What were they thinking???

Rating: 6/10 (1 March 2014)

I actually debated a while before rating this movie even a six. I always knew Snyder had an over-the-top style with his directing, but this went miles and miles over the proverbial top. The total and utter carnage of this movie will make you feel like road kill when its all said and done. I just wish Costner and Crowe hadn't been associated with a film like this one. It was a total waste of their acting prowess. All Snyder seemed to worry about was how to "up" his next explosion and/or fighting sequence. I kept thinking, by the end of the movie, what did Superman actually "save" (and not destroy)?? Amy Adams character might as well have been deleted from the movie altogether. She served, through poor screen writing and directing, no purpose whatsoever. I don't worry about Affleck playing Batman in the next installment. I worry about Snyder directing it again. I think he needs to take a lesson from Superman and fly away.
