From DVDCompare:
R2 United Kingdom- Fox - Yes, this is the same as the original UK theatrical version of the film which had one altered scene:
1. The cut of the magistrate's throat being slit is cut on R2 via a reframing of the shot done by Gibson at the behest of The BBFC. On R1 the shot is seen full on whilst on R2 it is obscured by camera technique/reframing.
It is therefore DIFFERENT to the US version of the film. For more information, go to www.imdb.com
Do you think the Region A release on BD would not have this cut?
