In reference to what review? DVD Beaver does not have the comparisons up as of yet. I ended up buying the Criterion set as i got it at a very good price. I would be open to "double dipping" with the MoC version. When it comes to extras i know the differences between Criterion and the MoC release. Regardless of which one might tad better in image quality. The image regardless is a mess, and i understand why, given the lack of required materials for a correct remastering and repair of the film. What it is now is probably about as good as it is going to get. I do understand that.

Please advise.
Thanks.

I have the MOC version it has great extras a lovely booklet and is as has been said probably as good as it's ever going to look, I haven't seen the Criterion version but am very happy with the MOC one, they both come from the same source anyhow. Hope that helps.
