WSR Narrative Review |

Story Synopsis:
Wesley Snipes and Woody Harrelson team up in Money Train as foster brothers John and Charlie, who work as transit cops for the New York City subway system. Loaded with attitude, the two are inseparable, but John is always bailing out his high-stakes gambling kid brother.
LaserDisc Picture:
The THX® transfer used the Sony HD process and the perfectly framed 2.35:1 picture is stunning. Images are sharp and detailed with vivid colors, natural fleshtones and deep, solid blacks. Contrast is excellent as is color fidelity. The picture is solid with no noise or artifacts.
LaserDisc Soundtrack:
The soundtrack has stereo effects and deep bass extension that effectively intensifies the action sequences. The music is dynamic with a sense of surround envelopment, but occasionally the sound is wanting in fidelity.
