This was bound to happen sometime. John Woo’s Chinese epic two part film, “Red Cliff” will be getting a theaterical release in the U.S. sometime in the fall. While the Chinese version was split into two different parts, the U.S. version will be one whole film. The U.S. version will be 150 minutes long which means they will have to edit a lot of scenes out.

Great news. I’ve been wanting to see this, it sounds like an interesting film. It’ll probably be only playing in selected theatres in the U.S. not nationwide, so hopefully I’ll get to see this. The film looks very interesting…
