Decent movie

Rating: 6/10 (27 March 2016)

I had high hopes for this movie, being a huge marvel and batman fan only to be disappointed. Don't get me wrong, this movie isn't bad, nor is it good. It is decent at best. I feel as though there was too many things going on at the same time, so many subplots that the director did not focus on. Instead, he hinted on them slightly before moving on and this really irked me! It felt like a great mess. I also think that the motivations for the fight between Batman and Superman were not well backed up and could have been avoided. The role of Lois Lane seemed almost unnecessary as well, it feels as though she had been forced to be in the film.
Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor was disastrous! I have never met a character more annoying. Moreover, Lex Luthor isn't supposed to be portrayed this way as in the comics, he's almost like how Batman is, calm, collected and intelligent as well as cunning.
Batman had prepared for a long time before facing Superman, so why would he stop short of killing Superman so easily? That makes zero sense. Also, it seems hypocritical that Batman would accuse Superman of being a threat to humanity when Batman was driving his batmobile and using missiles to wipe out cars? Pretty sure he killed quite a number of people in the movie.
--------------------------------------------------------------- Although this movie is average and has many bad elements to it, there are good parts that I would like to acknowledge.
Great fight scenes that will put you on the edge of your seat. Zack Snyder is pretty talented at directing fight sequences!
Amazing music that adds to the feel of the movie, especially when (Spoiler alert) Wonder Woman appears clad in her outfit! Lex Luthor's theme (The Red capes are coming) is amazing too!
I enjoyed the Batman here, he's darker and more intimidating and is really more athletic and acrobatic when fighting. The "Mark of Death" is unnecessary though.
The first part of the movie was pretty good IMO.
