Title: Terrific movie, American version is bad though
Product review: This is a great movie, I rented it when visiting a friend in Australia. I have since rented the US version, and it is not the same movie. As the other reviews say, much has been changed. Even the music has been replaced, so I've heard (its been years since I saw the original version so I wouldn't have caught that on my own). The Australian feel to it helped make it great. Now they've dubbed over everything with American phrases and names, and have simply cut out a few other things. There is now a DVD of it out in Australia, but it isn't widescreen. However, as much as I love widescreen, I'd rather hear the original soundtrack and have the scenes in place. A DVD with both versions for Americans would be nice even, though I'd never watch the American release as it sucks. Don't watch the US version!
