Watched the movie for about 40 minutes and had to cancel. For me the narrative seemed too rushed and simply not logical, because of the editing. Due to the scene editing I recognized too many bridging errors so that I never really got 'into' the movie.
Also the audio quality seemed to be messed up.
Sorry, I simply can't recommend this edit.

Also, I'm interested to know what the issues were with the audio quality being "messed up" was.
I once made a terrible faux pas by giving feedback to a faneditor in this community and he asked me about my setup and I was terribly embarrassed to discover that my new PC had changed my surround sound in the most horrendous way. Fortunately that particular faneditor was kind enough to stop me from eating too much crow.
If you can tell us more about your experience maybe we can learn from it or, dare I say, work out if your set up isn't quite aligned properly.
With bridging errors I meant scenes, where character XY is on location 1 and suddenly out of nowhere has moved to another scene, with no possibility to comprehend it. I experienced many cuts, which weren't simply "fluent". It felt too rushed.
I understand that the goal was to shorten the plot, but in this case recognizable compromises had to made as explained before.
I also disklied the "introduction" of the mature superman, especially when amy adams' caracter appears in the arktis for the first time, because there was simply no introduction of superman as a mature man.
bridging errors - what? the other 11 reviews including mine should suggest that most of these edits work fantastically
audio quality messed up - WHAT?? the audio quality was awesome, pretty much nothing wrong, no distortions or anything!
You only watched 40 minutes, and you are misleading other viewers who want to know if this edit is worth watching
Only one example (of many) for bridging errors, which distracted me from watching:
The first time when Superman/Karl El encounters his fathers conscience at the ship for the first time, after some minutes of dialogue it suddenly cuts to a next scene, where both are standing in a hallway talking.
For me this cut as well as others were simply too hard, removing the flow of many scenes.
You can see good video editing/cutting if you don't recognize it consciously, but I unfortunetaly did. If no one else recognized it, thats good for you. ;)
Nevertheless I also watched Agent9's Prometheus Cut and enjoyed it much more then the original cut. So I'm not here for trolling or ranting anything. I simply didn't like this version. And even if I didn't watch it until the end I have the right to review it. In my case let's call it a Preview. :)
