Suggestion to revise intro text
I would suggest to move below lines from the intro text to the discussion page. I can totally relate to the comments but they sound pretty judgmental and as such more suitable for the discussion page.
"The original cut of the film clocked in at 115 minutes, but the studio chopped it down to only 87 minutes after a disastrous test screening. The final cut was a disorganized mess, incoherent and full of plot holes, and the premiere was moved from June of 1998 to August, with no previews for critics. Although the film is largely forgotten today..."
Anyway, let me know what you think, PeeWee055 (talk) 06:05, 17 March 2014 (EDT)
- I think the movie's critical and commercial failure is the film's biggest legacy. People expected a lot from this film, and it had a decent cast, a post-Schindler's List but pre-English Patient Ralph Fiennes, Uma Thurman, and Sean Connery, with an up and coming director. I think the biggest surprise is that no one has ever released the original cut of the film, despite the director's offer to reassemble it for free. Was it that bad, or do they just want people to forget? --Funkychinaman (talk) 13:30, 17 March 2014 (EDT)
