No Justice Whatsoever.

Rating: 7/10 (25 March 2016)

This is my first review, and I actually wanted to tell my thoughts about this movie as soon as I got out of the theater.
Being a DC fan, I probably had a lot of expectations from this movie. I was terribly mistaken. Before you read any further, this review contains spoilers, so proceed at your own risk. Okay so the cast was brilliant, except maybe, Jesse Eisenberg. I am not particularly a fan of a psychotic Lex Luthor. Ben Affleck is very good as Batman, his voice is particularly amazing. His fight sequences are well directed. Henry Cavill is good as Superman. You kind of feel sympathetic for him throughout the first half of the film. But the best part of the movie was no doubt, Wonder Woman. I can safely say that the whole audience cheered when they show in her costume, and she did a pretty good job with her accent. Now the flaws: 1) The storyline: The first scene where Bruce Wayne is shown in Metropolis, amazing sequence. I had a feeling that this movie would definitely be one of the greatest superhero movies ever made, just by how beautifully this scene was integrated with the events of MOS. The buildup was slow in the first half and kind of pissing you off with unnecessary characters like the senator. Clearly, there was no need of a senator.The buildup was good though. Both sides of stories made sense and it would have been amazing if Bats and Supes had fought each other because of a mutual hatred for each other, instead being forced to fight each other. And the stupidest part of the whole movie was the reason they were fighting for. Like, seriously. The fight would have been unnecessary if they could've just talked, or rather if Supes could just have fought off the thugs that had kidnapped her mother. I mean seriously, if Bats can fight and kill thugs, why can't Supes? 2) The whole 'Bats is killing people thing'. No. Just plain no. That's one of his quality that distinguishes him from other superheroes. I was pretty shocked seeing Bats use a gun, let alone killing thugs. And what was with the bat engraving on the chests of various thugs? And did he actually come to the prison where they were holding Lex to engrave a bat on his chest? Seriously? 3) The 'Villain'. The single most important factor that makes Marvel movies so successful is their villains. The point is that these villains always have their minions who fight along with them. This keeps the heroes engaged and the audience enjoys the fight sequences. It was pretty dull in this case. Bats was not fighting Doomsday. Superman and Wonder Woman were just taking turns to get squashed. WW had amazing fight sequences though. But overall, it was pretty dull and kind of short. I'm also quite confused by the fact that WW was able to cut Doomsday's body parts even though, nothing penetrates a Kryptonian instead kryptonite itself. So basically, Supes could've taken WW's sword and stabbed Doomsday with it, and he wouldn't have to die then. (Yes, Superman dies at the end of the fight.) 4) The 'Batman vs Superman fight'. I was so excited to see this, but as soon as Supes pushes Bats to the ground, it was game over for me. I mean, he destroyed several guns with his laser and in the meantime, Bats could only manage to get back to his feat. It was basically, "you hit me and I will watch and then I will hit you, and you watch" kind of stuff. And the thing is, Bats just ripes (you got the word) Supes throughout the whole fight. Like absolutely destroys him. This sequence was also very short in my opinion and kind of forced as I've stated above.
Overall, 6.5/10 from me. Only because the cast was up to the mark and the set up for the future movies was good and because I'm a little biased towards Batman.
I sincerely hope that the future DC movies are better than this and do live up to the hype.
