This Movie is AWESOME!

Rating: 10/10 (25 March 2016)

First off, I want to state that I am by no means a film critic. I am simply a massive comic book and superhero fan. I love both DC and Marvel, and I am not just a DC fanboy. I also understand critics having problems with this movie. The plot does seem a bit jumbled at points, jumping back and forth between several different things. However, if you are a casual movie fan that loves superheroes, this is the movie we've been waiting for.
Ben Affleck is the best Batman I've ever seen on screen. I was not one of the initial haters, and I actually went into the film with high hopes for him. I was not disappointed. He exceeded my expectations. I will not give any spoilers, but he actually feels like a detective in this movie. His fight scenes are awesome. Zach Snyder truly does know how to film action. The batmobile and the batplane are also very cool. Henry Cavill returns as Superman. Now, I also loved Man of Steel. I think Superman is about as good as he was in Man of Steel. He does have a bit more emotional heft in this film, though. Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman is one of the best things about this movie. She is strong, charming, and very powerful. Her entrance will have even the biggest skeptics cheering.
One of the biggest worries for this film was Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor. I loved his character. His voice and gestures can get a bit annoying at times, but he is actually very creepy and I found his attitude to be hilarious. His personality contrasts well with the overall darker theme of the film. The supporting cast of Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne, Holly Hunter, and Jeremy Irons all give great performances. The action is fantastic, and the fight scenes seem to have been pulled right from the comic books. This movie is not all action, and it pulls off non-action scenes quite well. I personally have never understood the hate for Zach Snyder. I loved Man of Steel, I really enjoyed Watchmen, and now I loved Batman v Superman.
One complaint I do have are the Justice League setup cameos. There is one that works really well, but the others seem very lazy and shoehorned into the movie. Besides that, I had a blast with this movie and I can't wait to see it again. I urge you not to listen to the critics, and just to go see the movie for yourself and form your own opinion. Because I was starting to get worried before I saw it, but actually seeing the movie completely changed my mind. 10/10 for me!
Oh yeah, and for the people saying that Batman shoots and murders people: it's not really like that. You'll see it for yourself when you see the movie, but don't worry! This movie makes me so excited for the future of the DC Cinematic Universe!
