There Are A Few Minor Differences In This Version From The U.S Theatrical, The E.U Theatrical And The E.U Director's Cut...
A Few Differences On This Version-

- has cut the chants "Kill the MacLeod!" from the flashback scene at the beginning of the film compared to other releases.

- shows MacLeod's girlfriend wishing him luck before the first battle in Scotland

- has "whooshing" sound effects added before the MacLeod vs Fazil and the Ramirez vs Kurgan fights to indicate that one immortal has detected the presence of another,the European cut and U.S theatrical do not have this effect

- has a WWII flashback sequence showing MacLeod rescuing Rachael where he tells her ''It's a kind of magic'', some versions have this scene cut out.

- has a scene between Connor and Brenda talking at a zoo. The most important thing about this scene is that Kurgan can be seen in the background trailing the twosome. This solves the continuity problem in other versions about how Kurgen finds Brenda's apartment in the next scene.

- has MacLeod's dueling partner on Boston Common (remember, he kept stabbing MacLeod to no avail?) shooting his assistant for being annoying.

- during the scene when Connor and Ramirez jump off the cliff, you can hear Ramirez yell, "MacLeod, this is the Quickening!" but in this version Ramirez and Connor just yell as they jump.

- the European Director's cut differs some in dialog. Example: When Connor falls from the boat and end up on the sea floor, the U.S version dialog says: "I'm alive" European version says: "I'm alive...I can breath..." shortly followed by "I'll split you in half!" (spoken in the same moment as Connor draws his sword under water)

- as the Kurgan is driving into New York, the opening guitar to the Queen song "Gimme The Prize" can be heard over the news report and the vocals start when the Kurgan pops in the tape. However in this version, the opening guitar part has been taken out and the song starts at the vocals when the Kurgan pops in the cassette.

Movie Runtime Is Approx 116 Minutes
