a bad convoluted mess that's caught in no man's land.

Rating: Null/10 (23 March 2016)

Comparing it to no other film, on its own "merits" BvS is just awful. It's poorly written and cheesy with the worst villains since Batman & Robin or Punisher War Zone. Besides delivering shallow supporting characters, they managed to make Superman a complete douchebag and Batman/Bruce Wayne a dull one note clichÃ©. THAT is why true fans should be angry and shouldn't be rushing to defend a terrible movie just because it features characters they liked before they saw what hit the screen.
This offers nothing new in any way, shape or form. It's a convoluted mess that's caught in no man's land. It actually takes itself too seriously yet offers ridiculous action (ridiculous as in dumb, not as in wild or fun) and even more ridiculous characters. It wants to be taken seriously but functions in bizarre surroundings with a foolish plot. Good movies work because they evolve characters, tell a smart story and ground a concept but still deliver the action. This movie tries to take a similar approach but it simply can't stand on its own as a film. Does silly, wild but dumb appeal to even the youngest crowds? Maybe it does but the rest of us want way more in our summer movies.
