"God is good, is he not?" "All the time." This starts off as "Everyone wants to kill Denzel Washington: The Movie" but ends...
Time Travel Consecution, Episode 4 This was absolutely hilarious, and narratively sound. The police surrendering to coked up terminator who left his pants in the future was definitely...
Time Travel Consecution, Episode 1 The number of times I've needed that time travelling telephone box during exam season... Anyway, this was a technically solid...
Boon's Prison Break finale. A/V editing was solid, with a genius bit of work making it appear as if Michael was unlocking the door towards the end with the plastic...
The second part of Boon’s Prison Break trilogy. A/V editing was better this time around. The narrative presented is nearly perfect. The edit has a great pace, which gradually builds....
I've watched these reviews more times than the prequels.
Prison Break Season 1 cut down into three films by Boon. A/V: There were a number of rough A/V cuts throughout, which I can forgive...
Taxi Driver is a masterpiece of cinema. It is however a bit of a slow grind, so I was interested to see what Maniac had done with it. This edit...
Disclaimer: I'm not a fan of Twin Peaks, and I've only previously managed to get through the pilot. However, this is a very well made edit. Cutting down 16 hours...
A very impressive edit which pieces together Jigsaw's backstory over 6 films (in the first half). Very good editing throughout, and this edit can serve effectively as a replacement to...
Absolutely phenomenal. I have newfound respect for Part II, I think it's surpassed the first one for me. There was one very brief audio glitch around the 3 hr mark....
For me, this is the ideal cut of Under Construction. I always watched Falling Down for the "white collar worker losing his mind" plotline, rather than the tired and cliched...
What an amazing watch. The Godfather is an all time great and seeing footage I'd never seen before was a real joy. A/V editing is seamless, couldn't tell where the...
This is a very strong edit combining the two Alien prequels, which (mostly) improves on both. The scattering of certain scenes and extras across the film was very well done....
A very creative edit that restructures The Dark Knight roughly in the style of Memento. Additional footage from Batman Begins is used for flashbacks, and the Black & White scenes...
I've never seen Star Trek before but this episode does have a Twilight Zone feel to it, probably because they were filmed around the same era. The Warlord has edited...
This has got to be one of the most impressive fanedits out there, even more so than the first edit. TMBTM has crafted a completely new narrative from The Empire...
The original Donnie Brasco is a solid film with strong performances from Depp & Pacino, but was a bit bogged down by the agent plotline - which I mostly didn't...
Batman Begins in less than 50 minutes. This was a pretty impressively effort narratively speaking. Firstly, there were some technical issues. Audio was frequently out of sync with the video....
Martin Lawrence: This is some sick shit! BlueYoda: Yeah, it's about to get sicker.
This is absolutely THE perfect cut of Scarface. I always felt Scarface was overrated, but had good moments. This edit aggressively condenses the film to its most entertaining and relevant...
Carlito's Way was a great film but suffered run-time wise from extraneous plotlines, mainly Gail. This edit expertly removes her from the film for a much more enjoyable and higher...
If you haven't seen BTTF before, you're gonna be lost. However, as a fan of the series, this was a real treat to watch. Also, interesting to note, this edit,...
This fanedit is largely based off the original script for the pilot of Mulholland Drive, using footage from the film. It also includes a LQ bootleg copy with certain scenes...
This is an excellent edit. Planet of the Apes works very well as a Twilight Zone episode. The added voiceover is a nice touch. My main critique is that the...
This is a very nice edit. A bare essentials cut of Drive which follows both the love plot and Standard's plot. Well chosen tracks for the rescore. ...
Is it possible to watch Dude Where's Your Car in 7 minutes? I'd say it's entirely possible.
This is a very solid horror edit. Jigsaw without the police investigation, instead focussing on the traps and the game. Impressively, over half of the runtime is cut. Cuts are...
RACHEL American Psycho II had terrible dialogue and performances. While this edit doesn't fix that (it's not possible), it does manage to pack the film into about half...
I've seen this one before a few years ago, and came back to see Daredevil in all its cheesy glory. UA has done an excellent job here at removing a...
MAY A straight-to-the-point of edit. May is a pretty funny, dark and gruesome horror film, and certainly underrated. This edit retains the humour and darkness of the original...
The first 8 minutes of this were hypnotic. Well chosen tracks and well edited throughout. The ocean is quite beautiful and frightening at the same time.
This was a very enjoyable watch. I didn't read the cut list and haven't watched Batman Begins for a while, so I couldn't tell what had been removed, bar the...
This fanedit is unlike anything I've seen yet. It remixes A New Hope into a Grindhouse film which plays out differently, and has a very different feel to it. There...
This edit aims to remove a lot of the weak parts of X-Men Origins Wolverine to create a stronger film. A/V: quality Decent A/V, looks...
This edit turns The Force Awakens into a silent film by changing the aspect ratio, adding various monochromatic filters, and removing all audio in favour of a very well chosen...
A/V: Mostly no problems here. Spider-Man 1 is cropped so that it matches footage from 2 & 3. There were one or two video fades, and several times where the...
While this edit has some interesting ideas and the intercutting between BTTF 1 & 2 is impressive, the narrative is incredibly muddled and unclear. It's still enjoyable, because BTTF is...
Saw a workprint version of this last year before release. This was a light expansion of Drive, and I found it quite enjoyable. The scenes chosen from La La Land...
I saw this a few years back. This was a very strong edit of The Dark Knight that streamlines an already amazing film. The cuts were really unnoticeable, and the...
This is one of the first fanedits I saw many years ago, and it made me realise how irritating the voiceover is in the original. I cannot watch Fight Club...
This edit does a good job at removing all the weak points of this film that could be removed. However, the film itself is fundamentally poor and as a result,...
This is a pretty good "straight to the point" edit that removes the subplot of the corrupt judges, although I still prefer the original.
Mostly good AV quality, although it did drop when cropping took place. Very impressive editing in some parts, especially the removal of Harry and the...
I saw a Rough Cut of this and was very impressed. The intercutting of the B&W and colour scenes was very well done, and the narrative told in this edit...
A/V: Video & audio quality great for all three films, no problems here. Editing: Mostly seamless, perhaps cut a little too quickly once or twice...
(Review for HARMONICA) I first saw Once Upon a Time in the West a couple months ago, and while I enjoyed it, it was painfully slow. When the...
Very solid edit. Watched this a few years ago, I still remember the excellent intro credits and music. Pretty much all of the weak parts of this film were taken...
Saw this a while ago. Was an improvement over the original for sure, and has a good idea at its core, but unfortunately cutting Mary's superpowers doesn't work that well,...
S1 of Breaking Bad is a fairly slow (but enjoyable) grind that sets the scene for future seasons. This film edit somehow manages to capture that same feeling, despite being...
