Darker and Thought Provoking

Rating: 9/10 (8 April 2016)

This is a great movie for the superhero genre.
If you thought the marvel universe movies have been vapid and gave you nothing, really, to care about you'll love this movie. If you liked Watchmen, you'll feel it's almost a spiritual sequel. if you hated Man of Steel for bad acting and horrible writing, this movie redeems it in so many way. It's grown up story telling. Not everything will be spelled out for you. You'll have to think about the characters and you'll need to pay attention.
You'll find no saccharine, harmless wise cracking here. There are no jokes about masturbation. It deals with real issues of super powered beings in the same realistic way that Watchmen dealt with them. It isn't easy. You won't come out of this thinking you can fly, pretending to shoot webs out of your wrists. It's not for kids, though they'll whoop along with you when Batman fights Superman.
In short, if you can stomach any of the Thor movies, if you loved age of ultron and regularly watch Agents of Shield or The Arrow/Flash/Supergirl TV shows - this movie is probably not for you.
