Title: Movie is great, DVD transfer stinks!
Review: As always, when I replace my VHS copies of my movies with DVD's I check the format to make sure that I am getting true widescreen presentations. Ferris, I'm sad to say, is the worst that I have seen when it comes to the so-called widescreen format. If you have ever compared the full screen version to the DVD widescreen version you will see that all was done basically was to insert the black bars on the top and bottom of the picture. There are scenes where we should be seeing people's entire bodies but in the widescreen they are cut to the waistline. If you still have your VHS copy, KEEP IT! At least until the studios stop cheating us and start to actually release true widescreen formats on ALL of their DVD's and not just a select few.
Is the review positive or negative?
