OVERALL: Draw
The US Dragon Dynasty release has an exclusive interview plus interviews and a featurette, with lossless 5.1 and lossy original mono audio.
The German release has the interviews and featurette from the US release and includes two versions of the film, though it only has lossy audio.
Information on differences between the Hong Kong version and the Taiwan version can be found at Movie-Censorship.
Note the longer preview version screened in Taiwan before director John Woo made his final edits for the Hong Kong release and is NOT the director's preferred cut.
