Unfairly treated

Rating: 8/10 (26 March 2016)

I can understand that people don't like this movie because it's very dark compared to movies like "The Avengers". This is not a superhero movie for everyone.
The complaints I hear the most are that DC is trying to catch up with Marvel. That is true but it does not hurt the movie nearly as much as people make it out to be. The Justice League cameos are very brief compared to the useless Hawkeye cameo in Thor.
The good stuff: Ben Affleck is amazing as Batman. I believe he is the best live-action adaption of the character. People like to complain about how Batman is killing people in this movie but they are forgetting that he did so in the first movie in 1989. Michael Keaton Batman kills people, nobody panics. Ben Affleck Batman kills people and everyone loses their minds.
Henry Cavill did a great job as superman but we already knew he was going to. All the other actors were also good in their roles. Jesse Eisenberg did a great new version of Lex Luthor. No it's not the Lex Luthor you remember from the old superman movies and that is not a bad thing. Remember that Heath Ledger changed the joker a lot to make it his own character and that is what Eisenberg did.
My only major complaint is that it felt like the movie was too short. I think there should be more build up to the fight between the two heroes. Zack Snyder even said that he cut a lot of scenes from the movie and that they are going to be added in a "ultimate cut" on the blu-ray.
Don't listen to rotten tomatoes. See the movie and make your own opinion.
