You're probably looking at the picture in the Canvas. You cannot judge the quality of any kind of effect on the Canvas. Watch it on an external broadcast monitor, properly calibrated. And make sure you render the effect -- FCP does do some real-time playback of effects, but it doesn't do a good job of it.
If the effect still looks bad on an external monitor after rendering, check your render quality.
Thanks for your response.
I use a standard Sony 13" NTSC monitor as well as an off brand 15" HD monitor to check everything during the course of editing. I render at the highest quality possible but still find that the scence goes a little soft after reversing the footage. It is soft enought that I cannot use it on a large screen display as intended. Do others have this problem or is it inherent in my system only?
try the free GReverse filter from [www.nattress.com]

FCP can have trouble playing clips backward.
the feilds can get mixed up. try teh FCP "Shift Fields" filter (Video Filters/Video?Shift Feilds) there are also a few "field fixer" plugins around, some of them free. try Stib's Feild Swapper from Stib's Filters: [www.pureandapplied.com.au] nick
