Disappointing

Rating: 5/10 (28 March 2016)

The film really didn't live up to the hype. Ben Affleck is a decent Batman, but I expected much more since he singed a multi-film deal with Warner. Henry Cavill is good as always, and you can expect that from him being Superman, he's really consistent there. Jesse Eisenberg did some good acting, but that just wasn't Lex Luthor. It seemed more like some Joker ripoff. Gal Gadot did the macho acting here. But, if in a film called 'Batman vs Superman' the thing that's the coolest is Wonder Woman, I think you have a problem there, Zack... The only aspect of the film that can be really praised is music, but that's Hans Zimmer anyway, so you can expect that. Film doesn't make sense in various ways, like the desert scene (Superman fires lasers, not bullets, duh) or the Knightmare (how the f*ck did Darkseid get there) and immediately after that, a futuristic Flash tells some gibberish to Bruce, not Batman (comic lovers, correct me if Flash really knows Batman's identity) also, Superman should be omnipresent one here, but it seems like that title belongs to Lois Lane, that girl is going places... The Doomsday part is really not needed, and somehow feels forced into the film, like the producers actually realized that they made a horrible battle between two main characters, and they tried to make up for it with a bag CGI-ed monster. The ending is really cringe worthy, with that cliché ring scene or that ethically wrong one liners (I'm sure that an average person can make up something better that 'The darkness is coming' or 'We must unite', I mean, really?) That final scene with Lex Luthor made me feel embarrassed, like it was me who made it. Lex Luthor, in this movie is, a bad Joker ripoff with autism. Batman is a maniacal mountain of muscle, and Superman is a teenager who doesn't know what to do with his life, and at the end he goes 'YOLO'. So, basically we got a two and a half hour long Justice League trailer, and if you really love trailers, watch the one for Suicide Squad.
