Mediocre

Rating: 5/10 (30 March 2016)

I LOVE Batman. I am okay with superman. I was extremely hyped for this movie. Was I let down? Yes. The biggest problem for me was that both Batman and Superman acted completely out of character. They did things which their lore counterparts would never do. For example: (very very minor spoiler): Batman is seen using firearms, snapping necks and branding criminals with hot iron like cows.
It felt like the screen writers researched the heroes for 5 minutes and then based their characters solely on that. The main duo was also pretty unlikable, I could hardly force myself to care about them and about what happens to them.
Okay, so depiction of the Batman and Superman sucked... so what about rest of the movie? There were good parts and there were bad parts. We can see some nice fights, but that is about it, most of the non-fighting parts in the movie fall petty flat and have many blind spots, where you find yourself having to try really hard to keep your attention focused on what is happening on the screen. So, how about rest of the cast? They suffer the same flaws as the two main heroes, they seem very dry and not particularly interesting. They lack the electricity which we can find in Marvel movies. Lex Luthor takes the cake, he is really hard to watch because of how annoying his character feels. I am talking about Jarjar levels of annoyance here.
To sum it up, this movie isn't a disaster but it is NOWHERE as good as it could have been.
The animated Dark Knight returns p1&2 is pretty much the perfected version of this movie.
