DVD-ROM Review:
After inserting the disc into your DVD-ROM drive, you are brought to the DVD-ROM main menu, which has the typical Universal links of Features, Script-to-Scene, and Subscribe to the DVD Newsletter.

Here is another title that follows that Universal cookie cutter DVD-ROM model. The addition of a viewable and printable script is a great feature, though, so a Mediocre seems to suffice.
