    DVD Picture:
    The 1.66:1 DVD is not anamorphically enhanced and exhibits images of mediocre quality. Colors are satisfactory in saturation. However, contrast seems a bit low. The picture is quite soft overall, with limited details. Pixelization is noticed, but edge enhancement is not a problem. Subtitles are cut off at the bottom of widescreen displays. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Reason #93 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    The technical levels of the articles are far beyond most other non-industry publications on home theatre. While I read many of them, WSR is very unique in its coverage, reviews, articles, and the added content of the Web edition. For all of those reasons, WSR is a must-subscribe for any HT enthusiast, and that is why I read it!
