Is it 122 mins/119 mins or the advertised 182 mins?

I saw that, too. I think the 182 min. includes the 60 minutes of deleted scenes and whatnot...

Yes, the diector's cut only runs 122 minutes (3 minutes of extra footage). The 182 minutes refers to the additional deleted scenes and such.

The time I put on the review is always for the running time of the actual film only...

well,

Reel, and DVDBoxOffice both list the movie as 182 mins quite blatantly, which suggests that Trimark is lying to consumers.

Another case of hoodwinking, was by a reel rep who stated that the new Mulan is extended and anamorphic, yeah right.

Another proof that online retailers make life hell, just like dopes in B&Ms.

Easy sign of good retailers...you end up chatting/emailing for ages unexpectedly.

yumbo stop it. One thing I hate about dvd enthusiests is that they always have to make a conspiracy over every little thing.

well,

if you're out of the US, pay up to $8 in shipping, 40% in import duty (in this instance it will be $10), that's $36 for a movie I already have, not a good one to start with, based on misleading advertising.

I call that a breach of consumer rights. But of course, domestic consumers like yourself are too ignorant to realise issues like this.

It is a valid issue and certainly no little thing that must be taken to task. It is not a conspiracy theory.

Are you going to offer to pay for it, or go through the tedious refund process where I lose the non-refundable duty?

Try thinking for once. Attitudes like yours are puke-inducing.
