      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    Mickey and Mallory (Harrelson & Lewis) are Natural Born Killers

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.78:1 DVD exhibits a nicely rendered, picture that is both color and black-and-white, among other film formats like sequences of animation and video. Some scenes are intentionally gritty and harsh, with film grain and artifacts, while others are sharp, with impressive clarity and definition. Colors are used stylistically throughout, and hues are rich and well balanced. The slightest edge enhancement is noticed, but its presence is infrequent. Compared to the previously reviewed DVD, the anamorphically enhanced version is superior in terms of clarity, definition and color balance. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #62 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    Widescreen Review is the only place to go for no-nonsense evaluations of the audio and video qualities of a DVD before you drop your hard-earned cash for it. In an industry where the subjective is usually described in the most arcane manner possible (to the exclusion of the unwashed masses), WSR's clear and objective-as-you-can-get reviews give me the information I need to make purchasing decisions confidently.
