"Greatest superhero movie ever" fan-boys need to calm down.

Rating: 5/10 (26 March 2016)

POTENTIAL SPOILERS AHEAD:
First of all it's important to say that I really liked Man of Steel. I own the DVD/Blu-Ray, thought the movie laid out the origin story really well and it is a movie that is on my list of movies that I can re-watch whenever, irregardless if I've seen it recently.
Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice will not join MoS on that "rewatchable" list.
First of all, the film spends way too much time on the origin story of Batman. I understand that the "Dark Knight" trilogy is different interpretation of the DC character, but did the filmmakers of DvS really think the audience would forget how Batman "came to be"? (after a bunch of Batman movies in 90s and the more recent Dark Knight trilogy) This film which was a continuation of the MoS story line, had way too many flashbacks and dream- sequences about Batman. The Batman origin story in this film seemed rushed, it was really repetitive and crammed into a plot where it never truly fit.
Second, I am not sure if Ben Affleck wasn't a good Batman or that he wasn't a good fit for this style of Batman. He certainly lacked the Bruce Wayne swagger of previous Batman films (which I always thought should be an essential part to the overall character) and the film never created a relationship with Gotham but rather just vaguely alluded to Batman's presence in Gotham.
Third, the film needed MORE Wonder Woman. BvS teased her character really well throughout the movie, and she was awesome to watch in one of the main action sequences. But where Batman's background was dull, overbearing and repetitive, Wonder Woman's was sparse and indistinct.
With regards to the action/fight sequences, I thought they were done pretty well. These were comparable to MoS, a lot of CGI, but they really showed off the talents/strengths of the super-characters.
Overall I rate this a 6.7, 6.8 or 6.9 (7 rounded up). The movie was "alright"; I will continue to watch the upcoming DC Universe films, but this film should not be quoted as "one of the greatest superhero movies of all time" as I believe MoS and/or any of the Dark Knight trilogy films were better.
