Man of Steel: Dawn of Justice Part 1 - The Outsider Edit

Very good edit. This streamlined cut of the movie is perfect if you want the bare bones of this wonderful film. It does not surpass the original but it is well worth a watch!

While the technical aspects are top notch (as they always are in a wakeupkeo project), I found myself missing a lot of what was removed.

When I first watched Man of Steel I remember thinking how the scenes were all over the place and it felt like important scenes had been removed from the cutting room floor. I felt this edit solved that issue by trimming and rearranging scenes perfectly making it go from a nonsensical movie to a more structured and logical film. I also appreciate not showing as many innocent bystanders getting hurt as that is not what Superman is all about.

The only gripe I had with the edit was the removal of the Superman reveal in the mountains. I really enjoyed that scene with Hans Zimmer Superman's theme playing in the background. but other than I would still highly recommend this edit.

Obviously some of the credit goes to TM2YC's monumental "A Symbol of Hope". A couple ideas are taken directly from there, but the many edits Wakeupkeo installs here are truly remarkable. The numerous removals of bits and shots make the film a lot more subtle in what it is trying to say, which actually makes it speak louder. This is THE DEFINITIVE FAN-EDIT of MoS, and I do not say that lightly.
