Product: Midway (Collector's Edition) (1976)
Rating: 3.0
Midway - edited and no surround sound??????
I saw the movie play in a theatre and I was greatly impressed.I still enjoy the movie BUT! at the same time I am disappointed.When it was released first on VHS and now on DVD I was greatly disappointed to see how much film footage has been cut out from the original theatrical release.In its original release MIDWAY ran for almost 2 hours 45 minutes.On VHS and DVD it runs for 2 hours 10 minutes. What happened to all the othe extra scenes???Where is the Battle of the Coral Sea which was shown in the original movie?Furthermore they cut out the surround sound and made it Mono.It is ridiculous that the have a Special Feature on Surround Sound, but the DVD was made in Mono sound.And they call this DVD a Special Collector's Edition???Come on Universal give us the full extended theatrical release along with 5.1 Surround Sound.
