The German special edition Blu-ray contains the following exclusives: - Unrated Edition in restored high definition
- English subtitles
- Image Gallery
However, compared to the Umbrella disc, the German edition misses out on:
- Lossless DTS-HD MA 5.1 audio
- Violence Down Under: Mark Goldblatt Interview
- Vengeance Is His: Dolph Lundgren Interview
This is a very tough call. In my estimation, the HD unrated cut is indispensable, but the lack of lossless audio and the absence of the interviews is problematic. On balance, I'm giving the win to the Umbrella edition, though collectors will want to pick up both discs for the definitive Punisher experience. (Personally, I own the German steelbook, which I customised to contain both the German disc and the Umbrella disc - perfection!)
At the time of writing, this is no American Blu-ray release. There's a UK Blu-ray, but it's completely barebones in terms of extras.
