The Greatest superhero movie to start the DCEU.
This is what DC needed in order to start his acclaimed universe, I'm not going to say I'm a DC fanboy or a Marvel fanboy, I'm just a person who loves comic books and comic book movies. This movie has several flaws, but I don't think that the critics are doing a good job on rating it, they are been harsh on it and nitpicking with so many little things only to try brining it down or that's what they look like they are doing. So please do yourself a favor and be your own critic, as I said before is not a perfect movie, but I really think is one of the best comic book movies ever created because of what it stands for and for the adaptation of several comics all bind together to make a really compelling story and a great start for this universe.
First of all the movie is messy, there are a lot of cuts and going from scene A to scene B and then to F and on. But I don't think it will confuse you as a casual movie goer, on the contrary it will invite you to stay focus on every dialog and every scene to catch up and although I have said is messy, the information (it's actually a lot of information) will keep you in the movie because of the way the actors portray their characters so well, you will be 100 % invested on the movie. Now the performances, they are great, I'm serious, from Holly Hunter been Senator Finch to Ben Affleck been Bruce Wayne/Batman. All of the actors really did their homework and studied their characters so well you really get involved on what they do, their position, what they stand for and their conflict. The cinematography is gorgeous you can really tell that Larry Fong is back and that annoying shacky cam is out from the equation. And what can I tell you about the score, the soundtrack is mesmerizing! From the begging of the movie you get trapped in this world by the terrifying, dark, emotional, exiting and joyful soundtrack by Junkie XL and Hans Zimmer. I really think is one of the highlights of this movie. To conclude, please don't get discouraged by the awful critics, this is a movie that you have to see, you have to understand it, it is a very intelligent movie and has a lot of deep meaning into it, if you are a superhero fan, a comic book reader you will get pumped for all the action, the dialog, the references and eastern eggs thrown to you during the whole movie and if you are not, you'll still have an awesome story, a political thriller, compelling characters and exciting action that no other movie has.
