This film is a perfect example for the problems action films have to deal with. Either you want to shoot an entertaining action flick and deal with the typical stereotype kind of charakters or the characters are more important and the result is that the film is much too long for this genre. Whatever: the Theatrical Cut is still the better version, even though the Director's Cut shows some additional violence and sex scenes that seem to be a compensation for the everlasting dialogs to catch the attention of further thugs. The scenes missing in the Theatrical Cut weren't cut out due to censorship because both cuts got the same rating.
