      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    Flawless stars Robert DeNiro as Walter Koontz, an ex-cop security guard living in a rundown apartment in Hell

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD exhibits a nearly flawless picture, with colors that are rich and vibrant with accurate fleshtones and deep, pure blacks. Images are sharp and finely detailed, with nicely rendered contrast and shadow delineation. There are no distracting artifacts or pixelization for overall imagery that will surely please, especially the vibrant colors, which sometimes appear stylized.

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #101 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I read Widescreen Review because I like dealing with home theatre. I like watching movies the way they are intended to be seen by the Director at the most optimum grade. I am a student at NJIT studying for Electrical Engineering, and hopefully, I will be working in this fascinating world of audio/video.
