      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    Pretty Woman is a wonderful comedy and warm-hearted love story that stars Richard Gere as Edward Lewis, a wealthy business executive who gets lost in Hollywood and pays a hooker to take him to his hotel. Vivian

    DVD Picture:
    Fans of Pretty Woman will be delighted with this replacement to their previously released non-anamorphic DVD. This new anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD picture exhibits pleasing qualities overall. Color fidelity is well balanced, with accurate fleshtones, nice saturation, and deep blacks. While the picture can be sharp and detailed, especially in comparison to the previous DVD release, there is still some smearing and lack of finer details. Minor pixelization is noticed, as well as an occasional hint of edge enhancement. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Soundtrack:

    Reason #116 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    Widescreen Review is my favorite magazine because it is different from all the other A/V magazines. The ads are better, and it seems like all the others (that I subscribe to) have the same boring ads. You also have better product information in your equipment reviews. I love the DVD New Release section. It tells me how much I have to save up for DVD purchases. My favorite section is the Coming Soon To A Retailer Near You section. I have learned so much from this magazine I use information from it every day of my life. I am an A/V fanatic. (ask my wife). Anyway, I will subscribe to this mag forever. Thanks for such a great magazine
