Meh

Rating: 4/10 (30 March 2016)

Not as bad as some have made it out to be, but this film certainly has problems. I found it quite cerebral, but in a "trying too hard" sort of way. There are confusing and unnecessary scenes, particularly certain dream sequences that do little to enhance the plot, and the first hour moves very slowly. It does use this time to cover important plot points but it's delivered in a drab and dull manner for the most part.
Ben Affleck is excellent (possibly best batman ever?), as is Gal Gadot and most of the supporting cast, and I understand Henry Cavil is also in this movie, though he seems more like a CGI version of himself.
Despite being rated as PG-13, it's too subtle and high-minded for kids I suspect, and quite dark in places too. Still, it ends quite well (why couldn't it have been like that for the entire last hour!) and I don't hate it. It just wasn't all it could have been.
