      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    You know, you just can

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD exhibits generally good quality, though the picture occasionally looks older than it actually is. Images can be nicely detailed on occasion, but are most often softly focused. Colors are generally well balanced, with nicely rendered fleshtones, though blacks are weak and undefined. While contrast is quite good, visuals in the darker scenes often lack definition. Film grain and artifacts are evident. There are minor distractions in the way of pixelization and edge enhancement. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Soundtrack:
    The remastered Dolby

    Reason #65 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I read Widescreen Review because it is an informative source on A/V equipment and entertainment. The many excellent reviews on DVDs (and Laser Discs, back in the day), as well as surround music, have led me to some real gems!
