This story is very good. The idea is interesting and the plot is tight and well written. The original is well-liked for a reason. This new edit feels solid and, while I haven’t seen the original for ages so I can’t compare the two, it seems to hold up very well considering that about an episode’s worth of material had to be cut out. It felt well-paced and exciting throughout. The new scenes at the start and end were nice but they’re not really anything substantial, but I never expected them to be. All in all, this new version exceeded my expectations.
