    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD exhibits a pleasing picture in all aspects of image quality. Images are sharp and finely detailed, with good contrast and shadow delineation throughout. Colors are rich, with full saturation, accurate fleshtones and deep, pure blacks. There are no blatant distractions, only occasionally noticed pixelization, for a picture that will surely please.

    Reason #48 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    In addition to Widescreen Review, I subscribe to several audio/video publications, such as Sound And Vision, Stereophile, Stereophile Guide To Home Theater, Audio Video Interiors, and peruse through the myriad of British audio video publications when I go to Borders, Barnes & Nobles, or Tower Records. I must acknowledge that Widescreen Review is one of the better ones because it is more like a trade publication than a magazine full of advertisements. Moreover, Widescreen Review was one of the first publications to delve into DVI and more importantly, HMDI, which I deem important because it can make a lot of the current products out there obsolete. Put simply, Widescreen Review is The New York Times of audio/video publication. In other words, if you want real news, you read The New York Times. To stay on top of what’s happening in the audio/video industry, you read Widescreen Review. Enough said.
