The theatrical cut of "Kingdom of Heaven" is rather murky and its characters aren't particularly deep, but I actually prefer it over Ridley Scott's bombastic and overrated "Gladiator." Furthermore, if you truly want to see something great, then the Director's Cut is just the ticket. The exciting battle sequences and grandeur are all still present, while the story this time is told with more clarity and enriched with essential character development. Except for Scott's own "Blade Runner - The Final Cut," no alternative version of a movie has done more to improve its state after its original release.
