There are currently two different Region 1 discs available (or at least I think they are both still available), from Anchor Bay. The first is a single disc much in the mold of the disc reviewed here, the second is a Limited Edition, 2 disc set with additional features. The Region 1 Limited Edition includes the following extras: - Both the theatrical and Michael Mann's director's cut with an additional 3 minutes of film
- Collectable Booklet in mini manilla folder like an FBI file.
- Limited to 100,000 copies
The Region 1 'Theatrical' Release: - THX certification
- Dolby Digital 5.1 Soundtrack
Both the Region 1 and Region 1 Limited Edition offer: - Anamorphic Widescreen (16x9 enhanced) presentation
All-in-all, the most value for money has to be the R1 standard theatrical release with 16x9 enhancement. It should be noted that the Limited Edition is said to contain copious grain in the transfer.
