Both are cut, but in different ways. The R2 UK edition has some shots of
horses falling removed due to the BBFC's obsession with perceived animal
cruelty. The R1 has some shots removed from the climax of the film and
some blood digitally erased.

The R3 editions from Hong Kong (Edko 2-disc SE) and Korea (Starmax) are
both uncut. Both have English subtitles. Neither has a dub, so you'll
just have to get over that stupid preference.

you say region 2 has been cut in other ways does that mean that it has the
scenes that are cut from the american version

To make a good movie, they should cut about twenty minutes from the last
hour of the movie!
Too bad, as it has some stunning sequences.

Talking seruously, there will be other R2 releases, not just the UK one.
Perhaps they will NOT be cut, as BBFC has no power outside the UK, and
they might contain an English dub. I'll verify the Italian one, if you
wish, but I think you'd have better luck in Northern Europe, where
English is spoken more easily.

English dubbed version? I hope this is because you have reading
difficulties and not because you suffer from grand philistinia?

CTHD dubbing..
"Man, this guy kicks ass. Yee-haw, let's go and buy some burgers"

CTHD original audio, subs.
"Our enemy fights with the spirit of a dragon. I'm hungry, let's buy some
rice cakes and tea"

or thereabouts..

It is region 3, at least my copy is, so that may not work for him.
