Review Detail

This felt like a great way to watch a film that I already knew I enjoyed. The changes made to the soundtrack within the simmer and the adjustments made to the flashbacks and traveling made the entire experience flow much more naturally while highlighting the alien environment that we are now in. I do wish the double deer scene was left in place just because I personally found that scene beautiful despite the CG, and it does feel too short lived when used as a backdrop for the description of the shimmer.

The cutting down of a lot of the dialogue was great for a re-watch, but I am unsure how that would have affected an initial viewing of the film. I would wholly recommend this for anyone who was a fan of the original film who is hoping to recapture some of that magic.
