I know what you mean...but, I guess I've watched too many similar plot movies lately. The movie was well-done, looked and sounded great, but I think I found it kinda derivative, as a movie that is. The story may actually be the original, but too many other movies have taken from it, they got there first. Gotta admit, I never liked the books much as far as that goes, fantasy is not my preferred SF genre. Let's just say your opinion of a movie can be directly affected by movies you watched just before it, so I gotta space the genres out better.

About the director's cut, guess I got which is which mixed up...usually it's the version that doesn't get shown in the theatres. Was this the theatre version?
