      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    Shakira sold out concert venues the world over with her Oral Fixation Tour in 2006. The Latin lovely delivers a hip-shaking, toe-tapping, sing-along-at-the-top-of-your-voice, good time in this stage performance filmed mostly in Florida. Shakira covers all her international chart-topping hits, with the help of a few special guest musicians, Wycliff Jean, and Alejandro Sanz. (Stacey Pendry)

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.78:1 DVD has underwhelmingly deep blacks and poor shadow delineation, which can make the dark shots look like a field of gray. The picture shows good resolution, although longer shots can look like a jumbled mess. Compression artifacts are especially noticeable in these scenes. Edge enhancement isn

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #96 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I enjoy reading WSR because it is much more informative than the run of the mill A/V mags. The articles on cutting edge equipment are excellent. I enjoy the home theatre set-up articles. The movie reviews are first rate. Keep up the great work.
