Title: How annoying.
Product review: This film really pissed me off. Though my kids liked it fine, I felt that it never lived up to its promises. For the first 30 minutes or so, I thought I was watching a classic. Then it fell apart. I kept feeling as thought it had been condensed from a much longer film (or book). After watching the movie, I viewed the alternate/deleted scenes. Oh my God! The director must have shot a different version of virtually every scene in the film! Many of the alternates would've led to a COMPLETELY different film. There is even a (much longer) alternate ending. I feel that the director/writer lacked the confidence to commit to one storyline or message and just filmed every idea that came into his head, only to try to sort it out later. The final film reflects that lack of consistency. This is one case of where the included "extras" actually lowered my opinion of the finished film.
