- One minute and thirty five seconds were cut from the theatrical version to get a PG certificate in the UK. A further three seconds where also cut to get a PG for the video release. These cuts remove a lot of the "crude humour". The cuts are as follows:
- The raccoon rescue is edited, mostly cutting shots of the clearly distressed animal.
- The scene of Ace casting shadows on the projector slide has been edited so that his shadow is going after Gahjii's neck instead of his groin.
- Ace's line "Excuse me. Your balls are showing! Bumble bee tuna!"
- Ace's snorting in the hut has been reduced.
- Likewise, when everyone is exiting the hut in hysterics, the shot cuts away earlier due to the graphic details.
- The shot of Ace masturbating is missing.
- When Ace is lecturing Quinn, the shot of Ace prodding his eyeball has been reduced. This could be due to strong language and/or imitable technique.
- After removing an apple core from the tribesman, Ace pushing the baby out of the mother's tummy is missing, as well as the shot of the father catching the baby.
- The Warrior stomping on Ace's crotch and ripping the spears out of his legs.
- In the Spanish and German DVD release in 1999, the scene of Ace pushing the baby out of a Wachootoo's stomach it's cut.
- In 2016, the uncut version was released on Blu-Ray Disc in the UK, still retaining its 'PG' rating, however no record of a BBFC re-submission was documented. In 2019, the uncut version of the film was re-submitted to the BBFC by Arrow Films, where it was awarded a '12' certificate and subsequently released on DVD & Blu-Ray Disc. This marks the first time the film has officially been rated in its uncut form in the UK.
- The network television version adds a line of dialogue at the end of the rhino scene.
- An extra line of dialogue was cut from the scene where Ace violently sneezes in front of the Wachati tribe, where Ace utters afterwards, "I am fighting something."
- The scene in which Ace pushes the baby out of the mothers stomach is cut from the NBC version and the German release.
