The idea of refocusing the story on Mathilda works wonders. The changes at the start also improve the character arc of Leon, he’s more mysterious and unknowable now.
The intent of removing the many moments that were just way too creepy and cringe has been fulfilled; these changes in no way worsen the main story beats, and the film becomes a lot easier to watch.
The training montage was the highlight of the edit, perfectly edited and scored.
The score changes all worked well. I’ve noticed a few dialogue lines that became a bit too quiet because of the new songs, but nothing major.
