They had the cheek to release the badly dubbed version in both the U.S AND the UK recently!!! Why? Well first thing tomorrow I'll call them and demand an explanation!
Within the UK, here's the phone number: 0207 984 6400.
They cannot and should not get away with this, it's against the law! They're making money on a blu-ray of a film that has been tampered with! They are not selling the original film and all their advertising and packaging does not warn customers of this! And yet the DVD available in the UK DOES have the original soundtrack!!! Lets get on the phone & demand that they release the ORIGINAL version!

And there was me going to trade in my dvd for the bluray! Hopefully warner uk will rectify this, as this is a mistake, as weve always had the original soundtrack on the uk version.

Absolutely! I called Warner UK today and they've had many complaints, obviously. They're waiting for their HQ in California to get back to them as they seriously need to re-release the blu-ray with the CORRECT AUDIO!

Yeah, and may I add, the IQ is pretty rubbish, it looks like an upscaled DVD

Yes it does & many have posted that on amazon! Warner UK have e-mailed me saying they're doing the blu-ray again with original audio & it should be available "before August" but I doubt they'll rectify the PQ too!

Burgerswat - I'm curious, where are you from? The reason I ask is that, I think the OP (and others) have been upset about the 'comedy' accent job with the dub.
I suppose it would be like a great American crime movie like 'The Godfather' being re-edited with some comedy Italian accents.

Well said DBloodnok! That audio dub was awful. I think the PQ is quite good though & don't have a problem with that. The comment by Burgerswat is one on it's own & the many other reviews all basically say the same thing.

I don't have issues with grain, I love it
The overall sharpness and definition is the problem, it needs a bigger resolution scan for that
And the dubbing is worthless, the original accent is perfectly understandable to me, and English its not my primary language

That's a perfect summary, Metalworks! Excellent.
