3 out of 5 stars Not want I wanted.......2007-05-13

Why do they put the movie on dvd and cut some of the good parts out of the movie? I thought I found this movie, but I was a sucker.

1 out of 5 stars Wow!!! What A Disaster.......2007-03-14

Thanks to the other reviewers who warned of this horrible dvd. Such a fine movie deserves A+ treatment. Hopefully the movie will be re-released with widescreen, total digital restoration, and bonus features. Even though it was made for t.v. it still should be done right.

3 out of 5 stars HEY...QUESTION....????.......2007-01-13

Has anyone ever bought this movie on VHS through amazon? and if so is that version chopped up too?

1 out of 5 stars "Sorry" to all reviewers who purchased the DVD; but "Thanks" for the heads up.......2006-12-30

I am truly sorry to those who purchased the DVD. I read ALL the reviews and some critical scenes seems to be left out. I would have been totally pissed because I know this movie like that back of my hand. Obviously for those who never saw the movie/VHS, they got to enjoy the movie as is, but for those who had the opportunity to see this GREAT movie uncut, I feel the anger and frustration via your words.

I will not get this DVD, because I believe you all when you say they screwed up this DVD.

Maybe we should tell Oprah about this? Flood her with emails about how they chopped up HER film. With Oprah...you never know!

1 out of 5 stars DON'T BUY THIS!.......2006-11-16

They cut major scenes out of this film, which makes no sense to me. This movie needs to be released in its original format. They could have took out the pointless special features and used the full movie. It really makes no sense when the movie comes on TV it is the full version -- very sad!
