The Region 1 version of this disc misses out on; Once again, Disney has seen fit to leave the Region 4 version of a Christopher Nolan film trailing so far behind its American counterpart that there really is no option as to which one to choose. Is that a little unfair, as this is a rental disc? Well, if we take the case of Memento, when the sell-through version finally came out, it was identical to the rental. Now to be fair to Disney, rights issues would have clouded the matter, as Memento is owned by Sony in the US, while Insomnia is owned by Warner Bros. The challenge for Disney, now, is to get the rights to those extras and present them so that Australian audiences do not have to keep turning to importation to get these films. They managed it - albeit belatedly - for films such as Starship Troopers, so why not these films?
