      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 2.37:1 animated DVD will show good resolution, but compression artifacts can make a mess of many scenes, which is a shame because the picture shows real promise at times. Black levels and shading in the shadows are well rendered, which can help provide good depth of field to the imagery. The color scheme is rather limited for an animated title, but the colors that are used can be bold and nicely saturated. Edge enhancement is minor, but can be a distraction at times. (Danny Richelieu)

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #64 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    As a newbie to widescreen TVs and all they can be equipped with, I have been overwhelmed. Your magazine brings together a wealth of information for the new guy as well as the old dog. It has helped me pick out what home theatre products are right for me, as well as in my price range. I enjoy learning about these new products and different terms for their capabilities every month.
