Better than expected but still not great!

Rating: 4/10 (26 March 2016)

This movie has moments of greatness but is largely just OK. I've never bought Cavill as Superman and Eisenbergs Luthor is painful to watch. Like Jar Jar painful. The first act is disjointed and overall the movie feels at least 30 minutes too long. That being said, it is rescued from being a bad movie by the best portrayal of Batman to date. The fact the batmobile and batwing have machine guns and most enemies don't seem to survive encountering the bat doesn't sit right at all but Afflecks performance is the Batman I've been waiting for. Gadots Wonder Woman is also a saving grace, people can complain about her look if they're that way inclined but her performance is great. All in all, not a bad start to the DCCU. Not great either.
