Really enjoyed this movie

Rating: 8/10 (9 April 2016)

OK, first, I can't speak to the comic book fans and their issues with this movie, but I personally liked this movie a lot. While there was a lot going on, I think the only thing that was hard for me to take was the level of hate Batman has for Superman. I know the dreamscapes were supposed to help, but they didn't. On he other hand, this was a fine movie for the times. The public turning on Superman after he saves Earth, and an older Batman is feeling frustrated that his city is still a mess "pull one dandelion, another grows" helps explain the tone of the movie. Ben Affleck was great as Batman. I especially liked his 'detective/inventor side'- more than we seen in the more recent Batman movies. Additionally, I liked the new take on Lex Luther. I think people wanting traditional take on the characters of this movie may struggle. I liked them. Finally, Wonder Woman was a nice addition. The action scenes were fantastic. While I agree it had a lot going on, overall most worked. I give this a solid 'B'.
