Almost As Bad As Batman & Robin

Rating: 4/10 (28 March 2016)

Batman V Superman seemed promising, but unfortunately it is boring and empty. The film is set 18 months after the events of Man of Steel. Aparrently Batman is suspicious of what Superman may do and wants to eliminate him as a threat. The story is virtually nonexistent. There is no explanation for anything such as character background or story. In an action movie there has to be a point in the action. The characters need motivation. This is also a problem. There is no clear explanation to things. An example is the only scene with Flash. Flash says to Bruce that Lois is the key. This is one of many pointless scenes. Every scene feels pointless. I also don't like the grey color pallet. The grey pallet feels depressing. A superhero movie needs to look warm, fun, and inviting like a majority of the Marvel films. Jessie Eisenberg was concerning for maybe a few. Unfortunately he is a miscast. Even with proper casting, it would have been hard to make this Luther work because he has no motivation. The lone bright spots are in Ben Affleck, Gal Gadot, and Henry Cavil. All of them do a mostly decent job, except Affleck. Affleck's interpretation of Batman is hardcore which is fine, but unfortunately as I already mentioned, there is no point. Because I am limited here in length I am going to refer you to my review on Rotten Tomatoes. http://www.rottentomatoes.com/user/id/900037159/ratings
