    Story Synopsis:
    The sequel to Walt Disney Studios and Pixar Animation Studios groundbreaking hit is Toy Story 2. All the favorites are back with some terrific new toys. This time, Woody (Hanks)-now a valuable collector

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.78:1 DVD exhibits a beautiful digital-to-digital transfer, with superb image quality in all aspects. Like the original Toy Story, colors are rich and vibrant with excellent balance. Images are sharp and finely detailed into "backgrounds." The amount of detail seen in this movie is absolutely breathtaking and revealing of how much care went into its creation. Contrast and "shadow delineation" are superb, with excellent visual information in the darker scenes. There are no distractions, though, for the record, one instance revealed a slight shimmer in the picture. The visuals are absolutely stunning.

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #63 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I am an older guy who had not bought any A/V equipment for the last 14 years. I was really out of the loop as to what was happening. Did not even own a DVD player until now. This summer, my wife and I decided to build a small home theatre in our basement. Widescreen Review has been an invaluable research partner. The room was completed in mid September and now Widescreen Review can really show its stuff. The extensive DVD reviews are the final word for us when picking movies to watch. The news and equipment reviews keep us current, as we start down the never-ending path of upgrade-itis. Thanks for a great magazine.
