OVERALL: Blu-ray B

Currently the only release we have specs for.

Note about the differences in the theatrical and director's cuts: The 4-minute difference between the two versions is misleading. There's actually about 15-20 minutes of footage that's different. The HK censors didn't like the original cut so Tsui Hark had to completely change his movie, shooting about 30 minutes of footage in a few days to make the movie acceptable to the censors.

Information on differences between the versions can also be found at Movie-Censorship.
CUTS:
- Blu-ray B France- Spectrum - No cuts - Includes the International Theatrical Version (96:19) and the Director's Cut (99:18)
