      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    Based on the novel,

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.78:1 DVD is very nice looking, with colors that are vibrant and nicely balanced, with accurate fleshtones and deep blacks. Colors are so vivid, they sometimes appear a tad pumped up. Images are quite sharp and detailed, though some scenes lack fine detail. Contrast and shadow delineation are nicely rendered. A bit of edge enhancement is occasionally noticed. There are a few instances in which a distracting artifact from the source element pops on screen, but overall artifacts are minimal. Pixelization is rarely noticed.

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #52 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    The DVD reviews are very informative. I especially like the detailed specification information available for both the DVD and the theatrical release of movies. The recent news features are often quite interesting to an amateur audiophile like myself.
