OVERALL: Draw
The R1 2-Disc UE for 2 cuts of the film and extras. Do note the R1 from Image is a double feature with "The General" while the Image/Kino edition includes some short films.
Additionally the R0 Australian, German and UK Cinema Club Releases also contain exclusive extras
The choice is yours as to what is more important.
NOTE:
The UK Cinema Club and German releases both seem to be rehashes of a French release by MK2 but we don't have full and reliable specs for them so if you have them or access to a reliable review then please let us know via the forums.
