Great movie but the ending was not as realistic as should have been

Rating: 8/10 (21 September 2005)

Its one of those movies I was not expecting much from and so was really surprised to enjoy a great movie overall. I just wish I had not seen the directors cut which has the different ending because you then start to think about the ending in a lot more detail and you realise that both endings , even though both are "shockers" actually they do not make much sense.
I can understand Ashton's character understanding that by changing the past he changes Amy Smart's future and that of her brother's fundamentally , however why on earth would he think that if he "was out of the equation" that they would grow up to be perfectly normal people.After all it was not Ashton's character that was abusing them etc , it was the father. I understand in the directors cut they go and live with their mother but Ashton's character has nothing to do with that.
However still an amazing movie apart from that
