      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    The only light in Joe

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 2.35:1 DVD picture opens with intentionally drab, slightly green hues, which support the sickening fluorescent lighting in Joe

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #73 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I like the movie reviews, and I like the equipment tests. I enjoy the interviews with manufacturers. I also feel that you are a good source for what is coming out next, trends etc. I think you dig a little deeper in your tests of equipment. Sometimes I have to read between the lines, and I know why you don't slam some company's gear. You have more interesting reading.
