Disappointing

Rating: 6/10 (25 March 2016)

This movie has been getting so much hype, so saying that it was disappointing may not properly imply how short it falls. There is a decent number of things that are good about this movie, but they are seriously downplayed by the faults that it has.
Starting with the acting, I would say that most of the performances are just fine. Unfortunately, some of the characters felt like plot devices, as they weren't as involved in the story except for a few parts that felt like they were used to set up a subplot. Also, Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor might have been a miscast; his performance felt a bit over-the-top.
The movie's pacing is pretty flawed. The movie feels extremely rushed and it begins to get choppy as scenes don't transition well into the next one. Especially annoying is how forced it feels for the set up of other Justice League characters.
The action may be the movie's greatest attribute, but it still falls a bit short. For a movie titled Batman v Superman, the fight was pretty underwhelming. Other than that, a lot of the action felt pretty over-the-top, being able to catch the eyes merely with a bunch of destruction and explosions. Still the action was probably the most enjoyable part of the movie.
And now to sum up the rest of the movie's aspects. The movie looks nice, Zach Snyder does a good job making the movie visually appealing. The score is also decent, although some of it was recycled from Man of Steel. The script is pretty flawed in that it tries too hard to trigger an emotional reaction in some scenes but fails to do so most of the time.
Overall, the movie looks nice, but that's about all you can give to Batman v Superman. Still, don't base your expectations too much on these reviews. Just go watch and try to enjoy it as much as possible without worrying about other people's opinions.
