DVD is not complete


Just bought this great movie on dvd, and I'm if not mistaken, there are some scenes missing in the dvd version. One that comes to mind is the scene on the beach at night, one of the characters makes a little speech before they take the group picture, and that was completely cut out. One wonders why they edited this movie for dvd release.

I don't remember the "speech on the beach" scene, but the scene that is clearly missing on the DVD is the one on the FBI gun range where Doug Sheehan says to Ronny Cox : "I wonder how good you are without your glasses !" after Cox emptied his entire clip on a target's head.

They also cut the scene where one of the FBI agents loses his revolver after drawing it from the holster during the vehicle chase and placing it between his knees. During the subsequent crash, he lost it out the door and was never able to recover it during the fight.

It was on the very first TV showing, but was cut from all subsequent broadcasts.

I could swear they show another Monte Carlo at one point--I think Michael Gross is the main guy in teh scene that is black and has some scroll work around the wheel wells.

Just watched this on a free to air channel in the UK - True Movies. It was sliced & diced to death. Almost the entire shoot-out scene was gone...about 15 seconds is all we saw, then it cuts to cop cars pitching up and that's close to the end credits.

>>...about 15 seconds is all we saw,

That's just ridiculous. Especially after the 9.00 PM watershed. But then it's an American channel. Pity, because I would have liked to see some others in that series but it's not worth it if they're all going to be butchered.
