- The Code Red version has the longer international version as well as extras.

- At 50:34, after the dialogue "No, first I want the woman!", the following sequence is missing: "You have seen them, right?", "What do you think of her?", "Something special, not like other women. Her skin is like velvet", "Brunette? Blonde? But not about red hair?", "The most beautiful redhead I saw before.", "You know what they say about redheads. They are everywhere redhead. Ha, ha!", *Fire exchange*, "Remember well that he is a great hero?", "He's all", "Huh? - Half Blood damned! Only with the best of his friend. And now he has this red-haired lady", *Shot*, "Go to hell. Come on, people!" (0:59).
- At 1:10:27, after the dialogue "Who is the opinion, I was not the right man to settle accounts with Rocco to come here and take over the job for me.", the following reply is missing: "I take this up with assassins.
