Was Caregiver released at theaters with a 4:3 aspect ratio? The DVD is 4:3 (as is most (all?) other Star DVD release).
At 1.33:1, it has small black bars on the top and bottom, indicating that the original aspect ratio must be higher (1.66:1?). Why can't Star Records make anamorphic widescreen DVD? And most of their transfer suffers from grain. These are new films and with their state of the art equipment, you expect more (in terms of PQ and AQ). They should also include the original Pilipino subtitles (not just English), they are already available, not that you have to hire somebody to translate them...
Yes, other local studios also suffers from the same problems, but Star DVDs are the most pricey at 600 for new films, you expect a little more...
