Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice Key Points
- Jam packed full of crap
- The movie ultimately is jam packed full of so much fan service and plot threads that it becomes difficult to follow the narrative of the film.
- Inconsistent performances
- Ben Affleck and Gal Gadot do a decent job at portraying a brooding Bruce Wayne/Batman and a warrior Diana Prince/Wonder Woman.
- Jesse Eisenberg, while portraying a different kind of Lex Luther, comes off as a poor man’s Heath Ledger Joker.
- Amy Adams ultimately proves to be unneccesary to the film with little for her character to do amongst superheros, megalomaniac villians, meta humans, and Doomsday.
- Dear Zack Snyder: Lay off the Instagram Filter
- Please stop ruining beautifully shot visuals through a dark brown filter that makes it almost impossible to discern what the hell is happening on screen.
- Doomsday
- I thought this movie was about Batman vs Superman????
- Way too early to bring out The Death of Superman storyline.
