Not worth buying because not a difference

The theatrical version is one of my favorite movies. Rarely can you "root for the bad guy", but the original made it easy to.
Soooooo, I thought the The Director's Cut would be a great retooling of the movie version. Wrong. I don't understand what the positive reviews of this version are all about. Other than him smacking his ex-wife around and a violent and pointless ending, there isn't a different story here. The Director's Cut changes in the scenes make the story less cohesive and choppy. Sally Kellerman's audio-only involvement adds nothing to the movie.
Save your money and stick with the theatrical version, or don't bother adding this to your collection. |
