Good movie with flaws but not as bad as the critics put it

Rating: 8/10 (25 March 2016)

SPOILERS IN MY REVIEW!
Let's get one thing out of the way here. The movie isn't as bad as critics are saying. Its actually very entertaining and its a good movie. That being said, I am a DC fan but I'm also a realistic one and the movie has its flaws. Basically, Zack Snyder is a great visionary but I'll admit that his pacing is awkward and it really shows in this film. Its just has very bad and fast pacing. Additionally, this movie is clearly not for casual moviegoers. Its a film for a selected group of DC fans. This is both its pro and its con. Having DC fans as your niche audience obliviously only satisfies us. But with a big budget and grand movie universe plan, an expansion to wider audience is needed whether WB wants it this way or not. I am not saying to copy Marvel, what they have done is brilliant and it works for them. But WB needs to expand a bit more for a true achievement. On the other hand (and in my opinion), I do like that, while this movie throws a lot of detail and DC lore at you, it still makes you think after you leave the theater. Like what was Flash talking about? Why is Batman getting these nightmares? Is Darkseid truly the big bad of this universe? There is a lot to take in for this movie and I think it gets a bit more appreciated the more you see it. Again, its just the pacing. Its too damn quick. Some elements needed to be fleshed out.
In a way, I try to give WB the benefit of the doubt and I do kinda feel bad. I know they have a lot to catch up with and it sucks that they had to wait for Nolan to finish his Batman trilogy (relax reader, I love the Nolan movies). So I see where they were going with this. This movie is built as the foundation of what's to come. Great idea in my opinion. They just needed more story and development with that foundation. For me, it makes me curious and excited to see what's to come. I was sold on the foundation. Just not 100% on the movie itself.
In short, good movie, and the actors and actresses nailed their roles in my opinion. Ben Affleck is THE most accurate comic book Batman on film. the movie itself was just too dedicated to its foundation formula. And to the critics who are bashing on this movie. I get some of you for talking about the pacing and that this isn't for the casual audience. But to be condescending and so unprofessional in your articles is just uncalled for. If you give me a a valid and professional argument towards the flaws of this film. then I'll get it and mostly agree with you. But you critics lately (because its not only this film) have been very rude, insulting and 100% unprofessional in your articles as of late. Simply put, stop being jack offs for click bait. I've seen people who don't like the movie and are no where near as unprofessional as you.
