Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice- Well, it has been years of hatred towards this movie, as far back when the lead actors were revealed. On going jokes and mean internet comments galore. This movie is DC's way of catching up to the massive momentum Marvel has going for them in Hollywood.
Plot- Ok, there are like 5 plots going on at once in this movie. There's the Batman segment setting him up. Then the continuation of the "Man of Steel" following the huge battle in Metropolis. Followed by setting up Wonder Woman, and then there's the actual fight between Batman and Superman. Finally, the final plot the set up for the obvious Justice League movie in the future. Whew... Yeah, you really have no time to get any character development. Yes, its true we really don't need such a thing because we should all know these iconic characters already. Still, its important for a story telling point... this movie felt like I was on a roller coaster, and just zipping through it, no time to stop and really enjoy the good parts.
There are going to be many people eating crow about Ben Affleck playing Batman. Kevin Smith was right, Mr. Affleck was a great choice. Gal Gadot, also got tremendous flack for being cast as Wonder Woman, but she played a strong, enticing part... much like I would believe the real Wonder Woman would act. Then of course Henry Cavill, as Superman... still is a emotionless void. He could be replaced and I believe no one would notice honestly. Jesse Eisenberg, i wanted to reach into the screen and choke this moron... he was terrible...enough said.
Was it a great movie? It was good, but I was wishing it another movie most of the time.
Final Verdict- 5.5/10, Probably save your money on this one, or just go and watch the last 45 minutes of the movie.
Many more movie coming out this year, and Ill be there this time to review them all. This is Phil Goes to the Movies, so you don't have to.
