This review is from: Timerider: The Adventure of Lyle Swann [VHS] (VHS Tape)

highly entertainig. has good acting cast. great music.great comic moments.present and in the past story line. love scenes, a western. harsh language. shoot-em up. vengance. the best motor cycle photo/documentary/video i have ever seen. feel like i could ride a bike naturally after watching this movie.
slick, well thought out, well made. bravo!!!!!a keeper!!!!

i felt robbed when i bought the dvd version and found that one of the two ending, main eliments were missing why did they do that?!a softer rating sellout? that ruined the story line!!! buy the vhs version and see the way the producer wanted you to see it.

This movie is one of the first innovative time travel movies of the modern genre. One little known fact is that it was directed by Michael Nesmith (of Monkees fame) and has some excellent toungue-in-cheek moments. A must see and probably own. I'll buy the DVD if it's ever released.

5.0 out of 5 stars Why did they change the ending?, July 8, 2003

By 

Phil Sause (Joppa, MD United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Timerider: The Adventure of Lyle Swann [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I saw this flick in the movies when it was released and have a VHS copy I recorded from cable. Great flick. I never get tired of watching it. At the end, reaction of the outlaws when the...well I don't want to spoil it.

But speaking of the end. I picked up a DVD copy from somewhere (I forget where) and the changed the scene dealing with the demise of Peter Coyote's character. In the original release he quite literally, gets cut of at the ankles by the tail rotor of the, you know. In the release I have he is left whinning on a rock like a little bitc...baby.

What's up with this?
