Good movie, entertaining, but...

Rating: 7/10 (31 March 2016)

It is a very good film, especially from a special effects, musical and artistic perspective. The actors are excellent, the universe is very grim and the director captured the dark side of batman very well. Batman kills people (not a spoiler don't worry) as does superman which is rather surprising as it goes against the traditional batman style. The negatives are rather small, the film is long (I don't mind that) but it needs to be longer, one feels as if the story line is rushed at times, there are too many subplots to fit in, clearly this film is preparing us for others. The director really likes to link Superman to Jesus Christ, with many visual and audio references during the film, which can be slightly offensive and inappropriate, it would have been better to compare him to a Greek mythological god, but the director did a good job at it from a purely artistic perspective.
What this movie excels at is that you can just sit back and enjoy a very pleasant visual treat with an excellent soundtrack. It entertains, which is what a movie should do.
