WSR Narrative Review

Story Synopsis:
From the director of

DVD Picture:
The anamorphically enhanced 2.35:1 DVD exhibits image quality that can be quite pleasing, with colors that are nicely balanced and rich, at times bordering oversaturation. Blacks are deep and solid, and fleshtones appear accurate, if at times a bit orange. While images are generally sharp, there is apparent loss of fine detail that could be related to noise reduction. There is a preponderance of edge enhancement that can be quite bothersome, and pixelization adds a digital quality to the picture. (Suzanne Hodges)

Reason #43 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

I've subscribed to Widescreen Review for a number of years now. Unlike any other magazine in the field, WSR offers an incredible range of excellent equipment reviews, software reviews, and articles on upcoming technologies. It never ceases to amaze me on the inside information that Gary and his gang are able to get. A perfect example of this is the excellent speakers provided on the Home Theatre Cruise! How do you do it, Gary? I use WSR to keep up on which technologies are dueling it out for high-definition supremacy and to help me prepare for my future dream home theatre. Having such insider information is proving invaluable. No other magazine I know of helps to shape the industry it serves in such a positive way. Long live WSR!
