Had everything I expected and more, don't believe the hate train.

Rating: 10/10 (14 April 2016)

The film is amazing by my definition, you get to see what the film name is about - "Batman v Superman" and it also lives up to the little text at the bottom, "Dawn of Justice". Maybe not the most fun for children because of its dark themes, but for the usual person who likes a film that takes itself seriously - I'm sure you'll enjoy it too.
Many of the reviews from critics don't seem to make sense, they base there reviews on what the film could have been instead of the masterpiece it is. They criticize it for being "humorless" as if that's what the trailers led anyone to believe; so why would that be a factor, they criticize it for its lack of plot and at the same time also for showing Bruce Wayne's parents get shot in another film (as if everyone walking into the theater knows Batman's backstory) and surprisingly also for its "over complicated plot". The plot is if anything fast paced but lacks nothing or is over complicated, there are 3 characters that the plot follows, Superman, Batman and Lex Luthor - the film skips between them which critics can apparently not comprehend.
Some things that critics and idiots have misunderstood: 1. Batman does not hate Superman because he destroyed his building, he hates him because he saw all the damage and death he and Zod caused. Batman see's Superman as just an alien that fought of evil aliens, who could also decide to destroy the world if he wanted to.
2. The scene where the court bombing takes place, Superman in this universe is not as overpowered as in the comics and cartoons... he has learnt to control his super hearing so that he only focuses on what he wants to. He was not ready to deal with a threat, he was focusing on the hearing. By the time he realized what was about to happen, it was too late, he is not fast enough save everyone before the bomb explosion hits everyone.
3. Lex Luthor hates Superman because he was most likely abused by his father, and he has always seen those with power abuse them. He and Bruce Wayne share almost the same hatred for Superman... his motivation are made clear in the film, but critics don't see them for whatever reasons.
4. Batman DOES NOT choose to spare Superman's life because their mothers share the same name. Batman stops because he understands that Superman is not just an alien with the power to destroy everything... he's a person with a family, emotions and morals - and when a man about to die asks you to save their mother, that's got to make you rethink if he really is a threat or not.
