Epic & Realistic Superhero Tale w The Best Collection of DC Characters Ever On Film

Rating: 8/10 (21 April 2019)

** I am reviewing the Ultimate Edition BluRay with Additional Scenes **
I love this movie. It probably should be rated R - it's, by far, the most violent of DC comic films. Batman returns to his 'pre-WWII' form by using guns to shoot (and kill) many people throughout the 160+ minutes. Amy Adams is still great as Lois Lane. I find the word 'Epic' to be overused this decade, but there is no other way to describe the 'Batman v Superman' and 'Batman & Superman & Wonder Woman v Doomsday' fight scenes. And, speaking of Wonder Woman, best casting decision ever made in a superhero franchise.
Although this is a sequel, it plays like a stand-alone film (especially the Ultimate Edition). People are emotional about Superheros and Comic Book Characters - I feel that explains the current 6.5 composite IMDB score. In the future, this number will rise. This film will hold up over time.
