The weird problem with current release movies on planes is that they are heavily edited for time and content. So much so, that it's almost a different movie.

This summer I watched "Life" on a Condor flight from FRA to SAN. The movie on the plane ran 85 mins. I was shocked how short it was at the time. Then I watched it on Amazon and it ran at 110 mins and was way different.

You may be missing out!
