details

• The R1 DVD has four commentaries as opposed to just one.
  
  
• The UK theatrical release had cuts ordered by the British Board of Film Classification in two of the fistfight scenes, on the grounds of "excessively sustained violence". The BBFC-approved UK versions, both on film and video are missing four seconds. In the scene where the gangster beats up Brad Pitt, an overhead shot as Pitt receives a punch to the face is completely missing, and in the scene where Edward Norton beats Jared Leto's face to a pulp, the third punch in the first load of hits has been cut and several hits as his face becomes bloodied during the last load of hits have been removed in two cuts.
  
  
• In the Japanese version of the movie, due to censorship rules over showing genitalia, there are no penis shots in the whole movie.
  
  
• The UK version is cut for violence, notably Tyler Durden's beating and Angel Face's beating. As of 2005, the cuts imposed by the BBFC have been waived.
