Good action / Poor story elements

Rating: 5/10 (26 March 2016)

Overall I enjoyed the action scenes in the movie. The plot lines for connecting superman and batman together were pretty good. I thought Ben and Jesse were really going to annoy me but I they did good. The roller coaster was fun but looking back on some plot elements there were a few things I really disliked.
Spoiler alert below
1. Why did Zack even add the scenes about batman's parents? We all know it more then any character in the movie. I think it would have been much better to explain Lex's hatred of superman or some of his back story.
2. The few scenes he did add about batman's parents I really disliked. His father tries to punch the guy with the gun? Really? This proves he is reckless, dumb and thoughtless...wow nice work Zack. This also just doesn't fit well with Nolan's trilogy and Ra's "failure to act" but that may be just cause I did like Nolan's trilogy
3. Lex's motivation was really just not explained. I know he is trying to lead us to believe Lex is jealous of Superman's strength but wow he really put a lot of time and effort on the line for that? I know he was trying to frame superman to get a military contract but come on. I'm not a superman fan at all but wasn't Lex a little smarter then this?
