This is the go-to version of Cap's Winter Soldier adventure. Video editing is seamless for transitions and quality matching (on a 106" projection). Audio editing is seamless (on a 2.1 channel system). All additions are worthwhile.

The green-screen is finished so well I didn't notice it when I watched the movie. Afterwards when I specifically went back to that scene to look for it, I recognized edges during a few moving shots. Very impressive editing!

The only debatable point is whether the movie would be better if some scenes are trimmed. For my preference Barnes gets too much screen time, but I do think that the pacing of the movie is great as it is. So I'm not sure if trimming any Barnes would work well for the risk of throwing off the overall pacing.

Not much to say on this one. This edit doesn't massively alter the original film, it simply extends the runtime.

The theatrical cut is great and the fact that these scenes were deleted doesn't hurt that version in the slightest. Added back in, these scenes do help certain parts of the movie 'feel' or 'flow' better and apart from one scene, they have all been reintegrated seamlessly. The one scene I refer to required a fair bit of fx work, and may only have been noticeable to me as I was watching on a very large screen.

Audio/Visual quality was great.

I can't say wether this will be replacing my Blu-Ray yet. I'll have to watch the theatrical again and see if it feels like anything is missing ;)

All in all a great edit! Fantastic work!

Pretty much flawless. I can't rate the A/V editing a 10 as I knew what was/wasn't apart of the original. If I wasn't as familiar with this movie as I am, I wouldn't not been able to tell what was added and when.

Strongly recommend this edit. Better than the original probably, just cause more is better when it comes to a good film like this!

Great edit, the deleted scenes are small, but give some underrated characters like Maria Hill more time to shine and more time with Natasha, which is always good in my book.
The only things that are a bit bad are some greenscreens in the added scenes look weird (nothing major tho, and very good for a fan edit with unfinished material) and the newly added last line of the movie gets cut off.
I recommend it thoroughly.

A slightly overrated (but still enjoyable) entry in the MCU, I didn't pick up on a ton of changes from the original version, except that Bobson added in a plot beat that was sorely missing -- namely Fury giving Natasha the holographic face mask that just appears out of nowhere in the original's climax. Much appreciated.

Now if somebody just manages to fix the unnatural and joke-killing way that ScarJo pronounces "mul-tie-tasking" during the opening sequence, I'll be all-in on this one...
