Umm, well as respects to to the cultural and cimematic elites who found the ‘original’ ending to be just to ‘happy’ to endure, I liked it.
And it remains my favorite of all the various ‘editions’ of this film. Maybe I just was never watching the same flic. I was never very confused about the story and all the ‘little continuity errors went and still go completely unnoticed.
It is the original film that is the popular edition I believe not the subsequent ‘improvements’. But at least this is supposedly the FINAL FINAL effort.
Frankly Scott could have stopped after the 1 and most everybody whould have been quite content. Saved a lot of editing costs as well. But then I guess they could not have issued a 5 film collectors editon.
Five variants of the same basic film. Golly you really have to be a HUGE FAN to shell out for this do you not ? Either that or simply not ‘well’ in some fundamental sense.
Kind of sad that the best film of 2007 was made decades ago.
