      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    A great sequel to the Excellent Adventure, Bill & Ted

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD picture exhibits a colorful picture, with vibrant hues, nicely balanced fleshtones and deep blacks. Images are generally sharp, though at times the picture has a slightly smeared quality. There is some minor edge enhancement noticed at times, and finer details occasionally shimmer. Some dirt and artifacts are revealed from the source element. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #18 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    There are, of course, a number of reasons why I read Widescreen Review. The primary one, however, is the excellent informative reviews and critiques on the latest DVD's, which are most helpful! In addition, there are many very informative articles on all aspects of home theatre, and I really view your magazine as an excellent resource for any home theatre owner in terms of ideas and excellent product information.
