      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    Robin Hood is transposed to Prohibition-era Chicago when the Rat Pack rob the rich and give to the poor in Robin And The 7 Hoods

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 2.35:1 DVD picture exhibits images that are sharp with nicely rendered detail. Though dated, colors are rich and well balanced, with fleshtones that tend to appear a bit brownish. Blacks are deep and undefined. Fine visual information tends to get lost in the darker scenes. Shimmering details and aliasing problems are noticed, but edge enhancement and apparent noise reduction are infrequent. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #7 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    Truth is, there is no other magazine, on-line or in print, that covers the substantive issues, controversies, and current topics of the A/V world with as much relevance and detail as WSR does without forcing the reader to filter out the bias of the reviewer. Some other notable sources of information are top-heavy with reviews suffering from too much coloration: the golden eyes or ears syndrome. I prefer the clinical analysis of WSR with a touch of humor thrown in, to make for better reading. Thanks for giving me the facts and helping me with my buying decisions.
