I saw a version that i think wasnt released and i really liked it. Have you seen both? Do you know what I’m talking about?
Comment on [Même] Which movie was this for you?

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.

there’s 3 endings. theater one was where he told the girl at the party he hated her, and they never met.
second is he goes back to a baby and kills himself or his mom I think?
third he runs into the girl as an adult after never meeting her, she went to live with her mom instead of the abusive dad.he recognizes her on the street and starts to follow her, roll credits.

second is he goes back to a baby memory and kills himself or his mom from the womb I think?
there’s also a cut scene earlier in the movie where the mom talks about having had multiple failed pregnancies before him

I believe thescene where they get their palms read was also cut from the theatrical release

Hmm I don’t think I’ve ever seen the first… And in the fetus one he strangled himself with the umbilical cord. Fucking dark, but definitely the superior ending.

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 her ___

I saw that version too! Apparently it’s the director’s cut.

That’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.

saw it a week ago. found out there are 3 different endings. holds up with a few plot holes, but decent.

Saw it as a teenager. Its edgy but I enjoyed watching it.
Until the prison/stigmata scene that completely broke the movies own rules. The whole fuking point is he goes back in time to change something and he is the only one who knows it. To everyone else that is just how the past has always been. But not in that scene! People actively see the world change due to him changing the past. (Oh and him mutilating himself as a kid changes nothing about his live except for the scars? He ends up in the same jailcell with the same cellmate 25 years later? Sure.) Even as a teenager i realised the gigantic plot hole.
With that scene its a 3/10 movie for me. But not because it is edgy.
