      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    Known as The 6th Day law, a global decree has been passed that bans all human cloning worldwide. Cloning pets is okay, cloning plants, fruits and vegetables is okay. But not people. However, top-notch pilot Adam Gibson (Schwarzenegger) suddenly finds himself looking at himself when he was thought to have been killed on a mission but in reality returns safely. Unable to share life with his family (because

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 2.40:1 DVD appears to be of the same pleasing image quality as the previously reviewed DVD. The picture is sharp and defined, with excellent contrast and shadow delineation. Colors are rich and well balanced, with accurate fleshtones, rich hues, and generally deep blacks. There is little edge enhancement apparent, and the picture is smooth, with no distracting pixelization. Contrast and shadow delineation are well balanced, with an accurate gradation of visual information in the darker scenes. While the visual effects seem a bit questionable at times, the transfer is right on. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Reason #63 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I am an older guy who had not bought any A/V equipment for the last 14 years. I was really out of the loop as to what was happening. Did not even own a DVD player until now. This summer, my wife and I decided to build a small home theatre in our basement. Widescreen Review has been an invaluable research partner. The room was completed in mid September and now Widescreen Review can really show its stuff. The extensive DVD reviews are the final word for us when picking movies to watch. The news and equipment reviews keep us current, as we start down the never-ending path of upgrade-itis. Thanks for a great magazine.
