A fun romp. Greatly captures the action of Dark Knight Returns(comic). This movie sets up the DC movie universe and the dark take on the series is a welcome addition to the vast superhero movie genre.

I don't get the salt over this movie, I loved it and I totally get where Zack is coming from! In my opinion it's a better tone than Marvel's playful circus and I can't wait for the next films in the DCU.

This movie is vastly better than any of the recent Amazing Spider-man movies (which did not receive anywhere near this level of criticism) and I liked it better than the Avengers.

In my opinion, this is the third best live-action Batman movie after Nolan's The Dark Knight and Batman Begins (yes, I thought it was better than The Dark Knight Rises).… Expand

And this otherwise amazingFirst of all, to those who think this movie is bad, I agree with many of your criticisms. Snyder is a visual director who seems to create scenes first, then fill them with characters and finally add a story to them. And this otherwise amazing movie suffers because of that. Secondly, this film IMO is best superhero movie made after the Dark Knight film by Christopher Nolan not because it has the an intricate storyline like the one Nolan created, but because it pushes the envelope of what a superhero movie can be. I for one am sick of watching what seems like endless one liner comedy superhero films that Kevin Feige and Marvel vomit out every summer and find BvS to be wind of refreshing air due to its darker tone, deeper take on characters and its overall adult orientation. With regards to themes, they are Judaeo-Christian themes sprinkled liberally across this film and a unique take on a kind of "Friedrich Nietzsche atheism" in the character of Lex Luthor. Overall, the film was absolutely amazing. If you hated the theatrical version, don't hesitate to watch the ultimate cut because it is far superior and fills up the so called plotholes "critics" lamented.… Expand

It kept me interested for the whole time and it did so by cleverly swapping between action and storytelling. I think it reached as far in the direction of an intelligent movie as possible for an action movie .

It's dark, ambitious, and highly intelligent, has real warmth at its heart, and is better acted and directed than any comic book movie to date. Also, Zack Snyder does a far better job of pulling together all the various plot and character strands than Josh Whedon does in the Avengers films.

Indeed, I have a theory as to why Snyder's work gets panned, while garbage like The Avengers and The Force Awakens gets universally praised: critics today, like a large section of society, are infantilised, and thus are incapable of processing movies that require any amount of thought beyond five seconds. I mean, the entire plot of BvS is driven by fear of fascism and totalitarianism, with some of the characters - including Bruce - acting hysterically as a result. This is really weighty stuff, and worthy of acclaim for a comic book movie; but not one critic I have read appears to have grasped this central theme, even though it is rammed into their faces from the very start with the unsettling nod to Nietzsche (whom I would wager most critics have never even heard of).

It is, though, heartening to see that far more of the audience liked this film than did the critics, and that it made a heap of money. So perhaps there is hope that there will continue to be a place in cinema for Mr Snyder, who never fails to create really meaningful, visually stunning work.… Expand

I'm here to talk about The Theatrical Cut and The Ultimate Edition too. Actually I loved both of them!

I enjoyed every single moment in this movie -both cuts- from the operation credits -and I actually knew that it's gonna be perfectly directed- 'til the ending credits.

As the score, Hans Zimmer did it again with a great, ear-comfort and fitting soundtrack.

The direction is great, and the CGI was mistake-less and eye-comforting in every possible way it could be!

As the performances, I have no comment but AWESOME! A lot of people will disagree with me, but for me they were amazing!

And the last thing is the story, that satisfied me as a huge fan of DC, more than any other movie in the DCEU! For sure BvS is my favorite DC -and not only DCEU- movie of all time!… Expand

Let me start by saying, I see why this movie has gotten bad reviews from many, but the movie is incredible and here is why:

There are many scenes that can confuse your average movie-goer. This is because the movie requires some prior DC universe knowledge to fully comprehend what you are seeing. having a large DC comics collection and being a major fan of the DC universe I had no problem with this.

Now I know you're saying " Well shouldn't movies explain scenes like?" In most cases yes, however if they took the time to explain all of those details now the movie would be several hours longer. I won't mention which scenes I'm talking about but if you've seen it you will know.

So this movie is a movie that plays like a comic book almost. It is actually made for the fans of DC comics. Why is this good? Often movie studios don't give the kind of creative control to directors to let them make movies that require some prior knowledge (but Snyder also did this with Watchmen), but the fact that it was made this way will make the lore and story much deeper and connected. Many off the things you saw will make sense when the Justice League and Wonder Woman movies come out respectively. Directors have a choice: They can make a movie that appeals to the largest group of people, or a movie that appeals to the fans of the actual source material, Zack chose the later and I'm glad he did. If you want a crash course in some DC lore I recommend watching some of the animated films like Justice League: War.

Other than that notion: Batman was a total badass, superman had depth, the batmobile and batwing were incredible. Wonder Woman was awesome and against popular opinion I even liked Jesse Eisenberg's iteration of Lex Luthor.

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie and will definitely be seeing it again. If you don't know much about DC, study up on the DC universe if you like that sort of thing and it makes the movie that much better, but even if you don't the movie is cool as ****… Expand

One of the best hour-long fight sequence I've seen in a long time! The performances were all superb, in particular Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck, Amy Adams, Gal Gadot, and Jesse Eisenberg. The only "flaw" with this film is the first hour or so was a bit boring and dragging, just to introduce the characters of course. However, the last hour of the film is emotional, violent, entertaining, and visually stunning. If you've seen the trailers, you probably seen a major portion of this film. However, the film is still very entertaining and I was visually stunned. I think you have to see Man of Steel first in order to fully understand what is happening in this film. If you had expected Batman v Superman, than that is what you will get. Now about wonder woman - she is fine and pretty, but she was barely in this film, like around 15 minutes. Also, doomsday was okay if you've seen the trailer, that's just what he looked like. There is however a major plot twist that did feel a bit rushed, however I still enjoyed it. I hope they make a non-cash grab sequel to this film, and Henry Cavill/Ben Affleck should make another movie together. (93/100)… Expand

El problema que le impide ser una película redonda, es la narrativa. Snyder comete los mismos errores de Man of Steel y no parece apto o deseoso de corregirlos.

La historia intenta conectar rápidamente múltiples subhistorias y lo consigue, pero el exceso de información debilita la fluidez de una película que bien pudo ser dos entregas mucho más ordenadas.

Aún así, son mayores los aciertos que los errores y por ello, encuentro injusto reprobarla. De todos modos, DC debería plantearse la inclusión de nuevos directores para los pilares del DCEU.

Gracias, Snyder, por poner los cimientos. Es hora de dar un necesario paso al lado :-)… Expand

Overall, though, Snyder did well with blending Frank Miller's "The Dark Knight Returns" with parts of the animated movie "Justice League War" and the storyline of Superman v Doomsday. At first, I was worried about the casting of Affleck as Wayne/Batman, but after seeing his performance, I was very impressed. Jesse Eisenberg's portrayal of Luthor was pretty good for what they were going for and I can see him becoming an even stronger character in future projects.

The pacing is all over the place, lagging for largeBatman v Superman is perhaps the perfect microcosm of both Zack Snyder as a director and also the Warner Bros. vision for Superhero movies as a whole. The movie itself is a glorious mess. The pacing is all over the place, lagging for large portions of the movie, to a degree that threatens to lull the audience to sleep, and then suddenly ramping up to a speed that moves too fast for the plot in many places. There is little to no narrative flow as this movie more or less strings along unrelated scenes, end-to-end, which takes an already murky plot and throws it into near-indecipherable territory. This seems to be the biggest point of consternation for critics and is honestly a decent reason for Warner Bros. to consider asking Zack Snyder to take a step back from the director's chair, as these are all career-long vices of his (Watchmen, Man of Steel being past evidence of this);

And yet, despite all those fundamental mistakes, there's a lot to like here. Ben Affleck and Gal Gadot both proved to near perfect castings, despite early internet outrage directed toward both. If there's one major take away from this movie, it's that both character's solo movies in the DCEU have the ground work in place to be outstanding. Both Jeremy Irons and Laurence Fishburne were great too and hopefully as the DC Universe unfolds, we get even more of these ancillary characters. Also, as has become standard fare for Zack Snyder films, the film is beautiful. For everything he lacks as a story teller, the dude does some absolute magic with camera work.

Condensed down into the most generalized version, this film is being crucified to an unnecessary degree. Sure, the film whiffs on many fundamental chec lists but at the same time, the good largely outweighs the bad. It's by no means perfect (particularly if you're not the type to jump out of your seat at tiny little easter eggs embedded specifically to tease Justice League). That being said, there's enough here to not only watch this movie, but also be optimistic about DC's cinematic universe going forward.… Expand

DC/Warners have taken the bold move of making their own brand of movies rather than copy the Marvel blueprint and are getting lambasted for this. Critics just can't get it through their heads that there can be two brands of superhero movies. Those who lament the loss of Donner's Superman were probably the same people who criticised Singer for copying Donner. Affleck as Batman and Cavill as Superman are near perfect casting, whilst Gadot as Wonder Woman absolutely steals the show. In many ways this is a movie for comic fans.

My expectations were low because of the idiot critics. Also, I have always thought that the whole notion of Batman fighting Superman was silly. He has less then 0% chance in hell. But the way they did it in the movie was perfect. Just a really enjoyable, fun movie to watch with lots of great stuff going on. Loved Wonder Woman as well! The Batman fight scene was probably the best batman fight scene I have ever seen in a movie. Great job overall with almost everything. I can not wait for the rest of the DC stuff to get going now.
