I read a review of the uk cinema release of this title in the Independant today. Amongst a fair amount of sarcasm they mentioned that the film has been released with an abismal comedy english dub that doesnt fit the movie at all.

anyone seen this yet, is it true??? I'll be totally gutted if it is as I was looking forward to seeing this on the big screen!

:(

i saw a funny preview in bangkok in the cinema, looked funny, although they changed the dialogue to thai which was too bad...

The only upside is the R1 DVD has both this cut and the DC which unlike the HK is properly integrated into the film.
