Nightcom picked up Dan's unfinished movie from 2004 and continued it all the way through. The first three levels are played by Dan and the rest of the movie by Nightcom. The movie has been subjected to a lot of critique because of this, implying that the first three levels are more precisely played than the rest of the movie. The game is very good for TASing though, and with all its impressive acrobatics the movie was deemed good enough to be published. Watch the movie yourself and see what you think.
