OVERALL: Draw
The R1 SuperBit release includes a superior transfer and DTS audio but extras wise it is nearly identical to the German and UK releases.
The Benelux release includes DTS audio and the best selection of extras.
Do note the R4 includes an exclusive featurette but no DTS audio.
Avoid the R5 Russian releases; the non-budget releases do have DTS but all of them are non-anamorphic, in a wrong aspect ratio and lose the extras.
The choice is yours as to what is more important. -
CUTS:
- R0 Serbia- Delta Video - No cuts (110:25 PAL).
- R1 SuperBit America- Columbia Tristar Home Entertainment - No cuts (114:49 NTSC).
- R2 Benelux- Universal Pictures - No cuts (109:57 PAL).
- R2 Germany- Columbia Tristar Home Entertainment - No cuts (110:24 PAL).
- R2 Festival Series Scandinavia- Sandrew Metronome - No cuts (109:56 PAL).
