Liked this when it came out for the mix of science fiction and noir, and wasn't sure how I was going to take to it without the narration--the director's cut is in every way superior--the events feel more immediate, and even the scene near the end with Hauer, where the best narration was, is elevated. It's clear the director trusted his actors to convey the story. As for the other "cuts," I can't really tell them apart. Nice to have the original again, but this is one of those cases where you ask yourself, "How many times do they think I'm going to buy this movie?" This will be three for me. ( )
