Amazing

Rating: 9/10 (12 July 2004)

Butterfly Effect was the better than expected. I was definitely worried that Ashton Kutcher could not portray a serious roll without seeming somewhat "B" movie like. The movie pulls you in and has you second guessing every natural instinct you would have. I actually did not get to see that movie in theaters, but instead on DVD. I would have to say for those who have not seen it yet, you must watch the Directors Cut first, that ending is the best. It takes other events in the movie and pulls them all together very nicely. The Theatrical Cut has an alternate ending that does not give the movie that dramatic presence you would be looking for. Although, it seems like a more pleasant ending, I am glad that the Directors cut was the one most people see and love. All and all a great film and a must buy.
