Clearly a Masterpiece

Rating: 9/10 (16 January 2005)

This masterpiece, is probably the finest Sci-Fi movie ever made, and i can't see a reason for it not to have a place in everyones collection.
The story, direction and cast are all perfect, and although i agree that the directors cut is better, i still believe that the original Harrison Ford voice over is pretty good, even if the end of that version was s**t.
I first saw the movie when i was about 15 years old, and it blew me away (and yes that was the original cut of the film). At that age without the voice over the film would have been too difficult to follow, so i do have my reasons for liking that version. I also think that the original cut of the movie probably has wider appeal.
My advice is this, see the original cut and if you like it watch the directors cut. If you jump straight into the directors cut, and don't give the movie your whole hearted attention, you will miss out on a masterpiece in cinematic history.
