DC prevails over Marvel

Rating: 9/10 (25 March 2016)

I've seen every DC and Marvel Film on release date or pre-show at some of the best theaters around namely the largest IMAX 4K Screen in the state. I wait in line for hours at a time because my passion for film is unquenchable. When you see a spectacular film get mixed reviews, its time to take a stand. The pure awe of the soundtrack and score is enough to tower most Marvel movies, period. The imagery is of the highest quality, the difficult and challenging story angles were combined in such a visually skilled way by the director Zack Snyder. The massive characters of Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman brought to life by the cast in such a modern way. This movie will leave you in sheer astonishment as Wonder Woman is brought into action. Remember that Marvel movies are lighter in mood with arbitrary stories that end leaving you fully resolved. DC movies are edgy, somber, emotional and more realistic in nature with classic stories that end leaving your imagination engaged. As with all films, there are some flaws with Batman v Superman. But rather than talking about flaws, lets put DC movies in context with Marvel. Marvel movie character costume armor usually resembles foam or plastic and Marvel movie music is typically forgettable. DC movies mostly, and Batman v Superman is no exception, contain character armor that looks very real or metal-like and DC movies music is prominent and enduring. Marvel's original sound tracks don't get much attention, whereas DC movies original sound tracks are in the spotlight as they are always spectacular. Hans Zimmer and his team are hard to beat when it comes to original motion picture music. Music is half the movie, just ask the visually impaired. This is worth seeing in IMAX as the film makers make use of this enormous screen several times in the movie. Batman v Superman with its intrigue, controversy, and epic battle scene(s) is another monumental win over Marvel movies. Marvel movies have a special place in my heart but after seeing the latest round of X-Men movies done so well, I can't help but see how the other Marvel movies are now lacking in comparison. We are all living in a wonderful era of comic film adaptations which never disappoint. I enjoy watching Marvel and DC film makers battle for the top spot. We are all at a unique time in comic film history, lets all enjoy it while it lasts!
