OVERALL: Draw
The US Shout! Factory and UK 88 Films releases for the differing exclusive extras and including the original and extended versions of the film.
For the extended Japanese version, the Japanese release is the only release currently available, though note it is not English friendly. Also note in Japan, there are 2 different editions available from Paramount: The extended Japanese Theatrical version Blu-ray and the original Hong Kong version Blu-ray.
For the shorter US version, the standalone Echo Bridge release for the original aspect ratio.
Note:
The UK 88 Films' release is from a 2K master (same as Universal). The Mediumrare, Splendid, HKVideo (HK version only; French is genuine HD) and Kam & Ronson use the same upscaled master.
Paramount uses its own HD master, as do the Echo Bridge releases.
GENERAL NOTES:
The film exists in a number of versions:
- the original Hong Kong Category I all ages cut (107 minutes) with shots that crop or remove the nude body double shots of Ada in the shower but not the quicker flash when Elsa yanks her towel away later;
- the Japanese extended cut (114 minutes) which may represent a rough cut – the Japanese version came out a month after the Hong Kong version - since many of the added bits are brief extensions and additional shots but also censors the instances of female nudity;
- the English export version (107 minutes) which is uncut and includes the scenes of female nudity;
- the redubbed American release version (90 minutes) featuring Chan’s voice which trims a lot of exposition including the introductory scenes with Momoko and Elsa, as well as replacing the original Chris Babida score with a new one by Stephen Endelman. Although rated PG-13 it does retain Ada's nude scene;
- and the extended cut (117 minutes) on the 88 Films Blu-ray which is identical to the Japanese version for the first half of the film - although it does feature the nude shots of Ada's body double in the shower - but features several more short extensions during the second half as well as some longer bits including a few discovered rooms in the underground base.
The original version was mixed in mono. The Cantonese stereo surround mix on the 88 Films Blu-ray is a track that was created for Hong Kong laserdisc and VHS releases. The English surround mix for the Dimension Films cut is a different mix entirely.
