      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    Before the two-and-a-half hour movie comes to an end,

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD exhibits images that are generally sharp and detailed. Colors are rich, with a slight lack of definition in the dim interior scenes. Fleshtones appear naturally rendered, and blacks are deep and endless. Contrast seems a bit low, especially in interior scenes, and the darker scenes are wanting in shadow delineation. Edge enhancement is noticed throughout, though its presence is generally minor, and there is some pixelization at times. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #3 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    Widescreen Review is the complete audio-video journal. Its reviews on hardware are in-depth with an excellent mixture of technical and non-technical information. Its choice of reviews also deals with products which may not be mainstream or mass market but still of interest.
