    Been this price a few times now, but it's always worth mentioning for those who haven't got it yet.. It's one of those films that if you have a Blu-Ray Player, you MUST buy this title, the picture is outstanding!

    Er, unless I'm mistaken, on telly it's not this version. This is the FULL version :)

    "Film4 9:00pm-11:50pm (2 hours 50 minutes) Mon 6 Feb"

    This Blu-ray has a runtime of around 4.5 hours.

    Enjoy your casual cut version. Real men will be enjoying the uncut international edition.

    "Comparison:
    International Version from UK
    International Version (Uncensored)


    Comparison between the UK DVD from Entertainment in Video with the German DVD from Constantin.

    Run Time:
    Run time UK = 02:21:44 (02:15:54 without credits)
    Run time DE = 02:23:00 (02:17:11 without credits)
    (The majority of the difference in time is a result of the introduction on the German DVD.)

    John Woo's epos Red Cliff was released in the international version as well as in the longer original version (as Special edition) in the UK. Unsurprisingly, both versions had to be cut due to the Cinematograph Animals Act.

    The declarations to the first part of the Special Edition and the International Version both include the following sentence:

    With one exception, which has been cut from the film, the BBFC is satisfied with the company's reassurances that no horses were injured and that various provisions were made to ensure their safety during the making of the film.

    Sounds common, but to the surprize of the viewers the international version includes footage that had to be cut out of the Special Edition.
    To be more precisely, 4 of the 6 cuts during the fight scenes are (almost) completey included in the international version (one scene was cut out of the international version due to tightening up). "

    Really don't care about missing out on that. You enjoy your uncut version lol...

    not familiar with this, but stuff like Crouching Tiger, Hero, Daggers etc is right up my street, so i'll give it a whirl. £5 seems a super bargain, nice find!

    Arguably one of the best looking Blu-rays in my collection.

    True. The Dynasty Warriors games are based on this too.

    A 1-word review of a film that goes against the large majority can be safely ignored.

    Epic how? This is a rubbish movie, just like many others in similar styles from those Chinese directors. Spending 5 hours watching stunning detail of a rubbish interpretation and display of a Chinese classic? Thanks but no.
