Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice
As an illegal alien in America, Superman's greatest adversary will always be Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
However, in this action movie it's a middle-aged man in a bat-suit.
While dealing with authorities over his mid-air clash with Zod, which razed Metropolis, Superman (Henry Cavill) now finds himself the target of a disgruntled billionaire (Ben Affleck) who moonlights as the heavily-armored hero: Batman.
Meanwhile, a maniacal mogul (Jesse Eisenberg) provokes the rivalry further by kidnapping Supe's mother (Diane Lane) and transfiguring Zod's corpse into a monster.
With more DC characters running around as well, this supplement to Man of Steel - and set- up for Justice League - is needlessly convoluted with subplots that service future sequels instead of the story at hand. The laughable dialogue, dreary aesthetic, and bloated Batman don't help this slapdash skirmish either.
Fortunately, if he is deported Superman can always emigrant to the Caribbean and become Super-Mon.
