The music nearly put me to sleep

Rating: Null/10 (27 March 2016)

I'll admit that somewhere in here is a good movie but in the end, it failed to deliver. I was happily amazed by Ben Afleck because I have been concerned he couldn't pull off Batman but he seemed to do just fine with the part. Jesse Eisenberg was also a treat to watch as Lex Luther and his performance was probably the best out of the bunch.
Now the bad. The music was so over the top and really out of place during most of the film that it became a distraction. The same music over and over and it just didn't do anything for the story except pull me away from what was happening on screen. This was clearly due to lack of dialogue but when the music completely over shadows the sounds of the action, it simply gets in the way. It was so intense during the action scenes that I almost fell asleep a couple of times.
Overall this is just an average film. Sure there was some great special effects but the story was told in a way that just didn't engaged me. I never felt connected during the two and half hours. I never found myself rooting for the heroes. In the end this movie is all about visuals and music. Reminded me of Fantasia where the point of the movie is the music but at least Fantasia knew what it was and connected the music to the visuals where here it felt completely out of place.
