Please note the following that was omitted from the review :
The DVD is censored. For the cinema's 12-certificate one word was changed
from the following original meaning of SNAFU: Situation Normal, All
Fouled Up', to escape the box-office-death PG-rating that a US cinema
release will receive. As a result, this PG version loses the last three words
of the altered sentence when they could have at least filmed an alternate one.
Another obvious f-word, 80 minutes in, is also dubbed over, but the subtitles
confirm a late one is left in.
