Makes the 2017 cut looks like trash!

Probably the first four-hour movie that I watched in one sitting. Not a perfect one, but the first fiction that caused me emotions since "Endgame". The plot is interesting. The characters are developed. The soundtrack is incredible. It could have been a beginning of something, but, you know what happened. Such a pity that a franchise with this potential has been lost.

Honestly after all the fuss, all the hype, all the money spent to finish this...we’ve essentially got basically the exact same movie. Sure this fixes some of the issues with the theatrical version, removing the kinda pointless Russian family scenes for example. However instead it replaces them with other unnecessary scenes, like the Flash saving a woman who I think is supposed to be Iris West not that she ever says her name or does this have any bearing on the rest of the movie. Sprinkle in a little bit of Darkside where he wasn’t before and pad out with long slow mo sequences motion and establishment shots. I’m not saying this is terrible, it’s not, just most of what works is already present in the theatrical cut, its just stretched out. I thought the theatrical was fine a 6/10 with some issues...this cut is the same a 6/10 improves on some aspects but is just a bit too long and replaces the old issues with slightly different ones. Between these two different versions is a good 7/10 2 and a half to 3 hour movie somewhere.

When every scene is agonizingly slow (motion) of course your movie is 4 hours. Do not waste your time like I did. [ancient lamentation music playing]

WOW! This is just SOO much better than the 2017 Whedon version. This is basically a completely different movie. And best of all - no freaky weird CGI mouth/chin shots of Cavill. It really is quite amazing how much the editing can make or break a movie. This version has a much richer storyline, the characters are fleshed out a lot more. And everything just makes a lot more sense. Granted, there are a couple of times where it does slow down a bit, but that's to be expected in a 4hr movie. How I rate: 1-3 ❤ = seriously! don't waste your time 4-6 ❤ = you may or may not enjoy this 7-8 ❤ = I expect you will like this too 9-10 ❤ = movies and TV shows I really love!
