Well, Well, Well....
What a revelation! I recall little of what I thought about this in theatres other than being left with a sirta "Meh" feeling.
Despite that, I picked up a Blu Ray in a $5 bin a few years ago at WalMart, and there it remained in its shrink wrap...UNTIL AFTER I watched Mathilda...
Wow!...I really enjoyed this version...certainly I more than the original. It was now more enigmatic, mysterious and oddly compelling. I was certainly conviced that the music was original and by the time I concluded viewing I knew I HAD to watch the original. And now I recall why I had that @MEH" feeling.
Not only is this not overblown it feels grounded and anchored in a reality we are familar with and not dystopian.
It still hard to believe the level of effort and dedication required to pull off the audio work and I for one shall definitely be re-vising THIS verion in future.
High recommended.
