The edit starts very strong with the opening crawl followed by the pan down. What a technical wonder, I loved it. The prologue is great like this, it makes a...
The pacing is kinda weird, but that is caused by the source material, not much can be improved there. I’ve noticed a few of the cuts but the...
I enjoyed the original The Darkest Hour a bit more than I enjoyed Dunkirk, but in this edit the balance actually works very well between them. ...
Gone is the musical, now we can watch this as a film. It still gives homage to old classical musicals and the jazz infused romance is still present (and maybe...
Regarding AV quality and editing, this looks perfect. It flows seamlessly through the film. The removal of Perkins subplot works, nothing is lost without...
The overall changes are small but they do improve the story. The bits of dialogue that are gone are not really needed and are sometimes redundant, so great...
First of all, let me start by saying that the decision to remove several lines of dialogue and some sublots was absolutely correct, in my opinion. ...
I like the narrative the way it’s edited, it works better. The pace starts slow and then accelerates, and when it does catch speed, it keeps accelerating into the conclusion,...
What a task this must have been! The amount of work needed to edit not just 1, but 3 (long) films must be immense. Regarding...
First of all, the audio and video edits are very well made. The narrative is improved on this version and some of the riskier editing decisions actually end...
The narrative flow is fine, the story is much more direct and focused now. Also, the visual and audio editing are ok, never noticed any cut whatsoever. ...
I remember watching American Horror Story season 1 a while back and, despite my enjoyment with it, I did feel some of the story elements were a bit dragged out...
You can feel Tarantino’s raw script here, and the film does become a different thing entirely. The pace is frenetic and it flows very well, on par...
The focus on the love story is a good idea. It may simplify the original story a bit too much but it works fine in and of...
This works well. The combat ensnares the viewer, the pacing is electrifying, the story flows easily from beginning to end.
After watching, I’m not sure which version I like the most, either this one or the companion /alternative edit “Split Unbreakable Glass”. In “Unbreakable Glass...
This was near perfection for me… What an experience the film becomes, with this edit! Other reviewers have talked here about the plot changes, which...
This should only be watched, obviously, after first checking out “Split Unbreakable Glass”, which I highly recommend. I learned a lot; it is quite interesting....
Removing several scenes in the 1st act was a good choice, the story flows a lot better this way. The removal of the “soap opera” about Cassian’s orders was also...
This is a hard one to evaluate, because I really love the original film. It’s a classic, one of the best films of all time and Stanley Kubrick is a...
It definitely improves the pacing a lot. Even though the original book being separated into 2 films allowed for the films to be very faithfully to the book, the story...
The added scenes are relevant and they improve the story. Quality is the same between original film and the new scenes. The audio and video...
First of all, the opening and closing animations are beautiful and work very well. After seeing the way this edit creates a non-linear story, it...
Yep, it works a lot better like this Almost everyone ends the original film thinking "why didn't they tell the story from Aurora's pov?". It...
My review of the 2022 version: I love the original film, but I do love this version even more. So many "small" edits to make this a focused...
I love this. It's the correct version of the film, period I enjoyed the original film, then I read the book and, while still thinking...
The original Prometheus from 2012 was really hit and miss for me... Some scenes were great, just to be followed with unbearable dragged-out sections. Here...
What a great job! Lots of care went into this and it show. Thanks Q2 for all your work
