MY REVIEW
Although the m0vie had its flaws and the critics were right in a way, its an 8/10 for me. To me the m0vie went too fast paced, no character m0tivati0n, no coherent plot and no straight forward story, in short no story. I couldn't feel for the characters that is to say it had no heart. Its m0re like a trailer for Justice league than a film. The film had no central plot or character. It didn't make us understand if the m0vie was an ensemble m0vie or a character based m0vie. I didn't feel or kn0w who the major characters were. Superman? Batman? Lois lane? Lex luthor? The m0vie just went zig zag but all in all its a g0od m0vie with a storytelling capability that wasn't utilised. Its like the scriptwriter wrote the script for an impr0mptu test or exam. The fault was m0re in the script and editing than in the directi0n but a little bit on the directi0n. For an RT rating, i'll give it a 65% not a 28% it currently is. To me the critics qualms with the film was little m0re than no hum0r or joy but heart and m0tivati0n. Civil war would be m0re better. Am a fan of DC but truth be told.

Finally got the time to go watch BvS yesterday and it was Awesome. A much much better movie than Man of Steel. Am not gonna go into the positives/negatives coz am just not interested. But BvS is definitely a movie worth reaching the $1 billion mark.



Now i just cant wait for Justice League next year......
Awesome.......

Hey guys, this fight is getting too serious ooo. I beg all of una wey dey fight to stop it na. I actually support you both. The fact is that about 40-65% of the total current gross of BvS were from pre-ordered tickets. The rest of the grosses came from on-the-spot ticket purchases. Parrotibaba and Next2Breeze are both correct. Oya, both of you should hug and end your online fracas before it becomes Parrotibaba v Next2Breeze: Dawn of the Internet JUSTICE!.

I already said it b4 that relying on box office numbers to judge a movie is flawed thinking!! A movie can make as much money as it wants. What matters most is what you see with ur own two eyes when u actually see the movie.

Gravity(Sandra Bullock) made mo' money than Man of Steel. And even a 10 yr old would know dat Man of Steel for all its flaws was a much better movie than Gravity in so many aspects...

The success of a movie isn't based solely on its box office numbers....

Things I loved

-Ben Affleck killed it. Admit it, we were all wrong. The chemistry he had with Alfred was on point. Wish Alfred got more scenes. Also wth happened to Lucius Fox? He just disappeared from the planet, they didn't even mention him in the movie. Weird. Morgan Freeman must be pissed. This ninja Punisher style Batman has the best action scenes hands down of any onscreen bat, Bale included. The best was the Martha Kent rescue. My favourite scene in the entire movie was the final fight with Doomsday when Superman & Wonder Woman are giving it to the ugly mofo then Batman looks at the level of these guys and decides they're out of his league. My guy just shifted back and tried not to die. Then when it was looking like Supes/WW were wondering where is this useless Batman sef?, he tosses a grenade and gives them that look like, omo I try abi? Hilarious


-Wonder Woman. She should have gotten more screen time. Everyone is raving about her performance but she was barely there. The little we got was cool tho. I love her accent.

-Batman v Superman fight: I don't like it took so long or that it was so short but boy was this awesome. This is what I paid money for


What I Hated


-What does Lex really want? They never explained his reasoning. The characterisation made him look like a madman, but he's not like Joker/madman, he's Lex, with a plan. Seriously disappointed. At times it felt like I was watching a poor imitation of a hybrid Riddler/Joker. I don't understand how Lex got this alien ship technology info on meta humans and suddenly has the landline of Darkseid. His plan makes no sense because we don't understand his motivations - blow up the Senate building and kill his assistant? Why? Kill superman? Why? Why did he even use his DNA when it could be tracked back to him. Also how on earth will the Capitol of all places get blown up and the only consequence is "Superman is sad"? This is something that should have more impact than 9/11

-So Superman had to die, because of course it's Doomsday and he always kills Superman, so he can rise like Jesus Christ. Did you notice how the movie was just forcing the whole Jesus thingy? The statues, the blood, the worship, the followers, the betrayal....... It's not by force Hollywood, it's not by force

-The Spear, the bloody Spear. How did Lois know the importance of the Spear? It was so funny, she needs it, then she doesn't need it again and throws it away, then she needs it again? And Supes and Batman just left it lying around conveniently? Hmm
Also why didn't Superman give Wonder Woman the Spear to kill Doomsday with when she had showed she was as strong as him and could do the job, when he knew it would kill him, abi he just wanted to die by force?

-Batman kills without mercy, Punisher style, he even wanted to kill Superman , nawa oo. What's the purpose of the branding of criminals, don't understand it. Then Bats changes his entire mind cos he finds out Supes has a mother and his own mother was killed in slow motion when he was little so he knows what it feels like to lose your mother and the mother's name is even Martha sef wow his own mother's name was Martha too wow this must be a sign from God they're meant to be best friends Argggh. His graveside sadness was just fake as well, I mean you wanted to kill this guy 30 minutes ago
The way Batman was brutal they'd better show he's killed all his villains including Joker, that's why he has no one left to fight except Supes or else...

-The dream. That came out of nowhere, and went nowhere. It served no function. Did I miss the part where Flash has a new superpower. So speed force can let you enter people's dreams now. I think I was the only one in my theatre that knew it was Flash, everyone else was like who is that, where did he go?

-Justice League was founded by email while Bats and WW were suited up waiting to bring down Doomsday. Ok . There was no need for that, they should have put it as a post credits scene

Rapmike, you rang...

rapmike:
I wanted your opinion about what I wrote.

rapmike:
Personally I take the critic reviews and sites seriously anymore still the time of Deadpool(honestly the way they hyped the movie, one would think it was the next best thing). Mind you, Deadpool is actually good, not just up to the hype it was given.

In all honesty, I think the main problem people will have with BvS will be the story which most people who don't know Batman indepth would find hard to get. If the story and the timeline was understood better, then people will have few qualms with the portrayal of Lex among other things.

Last of all, I feel the addition of flash and Aquaman in cameos were unnecessary. Simply fanboyism there.

I agree with you for the most part. Deadpool was fun, most people didn't expect it to be any good and it surprised them. Think that's what caused the hype, which I think also think is deserved

You're right about the story. If they had spent more time on Lex and cut out the unnecessary stuff it would have been much better

cao:
I can see your point, some choices they used to tell the story were flawed. I've already talked about how I feel about The Flash and their use of the AU (alternative universe for those who might still be wondering), even though I actually understood the bit, it still annoyed me 'cause I knew a lot of folks wouldn't since it was never explored in MoS. I think they kinda forgot this was supposed to be a sequel to MoS. I see they tried to make Alexander his own man, but the fact they were still portraying him as Lex (his father), while he kept mentioning his father didn't help much, it just confused us more...or annoyed folks who just thought he was Lex.

In the case of Deadpool, I think fans were just happy to get an actual accurate portrayal of The Merc with the Mouth, after Wolverine Origins gave us that odd ass balls adaptation...the fact that I practically had the same feeling when I played the Deadpool game on my PS3, even though it's not the greatest game, it sure as hell was entertaining & an accurate portrayal of Deadpool...same with the film - it's a good film, but not the best thing since sliced bread. I'd still gladly watch it again.

TonySpike:
Talking about box office numbers, BVS should earning a worldwide gross of over $700 million by the end of this weekend. The gross is moving slowly though, still hoping that it'll make roughly $1 billion eventually..

rapmike:
The hype on Deadpool eh, it disappointed me greatly. Funny enough, when I watched it a third time, I then realized that it was good.

SIRcumalot:
you saw it three times
have only seen it the one

if BvS is getting this much hate I wonder what will happen to suicide squad I couldn't even get myself excited for than one.

AdeLaNa1:
If u've watched Batman: Assault on Arkham, then u'd know that Suicide Squad is worth getting excited over...
