Often the theatrical cut is trimmed for length so the theaters find it more attractive to show. If the director was good, I would rather see their entire vision, their finished product. If they were not good, trimming it is not likely to help.
Yes, it really depends. In some cases the director's cut feels like unshackled artistry. In others it feels like overindulgence (e.g., Apocalypse Now Redux, Star Wars: A New Hope)
