Better and more enjoyable than the Critics make it out to be

Rating: 8/10 (24 March 2016)

After hearing the first batch of reviews, my thoughts before going into the movie were down from a week ago. However, while watching the movie, I found myself looking forward to the next scene and I began to smile. The casting put to rest most doubts. Affleck does a great job of being an older but still brutal Batman while being a smooth Bruce Wayne. Gal Gadot will surprise most haters as she does a great job with the screen time she has. This set her up nicely for her solo film next year. Seeing Henry Cavill do another turn as Superman further proves he will be our Superman for this generation. Jesse Eisenberg may be the most divisive casting and you will either love him or hate him, probably won't be any in-between. I really enjoyed the story even if it did jump around from character to character a few times that took you out of the moment. That might be my biggest issue with the film. If you are a fan of the comics, you will notice several Easter Eggs that were welcomed. If you are going into this expecting the Avengers, don't. DC is starting something special and are taking some big risks with this movie. Sometimes by taking big risks you get big rewards. Time will tell. Go see the movie and form your own opinion. Don't rely on critics to tell you how a movie is.
