Hi there! Quick update regarding the DVD releases of John Woo's Hard Boiled.
The "R0 United Kingdom - Tartan Video, Original release" is marked as being uncut. It is not - it is the cut version as previously released on VHS. However, the "R0 United Kingdom - Tartan Video, New Release" is indeed uncut, hence the inclusion of the special feature "Cut & uncut scenes comparison". The BBFC passed the film uncut on February 6th 2001 and this uncut version was first released on March 19th 2001. All previous versions on VHS and DVD (and even the original cinema version) were cut for violence.
