      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    When magician Buddy

    DVD Picture:
    The highly contrasted, anamorphically enhanced 2.35:1 DVD can look vibrant and highly detailed, but there are times when it looks rather soft. Colors generally look natural, but fleshtones have an orange hue that removes from its naturalness. Edge enhancement is noticeable but does not become a huge distraction. (Danny Richelieu)

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #27 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    The New EQ section provides the latest news. I like the unbiased reviews that help me buy or not buy a particular product. Your magazine also informs us on what ‘s new in products and technology. Sometimes I delay my buying to get absolutely the latest and the best.
