Saw it last night!!
It was quite a experience, it was a tad long even in its missing 7th reel version but I enjoyed it. It was not a start to finish story type movie as it goes back and forth in time but it was VERY different and very Noe. Use of colours and music was impressive and it shows what a good director Noe is. Even the bad reviews comment on the good direction skill shown.
The UK dvd release is meant to feature the "full" version but there are 3 version out there now, the UK Theatrical version, international theatrical and directors cut.
The French DVD/Blu out December will feature International theatrical version as well as the directors cut which is nerly 3 hours long. The UK cut was meant to be shown at 25fps instead of 24 so if that makes the UK theatrical cut 2 hours 17 mins at 25fps while the theatrical cut at 25fps would be 2 hours 34. Info is on BBFC site.
