Film length


Can anybody explain why the runtime on IMDB states 120 mins for the USA and 85 mins for the UK? Seeing as I don't believe the runtime includes commercials anywhere in the world, this would imply that 35 minutes were cut for the UK release???? What on Earth could there be in it which needed this amount of editing?

The version shown on Channel 5 last week was 120 minutes, including adverts.

This is a made for TV movie, I think all stuff made for TV in the US includes the adverts in the running time.

plus its actually 89 minutes not 85 so they should have said 90 minutes as its closer.

It was on tv a few days ago and I recorded it.

I thought it might be a tv pilot. I enjoyed it.
