Lose lose situation

Rating: 10/10 (24 March 2016)

This films has been absolutely getting demolished by critics. It's one of the most polarizing films I've ever seen It's gotten so bad to the point that if you like this film you're labelled a fanboy or dumb. If you dislike this film you're labelled a shill. This film is sure to be talked about for years so I may as well let my insignificant little opinion be known. I am more than content to be labelled a fanboy and let you know, I absolutely loved this film. To start, it's gorgeous, DP Larry Fong is at his A game and with Snyder flair for visual storytelling you'd be hard pressed to find a nice looking superhero movie.
But the real present this films gives us is great performances by everyone. Henry Cavill is endearing and conflicted as Superman/Clark Kent and provides nuances that just weren't available in Man of Steel. Gal Gadot, while not in the film for any great length was sexy and smart and a joy to watch. Even Jesse Eisenberg, although sure to be controversial, managed to give a great performance as the unstable Lex. Both Amy Adams and Diane Lane also provide memorable and endearing characters. But the most amazing thing this film gives is Ben Affleck as Bruce Wayne/Batman, conflicted and tough, this Batman may be the best he's ever been on screen. Although Affleck was at first met with disdain and hatred, he has managed to maybe be the definitive live action portrayal of the Dark Knight.
If you liked Man of Steel you'll probably like this one. If not, probably not for you but either way I'd say give it a fair and honest chance. This world deserves quality superhero films and I feel this is one of them.
