OVERALL: Draw

The R2 German (Doppel Deluxe Edition) and 2-Disc UK release - for DTS, slight Audio and Extra-features differences (German-release has English DTS ES).

Do note, that R1 "Unrated"-version has one additional featurette and exclusive releases with "Bonus disc" also available. You might want to avoid the R1 "R-rated"-version.

Whichever version you choose make sure to avoid the Scandinavian R0, Holland R2, Czech R2, Russia R5, and the the Australian R4 at all costs as they have cropped transfers.
