Having never seen this, I might give it a watch tonight. Do I go for the original or redux? Redux is longer....right?

Redux definitely – one of my all-time favourite films.

Just don't expect the action of 'We Were Soldiers' or the latest Hollywood blockbuster.

It's a slow burner but it's a damn good watch.

You might be better off with the original imo, if you like it, watch the redux next time as its a bit drawn out. Or maybe you got nowt better to do tonight so what the hell, redux it.

It's Redux or nothing. Buy a cow and remember to kill it at the right moment. This is essential for the ambience.

Pay close attention during the French plantation scene. The entire movie hinges on a crucial 3-minute dialogue within that scene. I won't say any more unless I spoil it for you.

:cool:

Redux is the one with the playboy bunnies right. I like that they had all that footage and the version exists but the actual original cut was the best. Theres no need to watch redux on the first go unless you like longer films


What was your verdict slime
