OVERALL: R1

The R1 Extreme Edition for the anamorphic transfer, 5.1 sound, and extras. Do note, the R1 CE includes Trailers and TV Spots. Also note the early UK release with SUBTITLES on the dvd menu is uncut.

CUTS:

• R1 Collector's Edition America- Universal Pictures - No cuts
• R1 Extreme Edition America- Universal Pictures - No cuts
• R2 Germany - (Columbia Tristar Home Entertainment) - No Cuts.
• R2 Italy - (Columbia Tristar Home Entertainment) - No Cuts.
• R2 United Kingdom- Columbia Tristar Home Entertainment - Yes - 0:14 (BBFC: A number of cuts were made for cinema release to remove various elements of violence that were considered unacceptable at '12' (two neck breaks, a kneeling man being shot in the head, a karate chop to the throat, a punch to the face, cuts to the stomach made with a talon). For video release, the uncut version was submitted to the BBFC. The same cuts were required that had already been made on film, plus one additional cut to remove a headbutt (which had not been spotted on film). The cuts on video appear shorter because they were made more carefully - it is easier to make smooth cuts on video than on film. The most recent (DVD) version is identical to the cut video version. The cuts have not been waived.) The very first DVD release (with a red banner on the front cover reading "A Widescreen Presentation") has been compared to the R1 and is available in cut/uncut versions (97:11 PAL)
• R2 United Kingdom- Columbia Tristar Home Entertainment - No cuts (97:23 PAL)
• R4 Australia - (Columbia Tristar Home Entertainment) - No Cuts.
