It was approved for theatrical screening, but it wasn't unchanged. Dame
Judy Dench had to change one of her lines:

So if you thought the UK/US cuts for violence were silly....

The irony is that unlike the changes made in the UK and China, the US cuts
were completely voluntary and made in order for the film to earn a PG-13
instead of an R. In Hong Kong, where the uncut R3 DVD hails from, the film
earned the equivilent of an PG-13 rating.

The UK had a mandatory cut made. Other European countries are typically
more lax, but it's possible another country's censors wanted this or that
bit taken out to meet their standards.
