A 9 for the alternate ending

Rating: 9/10 (29 May 2020)

I want to make it very clear that this high note is only for the alternate movie: the ending that was intended by the makers.
When I watched the movie when it first came out I thought it had an amazing built up, a great story with so much potential. And then the last 10 minutes came. What looked like an award winning movie was destroyed in just a few minutes. Besides the fact I personally didn't like the ending, the ending didn't fit in the movie. It felt rushed.
And then I found out that this wasn't the ending the makers intended. They changed it after negative reactions of the test audience.
Today I rewatched the movie and without knowing it, I put on the alternate ending movie. And then it just fit. The movie became so great, the ending fitted way better and I personally liked this ending so much more.
So for people having the same issues as me with the original movie I would advice to watch the alternate movie instead. The alternate movie ending is way more true to the book and the rest of the movie.
