      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    In

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD exhibits a satisfying picture, with images that are nicely detailed, if not a little bit soft. Colors appear to be just shy of full saturation, but are otherwise well balanced with nicely rendered fleshtones. Contrast seems a bit low, but shadow delineation is satisfactory. There is some pixelization noticed, but edge enhancement is generally not a problem. (Suzanne Hodges)

    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.
