Review Detail

I really enjoyed the new narrative, and the changes made certainly do make a tangible difference. Some parts that I particularly liked are how Lois is given more room despite not having more scenes (that's the power of a good narrative), how T chooses to blur Clark's face when Lois is hemorrhaging, how Pa Kent doesn't do the maybe line (and getting a huge upgrade from what Snyder and Goyer did with him), and how good the flashbacks have been used. On that, I'd say that I missed the Clark getting bullied and the Xray vision activation bits to show how far Clark has had to endure and adapt, and I do think that the presentation of the death of Pa Kent could still be improved- I still like it tho. Some of the edits in the first half are more noticeable since they transition a bit quickly, increasing pace up and cutting organic conversations midway. There is some noticeable obvious audio editing, and I could notice the changing soundtracks myself, but that's forgivable for the most part and shouldn't be even accounted by the uninitiated. While I do understand that the tone of this film does get an upheaval because of the increased saturation, I didn't like was how tacky the color grading gets in certain scenes.
I really like the trims, which do two things- 1, make Clark not so brooding; 2, remove some mindless collateral damage, and corny dialogue. I also liked the scene from BvS used near the end. I don't mind the retention of Supes having to kill Zod because it adds to the conflict of having to choose between Clark's own race and Humanity. But then I can't get past Snyder's choice of Clark immediately jumping the kryptonians, especially when he doesn't reason with Zod using some talk no jutsu lol, and when we screams "Krypton had its chance".. I also think that T could sure had used a small flashback to Zod killing JorEl when the former admits it to Kal, especially because without that whole scene it doesnt make sense for Zod to scream "I will find him" with full conviction... I should stop, I just might be getting ahead of myself.

Overall, this edit is testament to the fact that a good narrative is paramount to a film, and by molding it T does salvage MoS by leaps and bounds. So, well, Tremault/Triadne has done it-- fleshed the steel of the man that's Clark/Kal. I appreciate You T for your work, thank you!

(Would like to make a separate acknowledgement of the low file size and subtitles... Much obliged!)
