Batman v Superman... The DC Film Curse Lives On...

Just got back from an employee screening of Batman v Superman... Don't worry I won't spoil it for those that want to see it. I will say my piece though. It was an incoherent mess. A solid 5/10. There is too much going on and the film fails to stay focused on one thing for too long. Ben Affleck and Gal Gadot do manage to put to rest the arguments of whether or not they'd be good as Batman and Wonder Woman. They were fantastic. It's Henry Cavill and Jesse Eisenberg who fail to perform. Cavill is still just as meh as he was in Man of Steel and Eisenberg is just as shitty as we all knew he would be. Gal Gadot absolutely steals the 3rd act. And special props to Jeremy Irons for his portray of Alfred. It was pretty good. It's just the story. It's horrible. And Doomsday... *shutters* But don't let me influence you. See for yourself. In my opinion it is shit. Which is extremely depressing because Batman is my 2nd favorite Superhero and I was really hoping this film would be better.

  • They do this to themselves. Warner Brothers hired -blam!-ing -blam!-ING -blam!-ing David S Goyer to write this script, and they insisted on shoving in Wonder Woman, The Death of Superman story, a bunch of Justice League advertising... They brought this on their own heads and if they even listened for a second to their audience they could have avoided pouring almost $1billion overall into a trainwreck of an attempt at a movie universe. Honestly as much as I'm a DC fanboy, this doesn't hurt me one bit. It does break my heart that batfleck, who is perfection, is going to be wasted on this, but I don't even feel bad about how this whole thing is going to crash and burn. As Alfred once said, "there's nothing worth saving here".
