Very fun movie


I watched this movie for the first time in my life couple weeks ago and i must say, it was great fast paced fun movie that i'm surprised is not mentioned more. I think that everything is alright, actors, script, action scenes, soundtrack and score, i specially loved some undertones that movie has about certain things from real life.

In short, it was a great movie and i sure will re-watch it few more times just to "catch" everything from it.

My one problem would be the fact that i heard how movie was heavily edited in post production to be shorter and how Jerry Goldsmith's score had to be replaced after re-editing. While Goldsmith's original score is available to buy and hear, there are no deleted scenes available to see anywhere.

I did see parts of one deleted scene in theatrical trailer. It was from the fight between Sykes and Kipling that happens after Harcourt overdoses and "dies". From what i heard during the fight Kipling was just about to kill Sykes with suitcase containing the drug for Newcomers but George/San Francisco saves him by shooting Kipling with Sykes's handgun sending him and suitcase into the fire of two burning cars.

I managed to find original screenplay for the movie so i will make sure to read it to see what other scenes could be cut. But still, like i said, it would be nice to see deleted scenes.
