What an improvement and accomplishment! It's now a masterpiece spanning from the birth to the death of Superman. I agree with the positive comments of other reviewers, notably the excellent incorporation of the tornado flashback to the Doomsday fight.

Detail on each of my ratings:

Audio/Video Quality: 7 stars
The HQ version was good, but did have moderate artifacts in heavy action and dark scenes.

Visual Editing: 9 Stars
At least one of the new opening credits felt rushed and not displayed on the screen long enough. There was just one brief but very noticeable video/audio glitch on the HQ version where the frame jumped. Overall, the edits were smooth and professional.

Audio Editing: 9 Stars
Audio transition to Jor-El's flashback was noticeable but not jarring. Overall the audio transitions were smooth and professional.

Narrative: 8 Stars
Narrative was overall a vast improvement. The rushed pace and some scene rearrangement/cuts did introduce somewhat of a "wait, what just happened!?" effect in some places.

Enjoyment: 10 Stars
Great job of the fanfixes, especially Zod's death. Great job of integrating the BvS material, especially the transition from Superman's anguish to Batman's anger following the battle of Metropolis. Wow!
The outstanding music integration should also be recognized, especially the music after Zod's death leading into Batman's brooding in the Batcave. Amazing!
A successful fanfix and fanmix, the best of both types of edits. Loved it!

Thank you JobWillins.

I had a great time watching this. It felt like getting the best out both movies. Still hate it when superman hovers over the tanker when it's kicked to him and lets it explode the building behind him. Seemless video and audio and for two movies combined into one it didn't feel too long and pace was lot better than both original.

(Warning: Major Spoilers Ahead. Don’t read if you haven’t watched the edit).

This is coming from someone who isn’t a huge fan of MOS but enjoyed both versions of BVS. I give it an A. The editor successfully took pretty two plot heavy movies, and condensed them into one coherent whole. The Battle for Metropolis is much more engaging and exciting here than the overly violent version in the theatrical MOS.

I liked all the characters much more than the original. I like how Superman is hopeful and unsure of himself instead of just broody and dark. His death is also much more emotional since the whole movie is 100% focused on his journey and the hardships he faces.

Batman and Lex Luthor are also a lot more sympathetic in this version, they simply represent the people who think Superman is a threat to the world. The removal of Batman killing made his character much more likable and much easier to root for. The removal of the Africa subplot also made Luthor a much more interesting villain. He’s now presented as a morally grey bad guy with somewhat understandable motivations instead of just being a straight up crazy psychopath.

There were a few minor plot holes but I think the good largely outweighs the bad here, this is definitely my go-to-version when watching the DCEU movies in the future.

After watching the the Jurassic World edit by Job Willins I knew this was going to be a great edit and he didn't disappoint. The way the flashbacks from Man of Steel have been incorporated and moved around is perfect and really adds an emotional aspect. The ending now has more emotional weight due to this as well. I really enjoyed this edit and highly recommend it if you're a Superman fan as the movie really focuses on Superman life.

Man of Steel is a good film, to me. The Ultimate Cut of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is also a good film, to me. This fan-edit basically combines the two into a two and a half hour long three-act-structured film that mainly focuses on what it should focus on: Superman, and it's phenomenal. It combines two underrated films into arguably one of the greatest comic book films ever made. The problems people had with both films with Superman seemingly not caring about humanity and him having the spotlight taken away from him are nowhere to be found here. Man of Tomorrow shows a Superman who struggles to fit into everyday society, who has trouble adapting to a world where people have lost their sense of hope, who's here on this Earth to inspire that hope and bring it back to the world, to have people gain that sense of hope again, and it shows that side of the character beautifully. I also loved how this portrayed Bruce Wayne/Batman and Lois Lane. Batman represents a side of the general public that thinks Superman is a danger to this planet, someone who shouldn't be trusted. On the other hand, Lois Lane represents the side of the general public that thinks Superman is a hero, a god among mortals. Even better is that it's not all black and white. You can very easily understand where both sides are coming from while at the same time you are easily invested in Superman's struggles, mainly to get the people of Earth to put their trust into him. The way different scenes from both films are edited together to make what's going on in the overall story more intense and dramatically rich and satisfying is amazing. Even if you hate Man of Steel and Batman v Superman, I highly recommend Man of Tomorrow. It's a beautifully crafted and beautifully edited work that's interesting and satisfying for fans of these films, like myself, to see and manages to fix many complaints haters had with them. Man of Tomorrow is not just a great fan edit, it's arguably a perfect Superman film, possibly the best since the Richard Donner original, if not just as good or even better.
