Most movies made for theatrical release (this includes Balto) are made widescreen. It was popular in the 1990s and early 2000s for them to be cropped to become full-screen, to support television screens (which were more square than theater screens.) So instead of just crunching the film together, they cut out the sides of it to only focus on the important parts of the picture.

You'll see the whole thing of the movie in theathers but when out on DVD it only shows the center pictures and cuts out the sides^This is wide screen
That is what you possibly saw in theaters but on DVD the left and right sides are cut out to "fit the screen"

360 degree screen is different, that's when you see all around you, this is a 180 degree screen
