      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    In a distant solar system, a completely male-populated planet (they use the cloning method) has decided to take over the universe

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD exhibits excellent quality with impressive, nicely balanced colors. Fleshtones are accurately rendered and blacks are deep and solid. Occasionally, hues appear just a tad pumped up. Images are sharp and finely detailed into backgrounds. Contrast and shadow delineation are nicely rendered throughout. Images can appear a bit digital, with a hard edge, and some enhancement is noticed. Otherwise, the picture is quite impressive and will surely please.

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #126 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I read Widescreen Review to determine which products are worth spending my hard-earned money on. With all of the constant changes in the world of home entertainment, one needs a source of information and insight on what works and what doesn't. Having a home theatre, I don't want to go out and buy the latest gimmick. I want parts that will be good now and still be good later on down the line. Widescreen Review lets me know which equipment from the sea of electronics fits my needs! I recommend it to all who want unbiased opinions on what works and what doesn't!
