Some nice visuals, but ultimately a sh*tfest.

I'm not going to blow your mind with any statements that hasn't already been said countless times over.
How many times on film do we really need to seen the Wayne parents get shot? How many time do we need to see young Bruce fall into the bat hole? I know that stuff was just opening credits, but it totally sets the vibe that Snyder is gonna be wasting your time with useless stuff.
Somehow, the film was pondering and plodding, while at the same time had too much stuff going on. How does do you even achieve a contradiction like that? I truly felt that they'd could've easily eliminated Lois Lane, Holly Hunter, Superman's mom, the handicapped guy, and Larry Fishburne from this movie, and the core story would've remained intact, and in fact would've allowed them to flesh out the main 3 characters; Supe, Batman and Wonderwoman. There's no reason this movie needed to be 2 1/2 hours long.... More is sometimes less. Remove those ancillary character, tighten up all the remaining sequences in editing, and add some motivation to the leads, and the movie would've been back on track.
Prior to seeing the film, i thought it was ridiculous that some people were saying Wonder Woman was the best thing about it... but now i sorta agree. At least she was interesting to look at, and while we don't really know her motivations either (at least nothing i picked up on), at least she gives the vibes that she's mysterious and perhaps has some type agenda.
The dream parts... I didn't mind, and in fact, those were probably my favorite parts of the movie, which is concerning in and of itself because they don't further along the plot. It just indicates to me that I welcomed a reprieve from the main story by looking at mindless eye candy.
The climax fight, i was literally so uninterested, i was surfing on my phone (there weren't any people in the theater to have reproached me). I guess it really does matter to have some type of story.
