About your screen, what display setting is your ps3 on? Maybe you should have 720p, and 1080p also checked. If that don't work try only 1080p, or 720p with your 1080i checked. That's if you haven't did that yet. Does your tv have a screen mode/zoom feature? Maybe it's zoomed in cinematic, expand, or something.
I got my HDTV about 6 years ago, before they came out with 1080p. It doesn't support 720p or 1080p and if I set those in the PS3, I just get a bluescreen. Unfortunatly I can't adjust height and width like on a monitor. Rockstar just got the dimensions wrong with the 1080i settings. I was on hold with PS3 customer support for a while and found a thread online where others have the problem too.

If the size of the video image and the TV screen do not match:
Check that the PLAYSTATION®3 system's video output settings are correct.
Check that the PLAYSTATION®3 settings of the connected TV are correct. For details, refer to the instructions supplied with your TV.
With some video content, the screen size cannot be changed.
The game is still playable and looks great. I also don't have any of the wierd glitches that people are reporting with 1080p.
