I wanted it to be great but sadly its just okay

Rating: 8/10 (23 March 2016)

First of all I have to write that I was a huge Man of Steel fan so I wanted BvS to be as good or even better! The movie has positives but also negatives and critics have been somewhat right on their reviews. From a fan point it has couple of truly great comicbook movie moments, looks great and action is very well shot. Sadly there is actually only a few action pieces in the movie considering its 2,5hour movie. The main fight between Batman and Superman is maybe 10mins if even that.
Casting wise they did a good job. Ben Affleck truly nails older battle weary Batman. Gadot is good Wonder Woman but she is on the screen so little that it could have been really anyone. Irons is great Alfred but Eisenbergs Luthor was... Well... different... Some people seem to hate him, so people seem to love him. I didn't really care much of him... Main problems with Lex are that his motivations and what drives him are never clear and people are left wondering why he did what he did.
The main problems of the movie are its focus and pacing. The first 90mins or so of the movie it keeps following 4-6 subplots at the same time and its jumping all over the place because of that. It can be tough to follow at the times. The world building for larger DCU is there and mostly it is done well with the exception of "dream sequences"... They are left way too vague and never talked again afterwards.
Also the ending is two edged sword. I personally felt that this was not the time or place for doomsday. I understand why they did it but in my opinion he was wasted here and he didn't seem like big thread enough to warrant the trinity nor the outcome where it all lead into.
Its worth seeing but sadly its not amazing...
