Hmm.  I was disappointed by the film, I'd give this a watch though.

I always felt that the biggest mistake was to not have the actors with more than one role cast in some sort of logical manner.

Like A is 'the heavy', B is always the romantic interest, C seemed to always have the button, D has the comet birthmark, or some such thing.

Instead I found myself playing 'find the actor under the makeup' and trying to make some association with another timeline that wasn't there.

That's a director's mistake not something an editor can fix though.

Still, restoring the Russian nested doll framework seems like a REALLY good idea.
