This is an excellent edit of a deeply broken film. It will never be a great film, but this version would certainly qualify as a good one. I enjoyed it...

These are a blast! Lovingly polished and spruced up without losing any of their original charm. Excellent work!

Wakeupkeo brings his exceptional series of DCEU edits to a close on a fitting note--with a film about a guy realising that he's got to make the best of the...

This accomplishes exactly what it sets out to do. It strips the bloated sequels down to only their best components, making them much more enjoyable in the process ...

This is exactly what this film needed. Gone are the attempts at padding the runtime and we're left with a much stronger pair of sequels. Absolutely recommended!

This is another good edit of a pair of films that have already been seen numerous versions both official and by editors. I must admit that I have probably seen...

This is a vast improvement upon the original film. A much better send off to Brosnan.

Alexander The Great has always been a fascinating historical figure to me so I was pretty disappointed by Oliver Stone's initial film and his subsequent attempts to stick the landing....

I've revisited Escape From LA a few times and bounced off it every time, despite my fondness for John Carpenter and Kurt Russell's particular blend of movie magic. I'm happy...

I've never disliked this film as much as many Trek fans. It's certainly not perfect, but there's so much to love for fans of TOS. This edit skillfully strips away...

I've seen a couple edits of Crystal Skull now, but this easily one of the most successful. It seamlessly removes nearly all of the worst elements (or, in the case...

I must confess that I've always enjoyed rewatching this movie more than its overly-lauded predecessor. Not because its a better film (it's absolutely not), but simply because it's a lot...

I've never been as enamoured with this film as much as most, so I was curious to see if an edit could fix some of my issues with it. In...

I've seen a couple different edits of Never Say Never Again now and they all succeed in bringing the movie closer to the feel of the classic EON productions, but...

This is absolutely an improvement upon the theatrical version. Unfortunately, the foundational flaws of the script and the lackluster 3rd act remain. However, they are certainly mitigated as much as...

Wakeupkeo remains the gold standard for DCEU edits. While Black Adam was never going to be a great film, by stripping away a lot of the less successful attempts at...

I have joked with many a fan-editor over the last couple of years who've tried their hand at salvaging the first season of Picard that, no matter how much they...

While obviously not as a strong a film as Wrath of Khan or Voyage Home, I never had any issues with the original Search for Spock so I watched this...

I've grown to enjoy Discovery a lot more upon a recent rewatch, so I don't have as many issues as some do with that show. However, for Trek fans who...

What Hal9000 and his many collaborators have accomplished with Rise of Skywalker is probably my favorite of his superlative Star Wars edits. This manages to take a really bungled product...

This is a very well made edit, but, after watching it, I have to admit that I'd rather have rewatched John Woo's orginal with all its cheesiness and excesses. While...

Many a child of the 70s & 80s has fond memories of the Six Million Dollar Man and this edit really hit the spot for me. This clever bit of...

Another excellent Bond edit by Lapis Molari, polishing up an older gem by trimming out some of the bits that haven't aged as well. And yet, none of the campy...

This is easily the best version of the Obi-Wan Kenobi project I've seen. It was obvious from the get-go that this was a 2.5 hour movie stretched out unnecessarily into...

This is exactly what I wanted from an edit of this film, There's certain plot elements that nothing can be done about, like the chase for Khan's magical blood when...

I enjoyed this so much more than I did the first time I watched this train wreck. Wakeupkeo has managed to strip away as much of what didn't work as...

This is very much a case of making the best of a very bland 007 film. I still wouldn't call it a good Bond movie, but lapis molari has certainly...

I came to Logan's Run through the book first, then the beautiful George Perez drawn comics adaptation Marvel did before I ever saw the film. As a result, I was...

Roger Moore's first 007 film has always been a favorite of mine. The whole concept of throwing Bond into the middle of a Blaxploitation film is just so much fun....

This is a wonderful edit that fixes virtually all my issues with the movie, refining what was already there to make it the best depiction of Fleming’s Bond outside of...

Moore's tenure as Bond unfortunately went out with a whimper when he decided to stick around for one film too many. This edit does a wonderful job of salvaging the...

Man with the Golden Gun was always one of the lesser Bonds as both a book and a film. However, I always felt it had the right elements in place...

As much as fan edits have proven capable of salvaging some projects, sometimes there's only so much you can do with a deeply flawed product. This is unfortunately the case...

On a technical level, this edit is excellent, but, unfortunately, it still feels like a more truncated version of a series that simply doesn't work. I was hoping that it...

Due my students undying love of the excellent Tron Uprising cartoon, I've been forced to sit through Tron Legacy more times than I would have ever wanted. Wakeupkeo's edit has...

This is a lovingly crafted edit that finally makes Connery's final appearance as Bond feel like a legit curtain call rather than a cheap knockoff. ...

If you have fond memories of Jason and the Argonauts and want to see a version that cuts to the chase and gets straight to the good bits while still...

This is easily my favorite edit of Justice League. It keeps what worked about both Snyder and Whedon's vastly different versions and finds a happy middle-ground between them. Everything that...

This edit is a delight. I have seen this movie countless times by now, so the opportunity to watch it again with a fresh coat of paint was a wonderful...

This is very much a somewhat longer version of Superman Redeemed, but with much better picture quality. It's a Frankenstein Monster of lesser films in an attempt to make...

This is an excellent edit.. Absolutely worth watching. I'll be scaring the shit out of my kids with it this Halloween

If you're like me and you were bored by glacial pace of the original Netflix show but thought the ingredients were there for a solid Daredevil adaptation, this is exactly...

There's only so much you can do with this film, honestly. The A/V quality is top notch, but I think the film could have...

This is about as good an edit as could be accomplished with this film given the limitations imposed by the script and casting. Well worth checking out

This was already a great 007 film but these edits have improved it further. Highly recommend.

The A/V quality of this is excellent and the edits made certainly improve the film. However, I think there's only so much that can be done to improve such a...

This is probably the best version of BvS I've come across. It strips away what doesn't work while retaining what does and tweaking the depictions as much as possible to...

Technically, this is an absolutely wonderful version of this film. However, I was hoping for a brisker pace so that I could show it to younger audiences. This edit, unfortunately,...

This is clearly a labor of love and the care put into each frame is evident. Although I respect the desire to put every last bit of Donner's footage in...

I quite loved the theatrical cut of The Last Jedi but even I will admit that the 2nd act is too much of a slog and has diminished my appreciation...
