The butterfly effect.
I saw it when I was rather young but I thought it was pretty good, apparently people thought it’s edgy.
Should watch it again now and see if it holds up.
I saw a version with a different ending (cuz piracy) than that what was widely released in theaters and i really liked it. Have you seen both? Do you know what I'm talking about?
No, I saw it in theatres, what happens?
I've heard in the theatrical version he goes back and ends his friendship right? In the version i saw
seriously cw warning i warned you
He goes back in to the womb using a sonogram and wraps the umbilical cord around his neck killing himself so he instead never meets herThat's me, I'm people. Same as you, I remember watching it when I was young and thinking it was a cool mature thriller, but I rewatched it last year for the first time and I was honestly a little shocked at how edgy it seems. Like the first 30 minutes really hammer how much trauma Evan went through, and it just felt really heavy handed.
edit: to be clear I don't hate The Butterfly Effect, I just remember distinctly thinking how edgy it was on review
