Rating: 4.0
Not about content but presentation
I am writing this review having not seen this film but having just bought it. I wanted to warn anybody potential buyers that this version of Sleuth is flawed. It claims to be a Widescreen presentation, but the credits clearly run off the side of the screen. Also, the label of the film looks like really questionable as if someone printed out labels on their computer and slapped them on the tape. There is not even a running time on the actual tape. Although people who do not like Widescreen probably will not mind, those that do like widescreen will be rather annoyed by this false advertising. The image is a little wider than the standard format, but not wide enough. And it is so blatant. At least make it less obvious! But oh well. I hope the film is good.
