Free Enterprise R2??
I would like to get this movie, but the disc is so expensive in the US. I've noticed the R2 disc for sale at bensonworld for a much better price, but they don't have any features listed. Amazon.co.uk likewise doesn't list any features.
however, there have been a couple of auctions on ebay that list the following features for this disc, which seem to match the R1 except for being anamorphic:
16x9 Version – Exclusive to UK Edition
Trailer 2x
TV Spots
Writer/Director & Editor Commentary
Deleted Scenes
Making of Featurette
Screen Tests
‘No Tears for Caeser’ Music Video
Biographies/Filmographies
Production Notes
Phrase Glossary
However, bensonsworld replied back to my inquiry stating that the R2 is NOT anamorphic.
Does anyone know what is actually on the R2 disc?

thanks for that link. I didn't know about that site.
Can anyone confirm the lip synch problem with the R2 audio? If there doesn't seem to be a problem, I feel much better getting that version.

If the R2 release is cheaper for you, then go for it. That being said, the transfer is pretty decent for a non-anamorphic release. I wouldn't upgrade just for an anamorphic transfer on this one.
