There's a director's cut where Walter Hill inserts comic book style transitions to move from one 'chapter' to another. Kind of cool but slightly disruptive to the pacing.

Yeah, I wasn’t a fan either. I mean, I understand him wanting the hardcore fans to know where the basis of the story came from, but the constant story paneling at each big scene threw it off in a big way.

I disagree though. I have both versions on DVD and prefer the directors cut. I find the comic transitions quite fitting. But then again since we both have expressed opinions, neither of us is actually wrong.

I was so, so, so let down by that. Those comic panels wrecked the movie for me. Luckily, I found a DVD of the original cut, and that's what lives in my collection.

I agree. They took me out of the movie and ruined the allure.

I think they literally tell the story it's based on at the start of the directors cut too.
