This was a great fix for a very mediocre movie! The actual editing was seamless and you managed to turn a 5.0/10 movie into a 7.5-8.0 for me.

The original movie tried to hide its lack of a compelling narrative behind some fancy screenwriting tricks but when you strip those tricks away you can see how relatively straightforward the story here is (which is why it only gets an 8). It feels like the original was going for almost Pulp Fiction-esque character introductions, converging and diverging plot lines, and a team meet-up in the final act, but when you put the story in order it becomes very straightforward: Canary knows Harley and Cassandra (who are wanted women), Huntress wants revenge, and Det. Montoya is chasing all of them. They all meet up, realize "we're not so different, you and I," and kick men's asses. Satisfying and straightforward, just like the story should have been from the beginning.

Excellent work turning this movie from a jumbled mess into a fun movie about bad girls gone semi-good!
