It just wasn't very good

Rating: 3/10 (1 April 2016)

I am so disappointed by this film, even though my hopes were not high going in. I thought to myself before seeing it "how bad can it possibly be, It'll probably be dumb but at least the action should be fun". oh how wrong I was, this film is not fun at all, the action is some of the most boring and lifeless I have seen in a modern blockbuster film, it just was not engaging whatsoever and at times nearly incomprehensible.
What I enjoyed in the film starts and ends at the beginning, the film starts off pretty well we see Bruce's origin story once again, but thankfully it is short. followed by a bizarre dream sequence. We then see the destruction of Metropolis from Bruce's point of view. I enjoyed this scene quite a lot , it was fast, exciting and intense. Things sorely lacking from the rest of this film.
A major issue with the film is the pacing, it is all over the place, we jump from scene to scene at a break neck speed with little time to process any of what we have just seen. It feels like they packed three films into one and cut it down to 2.5 hours. none of the characters have time to develop, none of the themes have time to develop, it is just a complete mess from beginning to end.
