Tomb Raider R2 - Uncut ?

[Jimmyboy]

Can anyone confirm whether or not the R2 release will be cut or not ?.
If anyone's interested play have dropped the R2 price from £15 to £13.99 which is the cheapest I've seen it going for.

As the UK theatrical cut of the film was butchered :D to get a 12 certificate i'd say the R2 DVD release is also, as it self is a 12 certificate.


Cuts from Theatrical Version....


* To obtain this category cuts of 0m 3s were required. The cuts were Cuts for category.
Company chose to significantly reduce sight of a flick knife in several scenes, removing in particular material which appeared to glamorise the weapon , in order to achieve a 12. An uncut 15 was available to the distributor. The distributor also sought and was given advice during post-production which resulted in a reduction in violence in the final fight sequence (including the complete removal of a headbutt) prior to formal submission.

But arent ratings different for home release ?.

[Simon Basso]

Yes they are; they're tougher.

I'm pretty sure it won't, looking at the BBFC. I haven't seen the film, but either way I won't be buying the DVD of it.

Get the region 1/French region 2 if you want an uncut version.
