A Stylized Visual Spectacle which Stands Out in the Genre

Rating: 10/10 (28 March 2016)

Minor Spoilers!
I thoroughly enjoyed this movie and liked it for the very reasons that the critics disliked it!
BvS tells the story of superheroes in a different way than most others in the genre. This style isn't like the typical chapter-oriented type where one chapter follows another in a linear fashion. Instead, BvS tells multiple stories at the same time while adding something to each story throughout the movie. The multiple stories then converge into the finale which was a treat to watch in action and story.
I get how there can be a disconnect as most movies cover one chapter before moving on and leaving it behind; but BvS keeps everything going at the same time which juggles multiple plot points to reach the finale. This style is common in many philosophy and religious books which is why I enjoyed it thoroughly for being different!
I also didn't think the criticisms were negative points in the movie. For instance, people didn't like Lex Luthor as he was a little eccentric but considering this character, he is in his early years still with hair which was a different Luthor. I know that eventually he becomes a cold and calculating villain later on but perhaps this is more of a reflection of his mad genius before he becomes the Lex Luthor we all know (a friend told me this is how it is in the early comics but I myself haven't verified this fact). I at least know from Smallville that Lex Luthor had many eccentricities and was a different character but then later becomes a psychotic and ruthless villain.
I also didn't mind how a lot was 'crammed' into this movie. As we know from Marvel movies, Thanos in one movie simply sits on his throne and then he gets up and picks up the gauntlet in another movie. The increased content provides the opportunity to tell much more interesting stories in the near future rather than drag out things which eventually never get answered (remember the TV show Lost, while it was great, many things were so slowly paced that they weren't really addressed!).
I am also a fan of the highly stylized visuals that Snyder brings. The cackling sound of Superman coming from the distance makes it seem even more cool than the best professional wrestling entrance in history! I have never seen Superman in such a light where each one of his abilities were given the proper treatment he deserves (also the cool glowing effect in the eyes!). These subtle effects really flesh out the heroes as with the ground dirt rising when Superman is about to fly and the demon-like ambiance of Batman when he's around as well as the symbols on Wonder Woman.
I thought the fights were truly awesome as well where Batman does seem like truly Batman, a superhero who shows the pinnacle of what a human being can do. I admire these heroes and I look forward to seeing them again.
I don't consider myself a DC fan. I consume both Marvel and DC as I wish to enjoy a variety in the genres I like (in Marvel I enjoy Xmen (particularly Cyclops if he was done well!), Thor, Ant-man, Spiderman, and many more!). Hey, if we lost one of the two, we wouldn't have as many Superhero movies which is not such a good thing. Instead, I appreciate the high quality variety we have and I hope others do as well!
Cheers!
