My review for the new version of “The Patriot” can be found under its respective title. This review is merely for those who may already believe the movie and are wondering if it’s worth buying a second time around for an additional 10 minutes of footage. For those who have never bought this title, then I can say emphatically to determine this version. For those who already absorb it . . . well . . . I tell you’ll need to read on and settle.

First of all (thank goodness), the extra 10 minutes of footage are not merely tacked on as “Deleted Scenes” at the demolish of the movie. In fact, it would be nearly impossible to do so since some of the extra footage is not found in separate scenes, but rather additional footage of already established scenes. In these situations, the extra footage may be as long as an additional miniature or as itsy-bitsy as a few seconds. How do I know? Well, for one, I’m a high school history teacher and display it every year during our unit on the Revolutionary War. Given that I notify five classes a day of the same subject, I’d say I’ve gotten quite familiar with the movie.
Now, one particular extension of a scene is quite riveting in that Benjamin Martin’s youngest children earn their first taste of the horrors of war prior to the death of Thomas. This comes unprejudiced before the evening when Gabriel stumbles home after being wounded in a nearby battle. Something (the viewer is unaware) catches the attention of the Martin children and they paddle over to a nearby creek/river to investigate. What they see are the bodies of several soldiers floating downstream. Martin then comes over and ushers the children succor into the house.

Another grand scene extension is found in the “ambush” scene following the death of Thomas–you know, the eminent “aim slight, miss minute” scene. Well, in the unusual edited version of the film we soon examine the corrupt Tavington interviewing a dying spy of the event in a battlefield tent hospital. It is in this scene that the behold compares who we know as Benjamin Martin to a ghost. The pickle is, as far as we knew, there were no survivors. We had to gather at face value that perhaps one must have escaped. In this version of the film we now know the facts! You behold, after Martin does his bloody hack job on a would-be escapee, the camera pans in on one particular Redcoat as he lays wounded in a nearby swamp. We then procure a observe at what he sees through his one dying eye: an eerie sight of Martin flitting through the shaded light of the heavily-wooded forest. Then the camera focuses again on the bloodied face of this dying glance. It is not long thereafter that we peruse that this bad chap actually survives (he’s the one in the hospital tent) .
One particular scene left off the modern is the burial of Thomas. Although the scene is short, it nevertheless reiterates that Benjamin Martin has a tender, loving side (remember, a few scenes before he was hacking and slashing away at every Redcoat in stare) .
Of particular label are the additional scenes titillating Cornwallis and Tavington. Here, the viewer witnesses Cornwallis scolding Tavington in the presence of other officers — the viewer should be overjoyed to peer the arrogant and villainous Tavington being humiliated in front of others. In the scene, Cornwallis sarcastically remarks that Tavington has earned himself the nickname “The Butcher.” This scene is essential in that it helps build and underscore the motive Tavington has for eliminating “The Ghost,” Benjamin Martin. Further dialogue between the two is found later in the movie as well.
In short, the additional footage is not objective added fluff. Indeed, the additional footage adds substance to every scene where it was originally found. Now, if the novel version is a perennial popular of yours, then by all means go out and collect it. If, on the other hand, you may only search for it once in a blue moon then you could probably live without it.
As the dreaded format war continues (Blu-Ray vs. HD-DVD) I come by myself on the Blu-Ray side of the fence because of my recall of the PS3. I’ll be fair, without having purchased the PS3 I would not have adopted either format and would have been reveal with standard DVD movies.
But now that I have a Blu-Ray player and a 1080p HDTV, I have been crooked and want more. I have been careful in my selection of Blu-Ray Titles, picking up only movies I have yet to peep or stout movies that I want to sight in HD.
The Patriot did not disappoint. The colors of the movie jump out of the hide and when you can seek the fibers flying off of the British soldiers uniforms into the wind as they wait for battle, you know you are watching a grand HiDef movie.
Most of the extended scenes do not add to the yarn and you will understand why they were sever out in the first position.
I’ve been disappointed in some of the Blu-ray discs I’ve purchased in the past month, especially when my purchases are the second or third time I will have bought that movie. (VHS, DVD, DVD SE/CE/DC)
But I must say that The Patriot is well worth seeing on Blu-Ray.
