The idea of a film approaching a conflict between Batman and Superman had everything to make an excellent film, both in the visual aspects and in the emotions of the spectators. But Zack Snyder's film is unfortunately unsatisfying. The visualThe idea of a film approaching a conflict between Batman and Superman had everything to make an excellent film, both in the visual aspects and in the emotions of the spectators. But Zack Snyder's film is unfortunately unsatisfying. The visual effects aren't awful, but it's strange to think that a film with a budget of $250 million dollars is not capable of delivering a great visual result. Henry Cavill, Gal Gadot, Amy Adams and Ben Affleck do what they can with their charisma to make up for the thankless script. Jesse Eisenberg unfortunately seems to deliver the worst performance of his career, with an exaggerated interpretation of Lex Luthor - something even surprising considering that the actor usually stands out for his restrained style and few gestures. Even the score by Hans Zimmer and Junkie XL seems uninspired.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Let's set Martha's iconic scene aside for a second, though a note needs to be made nonetheless. Snyder's intention wasn't for Batman to spare Superman because of a coincidence about their mothers' names, but he spares him because for the first time he goes beyond the alien, he sees the Clark Kent as a person. Without this nice little speech, however, the scene is still largely illogical. There were like seven moments before that scene where Batman and Superman, instead of playing who had the biggest cock, could just confront each other and talk. 10 for the idea, 5 for the realization. The rest of the film is a mess. DC tried to keep up with Marvel by literally throwing everything into this film, shooting a sequence of scenes that the public, especially the general public, cannot understand! And also by entering a number of heroes, many of them with a time counted with a dropper on the screen, without there being a real underlying meaning behind this wicked idea. To make cinematic universes takes time and, above all, if you pillory a 2 and a half hour film, make sure it has a few moments of levity, because it's damned too heavy and it reaches the end that you're literally desperate. Not so much for what happens, because what happens happens a little by chance, a little for the needs of the plot. How much because you are mentally tested.… Expand

They gave the title of the movie to a 5-minute fight. While watching the movie, I wished he was the Joker and killed them both by hitting each other. It's one of the few movies I've ever been bored with. When it comes to his subject, Batman, who thinks he is the provider of justice on earth, sticks his nose in Metropolis and Superman is the setting for it. Over time, they hate each other more and more. Then they trump cards in a fight cage organized by business Lex Luthor. Do not think that one of the two will stay. Totally false. It's not versus, or it could be Lex Luthor vs Superman, Batman, Diana.

There is no sex or nudity in the movie. If you have that much patience, it can be watched as a family. But I think it's a complete disappointment.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The movie felt okish. The movie was highly hyped and had so many expectations but compared to them it was just meh. The story of the movie felt was not that bad, batman and superman both felt threatened against one another made a lot of sense, and the lex Luthor arc could have been better made tbh. THe one MAJOR issue the movie had was - pacing. The movie was prolonged. For the 2/3rds of the film, it was just dull, it took a lot of time for something interesting to happen. Tbh the story could have been a build-up from multiple movies instead of just a new film. The fight between B and S was short but good however the final fight scene was amazing and so was the cinematography I have to give that to the team it was just amazingly made. But other then than those 2 it was just a boring film. Lot of potentials was just wasted...… Expand

Released after "Man of Steel", the film seeks to be a logical continuity of its story, taking advantage of a rivalry relationship created between Superman and Batman. The film is a super-production, an expensive and visually flashyReleased after "Man of Steel", the film seeks to be a logical continuity of its story, taking advantage of a rivalry relationship created between Superman and Batman. The film is a super-production, an expensive and visually flashy blockbuster with a luxury cast and directed by Zack Snyder, but it doesn't always work well, as we'll see.

The film has many points of value, but the script is surely one of the most serious problems of this production. I appreciated the effort to try to relate to the previous film, but everything else fails badly: in the eagerness to try to justify its two and a half hours, this film gets as complicated as possible, with several subplots that do not receive attention, a barrage of characters and a far-fetched main plot, where a young and troubled Lex Luthor tries to turn Batman and Superman against each other. In fact, I got the idea that the film could be reduced to an hour and a half in length without any harm.

The film has a luxury cast, led by two big names: Henry Cavill and Ben Affleck. The execution of both is, however, highly dissonant: on the one hand, Affleck gives us one of the most complete and interesting works of his recent career, with great commitment from the actor and excellent results... on the other hand, Cavill seems to be out of the character, or making a titanic effort to fit in with her, which seems surreal considering how competent and dextrous he seemed to me in the preceding film. Jeremy Irons, who needs no introduction and has more than a handful of proofs in this art, has proven to be impeccable as Alfred, and Jesse Eisenberg steals our attention whenever he appears, in the shoes of an especially manic and psychopathic Lex Luthor. Less exciting is the participation of Amy Adams, who did everything she could, but was put in a corner by a script that doesn't really know how to take advantage of her. We could almost say the same for Gal Gadot, were it not for his stunning appearance closer to the end in the role of Wonder Woman. Laurence Fishburne is good, but I felt there was nothing here that he hadn't already shown in the previous movie.

Technically, the film is a visual spectacle based on an intelligent and deft use of all the CGI and visual effects resources available to Snyder. The cinematography is very good and the filming and camera work works very well. The film has a series of action scenes, with particular emphasis on the entire final sequence, which lasts about half an hour and is a real effects show that will delight lovers of this type of resource. The film also has good costumes and an excellent soundtrack, which is signed by Hans Zimmer.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Batman v superman is bad, both as an independent movie and an adaptation of the DC characters' stories. As most Zack Snyder movies are it is visually incredible, with great score and amazing costume design.

Storywise it is boring, overstuffed and undercooked all at the same time, it yet again misunderstands the appeal of Superman and makes him overly dark. It presents an older batman who's been through all the stories we've come to expect from batman, yet still feels the need to show us the death of his parents yet again. It mixes too many comic book stories into a much worse adaptation, and it expects us to take superman's death seriously after 2 movies into the cinematic universe.
Its a smart dumb movie, a movie that thinks it's smarter than it actually is, but that treats it's viewers like children that need to be handled through the whole experience.

It does however have one of the most entertaining villains in recent memory, he is very smart and feels like he's constantly 5 steps ahead of our protagonist leaving only slight clues and nods, unfortunately it's Lex Luther not the Riddler

Its better than man of Steel but is still not good… Expand

Gal Gadot is introduced as Wonder Woman in this movie and is honestly stillFirstly, Ben Affleck is still an excellent Batman. I find him incredibly charming as Bruce Wayne while also portraying the jaded and the rage-filled Batman perfectly. Gal Gadot is introduced as Wonder Woman in this movie and is honestly still one of the best parts. She is very elegant and mysterious as Diana but then an absolute badass as Wonder Woman. Jeremy Irons is snarky and wise as the beloved Alfred as well. Henry Cavill returns as Superman and Amy Adams returns as Lois Lane with both still doing a great job in their respective roles. There are some other supporting actors new and returning who all do fine jobs as well.

The cinematography by Larry Fong is really good and visually there are still some great shots. Hans Zimmer returns to score but is now collaborating with Junkie XL and it is an absolute phenomenal score. The Batman theme is amazing, the Wonder Woman theme is exciting and the Lex Luthor theme is unsettling. There is more oomph in the score thanks to Junkie XL which makes the action scene feel more thrilling. On that note, the action scenes concerning Batman are exceptional. The Metropolis destruction but from Bruce Wayne perspective is one of the most exciting intros in a superhero movie ever. It also perfectly captures the destruction from a bystander view and also illustrates exactly why Batman hates Superman. The Batmobile chase sequence is also quite a stand-out with how awesome it is. Just seeing the Batmobile destroy everything in its path is fun to watch. The Batman warehouse fight scene is the best to have ever graced the screen. It is choreographed amazingly and shot in such a way that it is easy to see what is going on while still feeling every punch. However, the same can't be said with the Batman vs Superman fight. Rewatching it again makes me see how underwhelming this fight is. The first thing to note that is only one fight between these two characters in a 3-hour movie which already sucks but the fight itself is visually boring. It's choreographed in a way that feels like it is from a slapstick comedy. Superman launches him through some walls, Batman gases him and then punches him in the face for a bit, repeat and that's the fight. Superman acts dumb in the fight and Batman just moves slowly due to the armour which leads to a really silly fight to watch. I think people tear into it a lot but the fight resolution of Martha is still quite silly. I think the idea behind it is fine with Batman realizing Superman's humanity. It's just that the scene doesn't convey this very well and put too much emphasis on the "Martha" name instead of the human aspect. It's also executed very clunkily which leads to an ironically hilarious scene when it shouldn't be. The fight against Doomsday at the end is just a big CGI-fest against some dark grey looking thing at night. It's hideous to look at with its abundant of grey and black colours with overly flashy lights that just makes it seem dull. The story has 4 perspectives with the Batman one being the best. His hatred for Superman is understandable and trying to get the Kryptonite to fight him is the most easily enjoyable parts. On the other hand, Superman's perspective is so boring and forgettable. The people treating him like a hero or a god while some detesting him is fine. It's just he is so mopey in every scene which makes every scene involving him just not fun to watch. There is also a weird part in his arc where he goes into a snow mountain and hallucinates his dad which was just so dumb. The Ultimate edition adds more Clark Kent investigation which adds more to it and shows that he dislikes the brutality of his method and the fear he causes which is more understandable. Lois Lane is also another perspective with her trying to figure out who is producing this mysterious bullet. It's a very pointless perspective and quite a waste of time considering it amounts to something that the audience already knows, Lex Luthor was the one who did it! Lex is also the last perspective with him dealing with senators who obstruct him and him building a monster just because I guess? His perspective is fine for the plot but it's not enjoyable to watch because of the actor.

Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor is one of the worst casting choices I have ever seen. While every other actor feels grounded and serious, Jesse Eisenburg feels very cartoony and over the top. It's made worst as a majority of his lines are dumb. There are some great lines from Lex but they are poorly executed because of Jesse's terrible performance. His character's motivation is understandable but his whole plan is borderline ridiculous and convoluted. The noted Knightmare sequence just happens midway through the movie without any setup or any reference later. Likewise for the future flash sequence which you think Batman would make a note of later but doesn't. There is also the famous Wonder Woman checks her email sequence that is just so unnecessary.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. (ULTIMATE EDITION) So here's what I love about this film: I do believe that Ben Affleck plays the best comic book version of the Batman. Whenever he delivers his lines I simply believe that he is this character and he also looks the part more than any other actor who portrayed this character. I love the tone and overall I think the movie is visually stunning for the most part. I like that key characters initially have clear motivations and are fleshed out. Score is phenomenal too and fight scenes are worth re-watching. I DON'T LIKE how this movie tries too achieve more than it should - introducing members of the justice league (through short videos sent via e-mail, like... What?) Making Lex Luthor the main villain when it could have easily been just Batman vs Superman. No need to have a mastermind pulling the strings. Just have two forces be pitted against each other. Also, Eisenberg's performance is annoying. I don't even care that it's not accurate to the comics, it's just annoying. Doesn't strike me as a villain who should be feared. Looks like a spoiled brat that could just get slapped and would cry somewhere in a corner. Anyway, Martha scene... I get what they were trying to achieve but it was just too sudden, so it just cracks me up every time I see it. They needed some other way to show superman's humanity to Batman. Then killing off superman in his second movie was a mistake. Way too soon and Wayne with Diana talking at the end like they knew Kent for centuries. That was dumb. Batman's nightmare should have been cut out. So out of place (or after credits scene maybe?) Not going to even talk much about Doomsday. Just.. (sigh). I'm still hopeful for DC. I'm a fan.… Expand

Would’ve been better if the movie tried to tell us a story of its own rather than cram a bunch of iconic story events from various comic books (TDKR, Death of Superman, etc...) even though it would be better if they were, you know, reserved for the FINALE of the DCEU instead of being rushed in its second film.… Expand

This was not any where near as good as Captain America Civil War, The casting option of Lex Luther was poor the plot was not that great. Not only that but the plot is just silly and doesn’t work.

That only line from the movie describes perfectly the relation between the public and this movie. Is not nearly as bad as how much people say, but not a masterpiece like how some DC fans say. Is not a bad movie, but is neither an excellent movie. It has a lot of flaws in it's structure. There are scenes that are horribly executed like the "Martha" thing. If you see it in a technnical way, you'll see a very disorganized mess of a movie, if you see it like just a story, you'll get an interesting story about the clash of the two greatest superheroes of all time in a philosophical background. That's when my second problem with this movie comes, the third act. The payoff to all this plotlines that have been builded up to the end of the movie just end in a dumb blockbuster way. Like the conflict between Superman and Batman, that ends with a CGI monster destroying all of the internal conflict.

Esta historia inicia con el origen de Batman para luego transportarse en el medio del climax de "Man of Steel" donde Bruce Wayne se da cuenta del poder destructivo de Superman y el riesgo potencial que representa para la humanidad; mientras Clark Kent en su nuevo rol como periodista se percata del desatado vigilante que tiene atemorizada a la gente de Gotham por su brutal forma de combatir el crimen, poniendo así a Batman en la mira de Superman, y viceversa.
Si hay algo que destacar es la fotografía, cada cuadro esta bien pensado y captado para que cada imagen se sienta icónica, y resalte en pantalla. Como el interior de la Baticueva con los artículos recolectados por Batman a lo largo de sus aventuras, o la estatua de Superman profanada con la leyenda Falso Dios.
El error absoluto de "Batman v Superman" son los huecos argumentales, hay tantas cosas ocurriendo en pantalla que no se sienten propias de los personajes, como así también otras que se dan por sentado, por lo que uno se desentiende de las motivaciones de los protagonistas. Sin mencionar las malas decisiones como el facilitador usado de "Martha" para poder poner fin al conflicto entre héroes y saltar al nuevo climax.
Sin lugar a dudas esta película es muy pesada en contenido, y la versión cinematográfica pierde mucha calidad por los recortes de escenas. Sólo la recomiendo si eres muy afín de los personajes, y si vez la versión extendida de Blu-Ray.… Expand

This seems to be the new trend in superhero movies, and it's stupid. Most of the cameos for the flash and some of the other superheros were very poorly written.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Batman v Superman
The movie has a welcomed serious tone and a depth that is intriguing, but it twists itself around ruining the characters. Overall I really enjoyed parts, but it makes me want to know what was reshot and what they changed on the cutting room floor. I loved one theme of the story; the theme of Superman being an idol/god to many people, and the danger that may cause. Batman distrusted this unequal balance of power of a god Superman, and it seemed like a true motivation to oppose Superman. This would have been a perfect setup for a Bizarro Superman to trick the masses, and become a real false god who abuses his power. But instead the movie relied on unreasonable misunderstandings between Batman and Superman that ruined any good logic of the characters.

The movie made Batman emotionally blind and sadistic, and the way he treats Superman is moronic. The movie basically created a big misunderstanding that goes on most of the movie, so that Batman wants to sadistically murder Superman. His detective skills and reasoning are gone from this movie. A few scenes are enjoyable like when Batman is purely badass to the bad guys. Batman is only a "good" guy because we like Batman, but if he were dressed in a different custom then his actions would make him the villain. Superman is mute and moronic. The US government is condemning of Superman and distrusts his powers, all because of a big misunderstanding, yet Superman has no voice. Everything about Superman's thought process is slow, and frustrating to watch. Doesn't Superman talk ever to explain? (Yeah I know he shows up at Congress well into the movie). doesn't Lois Lane even write articles to explain her first hand knowledge of Superman? Does Superman land far away from Batman so he can moronically walk into Batman's trap, and meekly tell Batman about the misunderstandings orchestrated by Lex Luther? The movie tried to make Lex Luther be the glue to connect everything together. He invites Batman, Clark Kent, and Wonder Woman to the same party. He has files on the other mutants. He has access to all science and money, bails out the guy in the wheelchair, and gains access to Zod's ship. He has his finger in EVERYTHING and pulls the strings to trick EVERYONE. It was too much, and not a satisfying plot connection. Also he shows up everywhere as the plot needs to force him to connect, which was only topped by Lois Lane being everywhere as the plot needs.

The movie relied on both main characters, Batman and Superman to be stupid and not empathetic to each other, which hurt the film. They resolve their differences immediately in the movie, with a stupid connection, and they forget the whole hate for each other. The film makers forced the team to come together for the end scene. They did fine with including Wonder Woman, in fact I felt proud when they were all working together. But it was lame how they pasted in the other mutant characters like Cyborg, Aquaman, Flash, by using top secret camera footage that was like posed commercials.

I enjoyed the foreshadowing scene of Batman's dream in the desert, of evil superman, flying bug guys, someone in a portal warning Batman. Did they intend to have Superman evil at some point? We shall see if this is all meant for later movies, but it shows how unfocused this film is.

Final annoyance, Why does Doomsday's roar sound EXACTLY THE SAME as every big monster IN EVERY MOVIE??… Expand

They didn't even know each other, so its hard to feel like there's any weight behind the fight. It portrays batman as being vengeful and illogical. Yet Batman is supposed to have one of the greatest deductive minds in all of DC.

Instead here is how it should have gone. 1. Batman should never have been the one branding and killing criminals. Instead it should have been Deathstroke hired by Luthor and perfectly disguised as "Batman" to be the one killing and branding. This of course would make Superman think that Batman is a thug and thus his motivation to stop him. Of course we as the audience would not know right away that sometimes when we see Batman that's its not really him, that reveal would come about half way through where "Batman" removes the cowl and we see that its really Slade Wilson pretending to be Batman. Then we as the audience would see the pieces start to make sense.

2. At the same time that Deathstroke is mascarading as Batman, Luthor is fabricating incriminating stories and events against Superman. Thus causing Batman to think that Superman is a malevolent god. Likewise this big reveal happens for us and our two heroes in the middle of the movie and we all realize that's its all a set up. Luthor, by pitting Superman and Batman wants their fight to cause destruction in both Gotham and Metropolis. Why? Money. Luthor whole motivation for anything is money and power. And the value and power of LexCorp skyrocketed after his investments into the post Man of Steel rebuilding effort, and Luthor is so drunk with power and money that he is willing to manipulate our two heroes into causing city wide destruction so that he can continue to profit. So that's my idea in a nutshell. I know it doesn't solve every problem with the movie.

And btw, they should have watied to do a true Batman vs Superman movie several movies into the DCEU after Batman and Superman have a strong and established relationship of friendship and trust. In this versus movie Superman would have been infected by whatever version of kryptonite makes him evil. Batman is thus forced to engage him, and either has to find a way to defeat the effects of the evil kryptonite or he has to kill Superman with green Kryptonite.… Expand

Batman V Superman isn't nearly as bad as the critics made it out to be. Sure it's a disappointment, but not what I'd call bad. The story tries to cram in too much yes, and the villains are a little pathetic, but where all else fails, Batman shines. Ben Affleck's Batman fits in well with the darker tones of the movie, and that warehouse fight scene resembles much of the critically acclaimed Arkham series. The fight between Batman and Superman, whilst short, is still entertaining and miles better than the lacklustre fight that was Master Chief V Locke. Wonder Woman also shines as one of the best features of the movie.

However, Lex Luthor is just plain weird, Doomsday resembles more of a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle crossed with a cave troll and Superman is pretty dull for the most part and the story is just a mess.

The score is fantastic as one could expect from Junkie XL. The cinematography is stunning and the costume design really captures all of the characters their equipment (I adore the Bat-mobile's design).

TL;DR
Batman and Wonder Woman shine.
Superman is boring
The cinematography and action is stellar
The score is stunning
Prop and costume design is wonderful
Story is a mess
Villains disappoint
Warehouse scene is one of the best superhero action scenes in a movie

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Definitely one of the more controversial films released over the past few years, it almost seems like BvS was a victim of its own hype. Ben Affleck, Jeremy Irons, Gal Gadot were great castings for their specific roles. Jesse Eisenberg gets alot of crap but I compare him very favorably to Zemo (a villain I actually enjoyed greatly) in Captain America: Civil War though his motivations aren't as clear cut as Zemo's were. Superman was barely in this movie and whenever Amy Adam's Louis Lane is on screen, her character in the theatrical cut is useless and idiotic by the way which isn't helped by Adam's almost completely phoned in performance. When it comes to Louis, my issues with her almost go back to Man of Steel. I really feel like she was completely miscast and that an actress who could actually take the role and run with it, like Jessica Chastain preferably would have been much better than what were getting now from Amy Adam's. But back to the film, it almost felt like this movie suffered from an identity crisis and forgot whether it wanted to be a Batman movie, a Superman movie or a Justice League Prequel. That being said, the story is convoluted with issues that go from wasteful story arcs, very unfleshed out scenes that cause an uncohesive story that has so much going on that it's hard to keep the audience's attention focused on the premise at hand. Overall, the theatrical cut wasn't awful by any means. Ben Affleck brings it as Batman and Gal Gadot was elegant as Wonder Woman and It's certainly not the worst movie ever made nor does it deserve the comparisons to Fan4Tastic it was receiving on release. While I'm settling on a 6/10 for the theatrical cut, I did find the EC to be more in line for a 7-7.5/10 as it fixes alot of the issues and offers a more cohesive storyline than that of the cut that was shown in theaters.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I wanted to like it, but there wasn't much for me to like. (or maybe there was too much for me to dislike)

Overall an okay film. Way too easy to nitpick and I wasn't looking forward to it to begin with so I may come off a bit jaded but here you go.
It was far too dark (both visually and thematically) for my taste. I mean seriously, Are both Metropolis and Gotham cursed with an eternal overcast? If that's the case how the hell does Superman stay powered?
WAY too long of a film. I got bored a few times and found myself losing interest in the narrative on occasion. Some of the plot points made absolutely no sense for the players involved but how often does a Superhero movie make sense? I think the editor fell asleep a few times. Plus the ending felt like The Return of the King ending all over again. It could have ended about 12 times and had been much much better.

I give it a 6 of 10. Not bad but not great either. Wont be buying it. Hope Justice League is better.

Below are a few bits that annoyed me the most:

- Lex is annoying. Seriously, this is not the Lex Luthor that would be a foil for Superman, this is something else...not sure what.
- Batman is an **** And also very gullible for a master detective. I mean seriously, the dude has some serious mental health issues that makes him not see the obvious.
- Superman is,,,well the same MoS Supes we saw in the first film. Not much going on there for a 'sequel' film.
- Wonder Woman is amazing. Certainly the highlight of the film. I wish she had had more screen time and look forward to seeing more of her.
- Doomsday is...ugh...three words. What. A. Waste.
- Lois Lane is useless...again a total waste. No character development from the first film at all. Just someone to save and cry over her loss.
- The Justice League Cameos. Again, pointless. Could have been saved for an end credits bit and would have been much more impactful.
- and seriously? Martha? ugh… Expand

In visual and technical terms the film is very good the cgi is well used the cuts are very good, often imperceptible , The photograph focuses well on the facial espressoes and the action scenes are well developed, but the plot should be better, it could not, SHOULD be better at several moments it is the focus of the main focus of the henredo which is very massante, the dire Ben Affleck's Batman, an embittered batman and even traumatized by the losses of his parents, is arrogant, intelligent and this time much more violent, even killing bandits. , Which in my opinion is very good all that a bruce wayne needs to have, Henry Cavill as clark kent / superman is very good also he unmasks very well the internal doubts of the character and his kindness assuma of all things, Amy Adams as Lois lane is ok, Jesse Eisenberg plays lex luthor which is not very good, he even tries to integrate a decent character but this does not happen as well as planned but his motivations are not at all plausible, highlight Jeremy Irons Like alfred, he manages to integrate a remarkable character and similar to that of hq what for the min is very good. In general it is an ok movie with a lot of errors in the script, some disposable characters, and an elusively long plot for little content, but with A good production, good character (highlight for the uniforms that are very good), and a villain half-mouth, note 64… Expand

The first act was okay the second meh and the ending was great. So its kinda mixed imo. Affleck as batman killed it. Cavill was fine. But I think the movie suffered from the narrative being lost in the action. Not balanced well at all.

Jeremy Irons feels more like Alfred than Caine ever did (with a more doubting and cautious personality than Michael Caine's happy-go-lucky cockney portrayal). I also enjoyed Ben Affleck's Batman; feeling much more like the muscled hidden-in-plain-sight playboy billionnaire of the graphic novels. And yet, the movie still failed because of an awful script, all the create the contrivance that is why Batman would fight Superman. Logically this makes no sense whatsoever, and for this to work it needed a much more nuanced plot than we ended up getting. Batman disliking him because his attempts to save the world as well as his presence ended up killing innocent lives isn't good enough, not on its own. The worst thing is it could have acted as an exploration of Batman's character. This would make sense if it was actually Batman running away from the fact his own actions cause exactly the same problems... His own existence causes other psychopaths to murder and steal in Gotham city. Batman v Superman should have been about the fact he was actually fighting the things he was running away from in himself, projecting them onto Superman.

Marvel's Universe was just as guilty in their Civil War film. Superheroes fighting each other makes no sense, not unless the fight is ideological (which usually stems from whether it is acceptable to kill or not), but neither Universe wants to taint their biggest franchises. To me, the difference is at least Civil War provided an enjoyable movie that kept my suspension of disbelief well enough to not detract from the experience. The same, sadly, can't be said for Batman V Superman.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Very disappointing story. It made Batman/Bruce Wayne out to be a brainless individual. In the comics he was never stupid like this potrayal.
Too dark and serious with extremely limited humour (which these type of films need)
I think they realised because Suicide Squad was much better.
Hoping the lesson is also learned for the Wonder Woman and Justice League movies.
My brother is a huge Batman fan (above all other heroes)and he was immensely disappointed that the Batman character was such a **** in this film.… Expand

Somehow he managed to take DC's two most popular superheros and screw them over. I never had hope in Zack Snyder, as he never was able to create a decent film (at most). Warner Brothers biggest flaw was allowing such a mediocre person direct a film. Batman v Superman wasn't too complicated however it was all over the place, I never truely knew what the story was trying to push. However the action and video effects were good and enjoyable. I loved watching Batman and Superman battle out (unfortunately for only 10 minutes). The film took too many weird turns and alot of times it felt more alike as the film was more of a chore to watch then it is an a source of entertainment. Its not terrible by all means, however I expected alot more, I was very disappointed and I dont think DC is focusing on making there films entertaining and memorable as they used to, instead making films is only a way to make quick money.

Overall Batman V Superman has its flaws, however its not a terrible film, saying that as well its not a good film at all. There are too many plot holes and concepts that dont make sense at all that im very disappointed in the turn DC took and hopefully in the future can find better ways to create blockbuster films without ruining an entire franchise *Maybe fire Zack Snyder and get a good director?*

It seems Warner Bros. is in a real hurry to reveal their comic book universe on the screen, thus already in their second movie they throw two the most iconic DC characters in a clash. However, even so accomplished visionary like Zack SnyderIt seems Warner Bros. is in a real hurry to reveal their comic book universe on the screen, thus already in their second movie they throw two the most iconic DC characters in a clash. However, even so accomplished visionary like Zack Snyder and his team failed to reach the bar, set by comic book genre and under the heap of visual effect and expressly darkness there's buried not much, because nor story, nor drama can't satisfy even in general. Moreover, careless editing and rambling screenplay harm for acceptance of positive moments.

The film starts with Bruce Wayne's parent's death and funeral scene. Such trivial opening expresses, that what you're about to see is pretty lateral and boring. On the other side, without it, Batman's motives would be not just stretched, but in absence. And it's a problem of whole movie, especially if it take into consideration that it's based on a conflict between different sides. So, no one's side position is normally justified. Whether it's Lex Luthor, who hates Superman so much, that are ready to create monster of mass-destruction and play with alien technologies, or a grumpy billionaire, who's building was destroyed during the alien invasion and now he's possessed by the idea of killing humanity's savior only because of some kind of a prejudice. In some way, there can be made parallels with Lex's mentioned childhood issues and Batman's painful experiences, but nothing of that is explained more than for a little glimpse in a whole scenario. Otherwise, Chris Terrio's script isn't bad at all, as its partially filled with some sort of drama or suspense, but it seems like it should be a multiple times longer and what we see in movie is a rough cut of it. Indeed, film is full of different story lines and characters and they are so unbalanced and intricate. So you just getting bored by all that mess, because nothing is being interpreted on cinema language and you're continuing to watch clips from different movies at the same time. Eventually, visually film looks pretty stunning, despite on its excessive dark tone. However, even this side screwed by two things. First - the lack of action, which starts approximately only in the second half, so to this moment, after all of its gloom, you are waiting of something really amazing, but what you're getting, it's «not really». Second - all actions scenes are spoiled buy enormous quantity of GCI, even where it's unnecessary. Moreover it's not so cool, as it can be. At the same time, scene of Batman rampage closer to the third act is quiet impressive, although a bit ruined by character's unreasonable savageness to his enemies. No one argues that Batman is one of the most brutal DC heroes, but in this movie he goes real mad without any, at least explained, reasons. At the same time exactly Batman's shape reaches the needed minimum within character development. Of courses, his motives are truly unknown and as a Bruce Wayne Ben Affleck is too grim or just hasn't enough time to show himself in all his glory, but there is a feeling, that after David S. Goyer left script to Terrio, Oscar-winning screenwriter started to develop screenplay especially for his friend Affleck, because In some way, film oriented on his hero, neither on others. And it's obvious, as Superman's character story takes much less time and concentrated almost on mash-ups and «catchphrases». The same thing happens to others heroes, even for well-acting Jeremy Irons' Alfred and very intriguing Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman. Nevertheless, film fully failed to develop any of its characters. Especially, it effects badly on Jessy Isenberg's Lex Luther, who is interesting and a great-played character, but, due to the script, seems to become just another freaked genius with Joker style manners and actions. «Man of Steel» wasn't really a great movie, but it gave a solid boost for the universe expansion. Unfortunately, «Batman v Superman» didn't reach any of its goals. However, film's not a total fiasco and if try to perceive it by parts, even some value can be found, but in summary it only continues first movie's problems and buries powerful ideas under the mass of rough storytelling, weak character development and excess of visual effects.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First off, yes, I am a fan of Marvel. But I am also a fan of DC and superhero films in general. The theatrical version of BvsS was not a bad movie, but it did have a number of problems that could not be ignored. First, the overall tone. I am a fan of darker films like Dredd and Watchmen, though they did not allow the tone to affect the whole movie. Both had interesting characters, great action sequences,and some light humor throughout to sustain the film. BvsS did not meet all this criteria. The darker versions of ALL the characters and the lack of any joy did not project the film in a positive light. The biggest issues, however, follow the overall writing and editing. The story, while wonderful in a number of ways, falls into illogical stupidity the next. I'm very sorry, but the 'both are mothers are Martha, we must be friends' is not justifiable to end such a fight. And the theatrical version is horribly edited throughout. The unlimited version, however is a different question. It inhancestors the film a great deal, but cannot help much of the horrible writing. The film is wonderful in a number of ways. The performances of Eisenberg, Gabot, and Irons are amazing is there own sense, and the rest are varying degrees of good. Snyder, though misguided, did provide a spectical film. Overall, see the unlimited version to appreciate the performances, action, and certain elements of writing. The story and tone, however, are not perfect by any means, and I can only hope Warner has learned from the mistakes in thus film.… Expand

- Wonder Woman
- Justice League
- The Flash
- dream sequences
- dumb humor
- dumb drama
- dumb violence
--and last but not least--
- Doomsday

This movie should have been focused completely on the core relationship between Batman and Superman. Why do these guys hate each other? More importantly, why do they want to kill each other so much that they are willing to commit murder in order to do so? This movie's problem is the lack of focus in basic storytelling. This movie shouldn't be an exposition for movies five or maybe even ten years later, it should be a movie; especially since it's the second in a cinematic universe.

I also think that it should have taken away a lot of its focus on Lex Luthor and Lois Lane.

This movie, however, has a lot of awesome visuals, good performances, an amazing score, and some other stuff that I'm too lazy to mention.

This movie was okay.

Also, Ben Affleck is totally NOT the best Batman.… Expand

On one hand, I was satisfied with the film, but on the other, I felt like this film was released to early. Even still, I was hopeful for BvS. After the disaster that was Star Wars Episode 7, I needed a movie to get me excited for something again. Unfortunately, BvS was a film of extreme ups and downs. The film absolutely excels in its action and visuals, and both Henry Cavill and Ben Affleck fit very well in the roles of DC's two biggest characters. But the film is also overstuffed, unfocused, and lacks proper build-up. For me, DC's desire to compete with Marvel is costing them dearly, especially since Captain America: Civil War came out this year as well, which is without a doubt, one of Marvel's best films. They need to take their time to build a proper universe, instead of trying to fit numerous unrelated stories into each of the movies. So for me, I'm still recommending for people to check it out, just be sure to keep your expectations in check.… Expand

Overall he ranks third for the role, behind Bale and Keaton. There could have been more story around building his plan to fight Superman. They really forced the main villian (spoiler) Doomsday was kind of forced into being quickly was well. Lex Luthor came across as a little childish and Michael Rosenbaum's portrayal was significantly better. Wonder Woman come out of this film as the best hero.
