      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    In

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.78:1 DVD exhibits a dated picture that is slightly soft, but can be nicely detailed. Colors are well balanced, with accurate fleshtones and deep blacks. The appearance of edge enhancement can be bothersome, and some pixelization is noticed at times. The source element is revealing of some film grain and occasional artifacts. (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.
