      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    Small-time celebrity interviewer Jiminy Glick (Short) finds himself In Lalawood, searching for his big break with an

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.82:1 DVD picture exhibits pleasing qualities throughout. Color fidelity is nicely balanced, with accurate fleshtones, rich and warm hues, and deep blacks. The picture exhibits satisfying sharpness, though some scenes have a softly focused appearance. Compression is quite good with this title, and the result is a generally clean and smooth image. Rarely are edge halos apparent. Occasionally, the picture seems slightly smeared. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Reason #45 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I read WSR because I enjoy configuring my home entertainment system myself. I don't have enough disposable income to buy all new components and hire an installer to set it all up. So, I have relied on WSR to guide me in almost all aspects of the (continual) upgrade process. I have always stayed glued to the reviews so that I can choose where my dollar is going to affect the greatest impact in my system. When you have a tight budget to work with, even the smallest purchase decisions make a difference.
