In theater movies are projected at 24fps (Image per second) and when a TS is made it's using a PAL cammera which is running at 25fps, this is also why when watching TS you will see scan lines, because movie is not projected at the same speed.
This being said, do the math, 24fps vs 25fps means an increase of 4% in frame rate, if you check IMDB movie is 117min long so 117min long at 24fps is actually 112min at 25fps (117-4%) and 117-112 is 4 minutes, so 4 minutes are not mssing it's just because of frame rate, then there's obviously the mpaa dots removal they mention but nuking rls because of that is stupid.
Cr4P, I think your logic is wrong. 117 mins is 117 mins regardless of how many frames are in 1 second. I can see why you may be confused in terms of taking a reel of film and playing it back at a lower FPS rate, but filming a TS with a PAL camera is not going to magically make a movie longer or shorter.
For a typical TS, the video quality is not that bad, however, if you've seen the movie in theaters, you'll know how much is taken away from the whole experience. The visuals are the best part of this movie. Back when the Sin City TS was released, it was one of the best, because the movie was presented in black and white with a few spots of color. This movie, although shot in a similar fashion (comic book style), does not get the same treatment.
I usually vote on releases based on how good it is for what it is (e.g. a great cam doesn't mean it's better than a poor telecine). In this case, even though it's a decent TS, I have to rate it lower because it takes away too much from the movie. So, I rate the video a 5.
And the audio is what it is.
