Yup number 1 for me as well but maybe try and make Sam L Jackson pop a little more like the guy on the front does.

Maybe add a high pass filter on Sam L Jackson and then set it to overlay to make him pop a little more...

Everything look great but I think the back image is a bit too bright, maybe lower the brightness and increase the contrast a little...
