Paramount Pictures Raul May 13, 2016 3:48 am How about a writer's cut? Seven years after seeing his original vision butchered under studio interference as well as his star's, director Brian Helgeland finally was given the chance to piece together his director's cut under the name Payback: Straight Up.

Along with reinstating the original third act, this version represents a return to the gritty world of '70s filmmaking that was the groundwork of the production up until Paramount got cold feet and ordered extensive reshoots. Your AMC Ticket Confirmation# can be found in your order confirmation email. The only thing that makes him the hero is that the guy who has his money is even worse than he is. Don't get me wrong, I like this director's cut of Payback a lot. We won’t be able to verify your ticket today, but it’s great to know for the future.Regal

And there are few better examples of this than 1999’s With help from his lover Rosie (Maria Bello), he works his way through the underbelly of Chicago, dealing with crooks, dirty cops and working his way up to The Syndicate (Kris Kristofferson, James Coburn and William Devane) and clawing back by any means necessary what is his.With two versions of the film on this disc, theatrical and director’s cut, there is some strong contrast here to keep you intrigued.The theatrical version keeps the gritty 70s feel and for that fact the transfer onto 1080p isn’t as impressive as you would hope. There are differences from the first cut that Helgeland submitted that was floating around as a bootleg for years - the fire truck diversion to get into the outfit hotel and the infamous elevator scene where Porter blinds a henchman are missing, while this time round the money doesn't end up in the hands of a homeless guy - but while it's a shame these aren't included on the DVD, it's a leaner, meaner movie, playing it down and dirty (none of Boorman's "Is he really dead?"
So he steals from a homeless guy? In general the new version has been tightened a little bit and thus runs a little shorter than the first version.

Pride I can appreciate the intent of the directors cut but that version of the movie is pretty mean spirited it lacks charm, and the main character is so unlikeable he can be hard to root for.New comments cannot be posted and votes cannot be castPress J to jump to the feed. However, I think what Mel Gibson did with the theatrical version is so much better.

I'm not sure why, it isn't clever or anything, but it all just works well.I much preferred the theatrical ending, the director's cut was completely anti-climatic and boring.Gibson explains the whole thing on the dvd extras, I bought it but mistake, and was horribly disappointedI'm going to have to side with the theatrical cut as well. This, however, is more than made up for by the ambience of the film itself and the fact it is a bit of a tongue-in-cheek homage to the novel on which it is based.The main characters, although broken in some way or another, are likeable and you are rooting for them, and the villains are a delicious mix of powerful and evil and any and all comeuppances are richly deserved.The director’s cut, however, is a totally different kettle of fish with the tone and characters being much darker and a new soundtrack indicating this is not going to be as pleasant a journey. Running some ten minutes less than the theatrical version, there's no convoluted kidnapping subplot, no Kris Kristofferson character in this version, only a couple of shots of prominently-billed John Glover at the end, though sadly no Angie Dickinson either: although originally providing a link with John Boorman's film as the voice of the syndicate boss in Helgeland's first cut, for some reason she's here replaced by Sally Kellerman on speaker phone.

Die Kinoversion ist aus stilistischen Gründen in einem kühlen Blaugrau gehalten, der Director’s Cut jedoch nicht. Sie finden Rezensionen und Details zu einer vielseitigen Blu-ray- und DVD-Auswahl – neu und gebraucht. Much like Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut, Payback: Straight Up - The Director's Cut has a significant number of changes, ranging from new scenes added to other scenes being removed/changed. The plot, characters and overall atmosphere is undoubtedly cool and I feel like if someone hadn't seen the other cut, they'd be extremely impressed.
