Star Wars: The Coaxium Heist

This is an incredible example of an excellent fan edit.
It does everything I want in a fan fix. The film is now shorter (which is always good in my point), well-paced, and devoid of cringe.
I think there are some scenes with Emilia Clark that could be edited better but mainly I believe that is simply due to her terrible performance. I quite liked the Han Solo gag and would have personally kept it in and I felt the editing was a bit obvious there. Finally, the soundtrack in one of the scenes (the one where Han asks for Chewbacca's name) felt off and should be removed or replaced.
But these are only the smallest of nick picks and looking at the changes sheet I truly believe this is one of the best fan edits out there.

This is why I watch fan edits! I first saw this movie upon release and was greatly disappointed. It dragged in parts and this really tightens it up. It cuts down so much filler and keeps the film on a nice fast paced ride.

The edits are seamless and really well done. I like the new intro crawl and the transitions are fantastic. I greatly appreciate the removal of the blue filter as well as the final Maul scenes.

I'm not a fan of giving 10's across the board, but it really exceeded expectations and I had such a great time watching. This edit completely changed my opinion of the original source material, which is what it set out to do. It's well deserving of it's praise. Thanks for all the hard work DigModiFicaTion!

Before I begin with the review of the edit, a quick word about my feelings for the original film. I saw it once at the cinema and that was it. It's not that it was a bad movie per se, I just didn't enjoy it and also I was very annoyed with how Han got his last name and that over the top silliness and excessive humanization of the android L3. So, although I didn't remember much of the original film when I saw this edit, these two things I remembered clear as yesterday! So my overall enjoyment of the original was around 4.

Now with the edit! The audio and visual technical aspects where nothing less than perfect! I couldn't find a single scene where I could tell or 'feel' that something was tampered with. Also, since english is not my native language and the edit doesn't have subtitles, I had the volume pretty high up, so I would have spotted if anything was off. So job well done here!

But, technical aspects aside, the important part, for me, is always the narrative. I can forgive editing mistakes if, overall, the editor has fixed the movie. So, did this "simple" trimming do anything for me? You bet!! I couldn't believe it! I actually enjoyed the movie much much more. It is amazing, sometimes, what the removing of certain brief scenes or some dialogue, can do for the overall narrative of a film. This edit is a testament that there is not always a need for aggressive editing (unless you are called The Phantom Menace). Sometimes there is a perfectly good movie to be found by just removing simple, but important, things. And in case you are wondering, yes, my two major issues that I had with the original, which I mentioned above, are completely gone!!

My enjoyment is 8 because it doesn't change the fact that I am not THAT fond of this movie, but still. Now it's on my radar for any future Star Wars marathons. So either if you did not like the movie, like myself, or even if you did like it, I can't think of a reason why this shouldn't be your go-to version of the film! I just hope someday we'll get subtitles also.

So, thank you DigModiFicaTion for your excellent work, thanks to anyone who read my review and may the force be with you!

i love this edition. the theatrical release seemed to me to take forever. this, however, seemed to keep me on the edge of my seat. great job of making this movie seem more enjoyable to sit thru

Being an extended edition viewer, I went into this edit with the presumption it was just going to be okay. But having viewed a few other of DigModiFicaTion's edits, I thought I'd give it a try. I'm glad I did. This is a tighter and a more fast paced edit. And I don't miss a thing that was in the theatrical release. Excellent job, DigModiFicaTion.
