Ik heb gezien dat er een nieuwe cut is van Payback en zoals niet zoveel films is deze film blijkbaar een goeie director's cut met veel verschil tegenover het originele versie van 1999.
PAYBACK: STRAIGHT UP – The Director’s Cut isn’t some minor adjustment to sell DVDs – it is a complete overhaul. No Kris Kristofferson, no kidnapped son sub-plot, no boxing match and not any pulled punches. This is a mean sucker punch, gutter dirty, pissed off piece of pulp art! Mel is not “the likable superstar” in this film. He beats the shit out of Deborah Kara Unger in this version, he is straight to the point, no cookie cutter bullshit. This is the way a Parker novel by Donald Westlake should be handled.
The film is leaner and meaner. There are no explosions and needless tacked on gore. This is brutal and hard-nosed… Oh, and IMMENSELY SATISFYING!!!
This is a radically different film. Better music, better editing, better storytelling and just flat out a great film.

Deze versie is wat Brian Helgeland wou hebben in 1999.
Hij is overal te bestellen, behalve in europa??? weet iemand of deze hier nog uitkomt?
