Yet another one, from Snyder, set to split views

Rating: 7/10 (26 March 2016)

Zack Snyder did again what he best does, intrigue moviegoers and critics, alike, into a never-ending war. The movie picks up from the penultimate of its predecessor, Man of Steel, and for most of its entire length, tries to build upon its prequel and setting up a platform for future DC films, compromising its own storyline in the process by giving it a little bit less attention than required. From the title, we'd get an impression of an epic narrative of a ideological and physical battle between Superman and Batman, and we do get to see them fight but only for 5% of the entire runtime of the movie, but it's worth it. The best part of the movie is Batman, played by Ben Affleck. It is a Batman we haven't seen previously on the big screen. He is battle-hardened and brutal to the wrong-doers. He believes that justice must be done, no matter if it includes killing. If you do bad, he is sure to brand you with a bat logo and snap your neck off. Henry Cavil does his job great, as Superman. Superman finds himself in a dilemma about what good is, exactly? What has he really achieved? Some see him as an harbinger of good, here to save them from calamities, while there are people who question his accountability and unlimited prowess, including Bruce Wayne. Wonderwoman (Gal Gadot) has a much bigger role than shown in the trailers and she looks really great in the outfit and in action (She even uses the lasso of truth, but not to its fullest). You may find Lex Luthor (Jesse Eisenberg) funny but me, personally, found it difficult to interpret his dialog. Over all, the movie is great, I liked it as much as my anticipation was and I look forward to Wonderwoman and the Justice League movies. TELL ME, WOULD YOU LIKE THIS MOVIE? YOU WILL.
