Although this one hasn’t gotten too much attention yet, I very much hope this will change soon. This is some of Boon’s best and most delicate work and perfectly demonstrates his “less is more” mantra.

The edit itself is not intricate, but the cuts were all very well chosen. Simple, but they alter the experience of the movie greatly. This is easily evidenced by the included deleted scenes reel. He saw the better movie within and drew it out with a few deft strokes. How’s that for pretentious? But this is what I was hoping I’d see from Boon again, an edit where the final project was truly a classic piece and a worthy showcase for his skills.

Very well done. Highly recommended. Great job. 9 of 10 easy.

And saltyron, there are guides of all kinds in the forum.

Ha Ha, already wrote this once but forgot to submit the comment DUH! Ok This is one of the best edits I have seen this year, as usual your seemless video makes it hard to remember where the scenes have been deleted, I see what you mean now about the Doc Holliday syndrome, yes Hannibal does not take over this version, which makes it a much stronger story, with the villian looking more sinister.And Edward Norton seamingly playing a better part, almost as though you had hired him to redo the scenes HA, but seriously this is another amazing watching experiece from Boon and I would highly recommend it. Story great, video quality superb, audio also great. What can I rate it but 10/10. Well done Boon great edit.

Without a doubt a replacement for the original Red Dragon. Absolutely superb!
