Big, Bold, and Powerful! Welcome to the DC Cinematic Universe!

Rating: 9/10 (26 March 2016)

While a bit of a mess in the first act, the story threads all tie together at the beginning of the third act. This movie is big, bold, and powerful, much like it's titular heroes. It takes a serious look at how the world would deal with having an alien "god" walking among us, while at the same time sewing the seeds for the Justice League movie. Where the story lacked (just a bit) the stellar performances made up for it. Every member of the cast is 100% devoted to Zack Snyder's cause and they all performed wonderfully. As others have said, Ben Affleck is the definitive Batman AND Bruce Wayne. We've never seen, in the cinematic realm, an actor get both characters so right. Henry Cavill plays a fantastic Superman once again. This time dealing with the question, "does the world need a Superman?" Gal Gadot IS Wonder Woman. She was born to play the part. She's not in the movie for long, but she creates a lasting impression and leaves you wanting to watch her stand alone movie right now!
The movie isn't without flaws, but do yourself a favor, ignore the Tomatometer, and go experience this movie. That's what it is, it's more than just a movie, it's a real cinematic experience, and a good one at that. I have seen it twice and I can't wait to see it again! Welcome to the DC Cinematic Universe! Bring on the Justice League!
