  WSR Narrative Review
Story Synopsis:
Jake Schram (Stiller) and Brian Finn (Norton) have been best friends since they were kids. Sharing everything, they eventually even began working for the same boss...so to speak. Jake

DVD Picture:
The anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD exhibits pleasing quality, with colors that are rich and nicely balanced with accurate fleshtones and deep, pure blacks.

Contrast and shadow delineation is nicely rendered throughout. (Suzanne Hodges)

Soundtrack:
