Lt. A.K. Waters (Bruce Willis) is sent into the heart of war-torn Africa on a hazardous mission to rescue Dr. Lena Hendricks (Monica Bellucci), a U.S. citizen who runs a missionary. When the beautiful doctor refuses to abandon the refugees in her care, Lt. Waters finds himself having to choose between following orders and the dictates of his own conscience. Together, they begin a dangerous trek through the deadly jungle, all the while being pursued by a rebel militiagroup, with only one goal in mind: to assassinate Lt. Waters' unit and the refugees in his care. Set Contains: The director's extended cut of Tears of the Sun is about 20 minutes longer than the theatrical version, adding a significant amount of new material and trimming a little. 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 ## 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 ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bruce Willis awesome *by A*** on June 14, 2025* great movie ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review of Tears of the Sun *by G***1 on March 3, 2025* A fine movie. Action and some politics. Respects to Bruce Willis. --- ## 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.us/products/82644300-tears-of-the-sun-directors-extended-cut](https://www.desertcart.us/products/82644300-tears-of-the-sun-directors-extended-cut) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-04-27*
