Greatest gladiator match delivers!

Rating: 10/10 (5 April 2016)

Batman v superman dawn of justice is a film that delivers in superhero action the only way we all expect a Zack Snyder directed film to do so...epically. Ben Affleck is the best Batman we've ever seen on screen, brooding and violent, yet you feel his pain and understand his purpose. Henry Cavill is back as Superman and elevates his performance from Man of Steel. Gal Gadot is stunning as Wonder Woman. Gadot's take on the most recognizable female heroine is terrific and well received. Amy Adams did a great job as Lois Lane and is an unsung hero in the epic climax.Jesse Eisenberg gives us a completely different take on Lex Luthor that is believable and complimentary to the protagonists of the film. The supporting cast led by Lawrence Fishburn as Perry White help connect the dots on a complex story that goes beyond the realm of a typical comic book movie. All in all this film is terrific yet undeniably divisive. Perhaps the expectation of seeing a battle between the two most important characters in the comic book world surprised those who not only got the epic fight but were treated to a much deeper plot and a well placed introduction of other future Justice League characters. Great film that challenges the way comic book movies could or should be made moving forward. The majority of critics are dead wrong, Batman v Superman is excellence yet to be appreciated but ready to be explored.
