes image quality seem just under par.

    Soundtrack:

    Reason #68 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    It's the only magazine that has the three essential elements that true home theatre and movie enthusiasts require: 1) knowledgeable balanced writing 2) more real informational content than eye-candy and 3) advance insight about future technology, trends, and products. Thanks WSR!
