It's battered you with so much blatantly unnecessary filler and otherwise dull trite that even when the two eponymous heroes have their face-off, it bitterly disappoints.

Rating: 4/10 (19 November 2017)

'Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice' is a long, tiresome and tedious mess of a film that's almost impressively incoherent, especially when it comes to its tenuous character motivations and appallingly flimsy narrative structure, and brazenly boring, an issue that has nothing to do with the flick's tone as some have suggested (though it is, at times, a bit dour); the only somewhat entertaining sequence that comes to mind is one that involves Batman beating down a room of thugs at the start of the third act, but by that point the flick has battered you with so much dull exposition and blatantly unnecessary filler that you aren't engaged enough to properly enjoy it and, while the plot then proceeds to plummet into the absurd, visually-confusing trite known as its finale, more or less every other scene feels like it's running on a treadmill and very little of consequence occurs during the insanely long run-time, meaning that you're just sat back in an almost comatose state while you watch seemingly every other character, aside from the two eponymous heroes (though one gets much more screen-time than the other), go about their irrelevant business until the action finally kicks off and proceeds to bitterly disappoint. 4/10
