Both the R2 UK and R4 Defintive Edition 2-disc sets for being UNCUT, having all the extras and with a FULL Bitrate DTS track. The R1 CE comes in a close second, but does not have the feature to watch the deleted scenes as part of the film.
NOTE: The making-of featurette on the US, Holland and France release is the same thing as "The Beginning" featurette on the UK and Australia release.
