      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    Determined would-be songwriter Violet Sanford (Perabo) is making the big move to the Big Apple to pursue her dream. With little luck, she is forced to take a job and finds her true calling at a wild and crazy bar known as Coyote Ugly. Along with other outrageous barmaids, Violet learns to flip tequlia bottles, toss water and alcohol on the cheering crowd, and shake her thang on top of the bar.

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 2.35:1 DVD exhibits sharp and detailed images with excellent definition throughout. Colors are bold and vibrant, with balanced fleshtones and deep, solid blacks. Contrast and shadow detail are nicely rendered throughout. There are no blatant distractions, only some very minor and infrequent edge enhancement, for a picture that should surely delight in all aspects of image quality. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #48 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    In addition to Widescreen Review, I subscribe to several audio/video publications, such as Sound And Vision, Stereophile, Stereophile Guide To Home Theater, Audio Video Interiors, and peruse through the myriad of British audio video publications when I go to Borders, Barnes & Nobles, or Tower Records. I must acknowledge that Widescreen Review is one of the better ones because it is more like a trade publication than a magazine full of advertisements. Moreover, Widescreen Review was one of the first publications to delve into DVI and more importantly, HMDI, which I deem important because it can make a lot of the current products out there obsolete. Put simply, Widescreen Review is The New York Times of audio/video publication. In other words, if you want real news, you read The New York Times. To stay on top of what’s happening in the audio/video industry, you read Widescreen Review. Enough said.
