OVERALL: Draw

The German release has 2 cuts of the film, with 5.1 sound, and at the correct speed of 24fps, but no extras.
The UK re-release has a different 2 cuts of the film, one with Stereo sound, the other with 5.1 sound but only in SD, and a number of extras.

NB/ Corrected discs for the original UK release are available by contacting Patriot Films directly. There is nothing on the face of the corrected discs to indicate they come from a second pressing, and the re-release uses the same UPC as the original.

The film exists in four versions:
1. The US theatrical version. This was the initial edit that the US distributor rush printed 250 prints of before Terry Jones could fine tune his cut (107 minutes).
2. The International theatrical version (103 minutes).
3. The UK theatrical version. Terry Jone's preferred theatrical version on first release (93 minutes).
4. The Director's Son's version. The proper director's cut completed in 2006 (79 minutes).
