Calling the new material "never-before-seen footage" is a stretch, though, as most of it was included as deleted scenes in the original DVD . While the new DVD includes no input from director Antoine de Fuqua, in his commentary on the original DVD he did mention that he regretted having to cut some scenes due to length. The new material mostly adds to the film's political context, and introduces a couple of small but important characters earlier. The fighting scenes are the same, but there are a few more graphic moments--a charred corpse here, a feeding vulture there. By offering more footage without Bruce Willis, it becomes less Die Hard in the Jungle , and the ending is certainly more hopeful, so the new version is probably a more interesting film overall. If you already have the first DVD, though, it's a tougher sell because you've seen almost all the new footage already, and you lose Fuqua's commentary (plus the less-interesting "fact track" and brief writers' commentary). The only bonus features retained are the two featurettes and the interactive map. --David Horiuchi After a West African president’s family is assassinated and civil unrest is rampant, a top secret team is deployed to the far reaches of the jungle to rescue a US doctor acting as a missionary. She insists the US forces rescue all of her charges. As a result, the group falls under rebel attacks when it is revealed that the son of the deposed West African president is among those being saved. Review: Tears of the sun - Great movie Review: I didnt know this was an early blu-ray released... - **UPDATED 02/26/2009, THIS COMMENT YOU ARE ABOUT TO READ IS VERY OLD, PLEASE GO TO COMMENT PAGE OF THIS AND READ MY NEW POST." I heard that early blu-ray releases titles wasn't that amazing til new titles came out in between Christmas 2006 and February 2007 so, well i just had to take a look at this movie because I seen it once on tv but i am happy that this movie is in perfect condition with picture and sound quality from blu-ray... I believe it is not the blu-ray, it just what kind of tv and what kind of blu-ray player you are using. The only way to have all the excitement that you will need "digital equipment" 1. You need an HDTV that contains 720p or 1080p.. I dont trust 1080i. Make sure your HDTV has an intergraded or HD turner built-in.. if it dont.. get an set up box. Make sure your HDTV have an HDMI or Component connection.. I recommend HDMI which is far the best possible picture and sound quality. 2. Late blu-ray players released are far the best as Sony or Panasonic BD players. I have an Playstation 3 which it plays blu-ray the best. 3. This is option but to me is an requirement if you want surround sound theater like.. Make sure you get any receiver with 600 watts or over with Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS 5.1 built-in. Dolby Digtial EX and DTS-ES 6.1 are my favorites and superior. Some blu-ray disc contains DTS-HD or Dolby TrueHD. DTS-HD does work on my DTS-ES receiver, so i guess it don't matter as long you have DTS and Dolby 5.1 or 6.1 even 7.1, and up.(it is up to you) Conclusion: It is time to start using Digital instead of Analog.. Blu-ray Company is doing great with their business. Tears of the Sun is very great movie.. keep you focusing and thinking. Sometime you might feel like you in the movie cause of lot of dramatization emtional feelings. It looks better than I first saw it on TV but this is blu-ray taking over and makes it looks new again. Great sound, Great picture, Great movie, Great Actors, and Great Score to make 5 stars!!! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Contributor | Antoine Fuqua, Arnold Rifkin, Bruce Willis, Cole Hauser, Ian Bryce, Michael Lobell, Monica Bellucci, Revolution Production Services LLC, Tom Skerritt Contributor Antoine Fuqua, Arnold Rifkin, Bruce Willis, Cole Hauser, Ian Bryce, Michael Lobell, Monica Bellucci, Revolution Production Services LLC, Tom Skerritt See more | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 4,384 Reviews | | Format | Subtitled | | Genre | Action | | Language | English | | Runtime | 2 hours and 22 minutes | ## Product Details - **Genre:** Action - **Format:** Multiple Formats, Dolby, AC-3, NTSC, Color, Director's Cut, Widescreen, Subtitled - **Contributor:** Monica Bellucci, Antoine Fuqua, Tom Skerritt, Ian Bryce, Cole Hauser, Revolution Production Services LLC, Arnold Rifkin, Bruce Willis, Michael Lobell - **Language:** English - **Runtime:** 2 hours and 12 minutes ## Images ![Tears Of The Sun (Director's Extended Cut) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51FDT1DHQ0L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tears of the sun *by C***M on February 5, 2026* Great movie ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I didnt know this was an early blu-ray released... *by D***S on February 18, 2007* **UPDATED 02/26/2009, THIS COMMENT YOU ARE ABOUT TO READ IS VERY OLD, PLEASE GO TO COMMENT PAGE OF THIS AND READ MY NEW POST."

Great sound, Great picture, Great movie, Great Actors, and Great Score to make 5 stars!!! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worth Watching *by B***E on July 3, 2014* I've seen this movie three times now, and it's a favorite. Not because of the subject-matter because that itself is horrifying, but because of the underlying message. Did they 100% accurately portray military tactics and decisions--I'm not knowledgeable enough to comment on that. I do know I watched it with someone who's served two tours and he said that with the exception of a few things, they were fairly accurate for a Hollywood movie. Did they accurately portray the conflict in Nigeria? I know a little of what goes on in those countries because of friends who do work over there, but I also know that some of it has been exaggerated . . . at least in part for present day. I believe they were trying to convey conflict that has and does exist in many countries around the world. It's not a movie meant to be "loved" or even to be in awe of. There's a lot of internal conflict for the characters, and that is one of the most important aspects of the movie. The message is clear, powerful, and obvious, and that is the point. As for the superficial stuff, all of the actors are excellent in their roles, the photography is beautiful, the drama is powerful. It's Hollywood, so they're going to take some liberties, and that should be expected. There aren't overdone special effects that make no sense (sure, they're going to make things go boom). If you watch this movie with those things in mind, you just might be able to understand what they were trying to do (aside from just creating an action flick). It's not for the faint of heart or the overly critical, but in my opinion, it's worth watching. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/82644300-tears-of-the-sun-directors-extended-cut](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/82644300-tears-of-the-sun-directors-extended-cut) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-05-20*
