The Optimum Releasing R2 Switchblade Romance version, had a total runtime of 88 mins in my dvd player, but the case info and imdb said 91 minutes.

The R3 version is the Dae Gyung South Korean Uncut one, as above 91 minutes, so I'll check to compare when it arrives. Either way one version I'll pass onto my brother, who's interested.

The world has been split up into DVD 'regions'. Different regioned DVDs will only play in a DVD player that corresponds with the region code of a particular DVD. Unless you have a region free DVD player or run region free software on your Pc, then you'll be able to play any region DVD film

Yeah, but that would be Theatrical running time. You lose roughly 4 minutes for every hundred so 88 minutes would be about right.

The 'Optimum' release is actually one of the best, especially with the extras.

Seams strange, I've checked a couple of other longer R2 films, and the total playtime was pretty much the same as the cover info run time. There may be some discrepancy with what was printed in the info on different versions. I'm glad I've order the R3 one now, I'm interested to see what it's runtime will be in my player.
