So it won't fix Batman being a complete psychopat and Superman/Clark Kent being devoid of emotion?
Batman was always the clinical definition of a psychopath, and it'll fix the superman problem because you'll watch the movie again and know that you're claim is without merit.

Just read a very in-depth write-up on Reddit of the changes in the UC and it really does sound like a much improved movie, particularly in illustrating just how Lex was pulling the strings and manipulating Clark and Bruce. Having a hard time linking the exact comments here though

It's unbelievable how pieces fall into form with these scenes. Not only Clark is a character now (how DARED THEY to cut the bombing aftermath with Superman saving people) but superflous plots like the Africa attack become the driving force of the movie, and of course, Lex gets better understood.

I will make an OT the 29th, but it's absolutely clear the UC is the real BvS and that Snyder was mandated to botch a perfectly working story. That said, it's also clear that the movaie is not a typical mainstream effort, and due to the tone of the deleted stuff it leans more to thriller featuring superheroes. Whether that works for you or not depends on you.

Can't wait to see it! Probably going to be the first movie for my home theater where I really open it up and let the ground shake.

Looks like there's a small chance, a very small chance, that we may have a Kingdom of Heaven on our hands.
More like a Daredevil/Watchmen. The storyline is not completely altered (well, aside from two or three parts) but it now makes sense.

Some theatrical cut scenes were rearranged too! Now formerly separated ones are together. Yes, I'm talking about the first Lex's scenes.

All scenes have been posted on YouTube

I cannot believe there is a scene of the bat branded sex trafficker getting shived in prison LOL

If that's all it doesn't change that much but it does make so many things clearer: Clark's hatred for Batman, Clark's self-doubt, why Superman was even on that Senate hearing, and Lex's masterplan. Plus it makes Superman more human (helping the victims), and explains why couldn't he prevent the attack.

Larry Fong (the DP) already said that if you hated it, you'll still hate it. If you loved it, you'll love it even more.

I guess if you were kinda ehh about it and had issues with it, it might fix some of those issues for you. Just don't expect any miracles. It's the same movie. Just 30 minutes longer and with some scenes playing out differently.

Apparently it was not all the scenes but at least 20 or so minutes of them.

He actually changed his mind the other day and says he thinks everyone will love it now. - https://mobile.twitter.com/larryfong/status/741303136271388672

Someone posted the Africa clip online and it doesn't seem to fix anything. It actually makes things a lot worse as now
the US had a drone feed of the Mercs killing the rebels, and they were in the midst of drone striking the compound. Meaning all the negative effects of Superman's intervention were going to happen anyway. Only you had the US government trying to murder Lois Lane because fuck it.

Well if nothing else, the US grossly misusing drones sounds more realistic.
