holy cow. that was amazing. The boy and I loved it- he wants to go see it again. wife hated it- too long and boring and too much fighting and everyone was angry all the time...(granted she does not really enjoy going to the movies anyways and HATES long movies -it too years to get her to see a movie with me after Return of the King-) I could easily have hopped back in line and watched it again tonight. Loved WonderWoman in every scene she was in, and Ben was perfect as a 'pushed-to-far', tired Bruce Wayne. (And Superman is still perfect) I even liked the role Lois had here vs MoS. Jessie's Lex takes some getting used to but I still liked his insanity... and he knows who's coming.... so, BvS: big thumbs up (if you like the dark DC style that has become the norm since Nolan's Batverse... If you hated those and didn't feel MoS then there is no place for you in BvS...
I think if they cut 1/2 hr from BvS and that cut was everything about the nature of God/Superman- the movie would have been received much much better. This would have made a perfect Director's Cut, the running time will lose most everyone but the dedicated Batman/Superman fan that just wants another quick and easy superhero flick that we're used to seeing.
I think Snyder is great for DC- but he needs to be reigned in a bit on editing. Leave his "deep thoughts" for the home release and make a superhero movie for the average movie-goer that doesn't want their butt numbed by 2.5hrs in a theater cushion. That's not to say the Average movie goer isn't going to "get" a long, philosophical argument on manVsgod- but there is a lot of fun to be had just being a superhero movie that will attract a bigger crowd and make more $$$ so you can keep making superhero movies. Save "your" vision for an extended cut folks can watch from the comfort of their own homes (if they are so inclined)
And mild spoilers about the Justice League-
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXX
The intro videos to the rest if the JL were interesting... Flash was fun but Cyborg clip looked out of place- more like it should have been on Supergirl- and Aquaman looked like he was holding his breath.
