Good but long

Rating: 8/10 (31 August 2016)

Well it's hard where to start . Christian Bale made Batman his own , taking the character back to its dark roots. Affleck, well he was Daredevil.
We start the movie with the end scene of Man Of Steel but seen from the perspective of Bruce Wayne being in the city. This sets out the background for the strength of feeling of Wayne.
Lou's Lane is her usual self , out tying to get every big story which leads to conspiracy theories (can't go into depth or will spoil the plot)
In the meantime Clark Kent attempts to distract stories from Superman onto Batman and finds resistance.
Enter Jesse Eisenberg as Alexander Luthor to expand his character and what a job he does . He is a kind of R P McMurphy character (one flew over the cuckoos nest) you know he is up to something but can't quite figure out what or why.
The developments are slow but dramatic and when the film explodes into action it does so in exactly the way you would expect from Zac Snyder.
Is it to long, yes but well worth the watch , with me watching the ultimate edition which is supposedly better leaving no loose ends.
It's a superhero movie don't expect anything else....
