Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice

How would the world react to an alien being, seemingly invulnerable, suddenly living among us? 18 months have passed since that fateful ending to Man of Steel. The world has, to a certain extent, grown used to sharing the planet with Superman, but doubts still remain over his true intentions and no one is more suspicious than Batman (played expertly by Ben Affleck). He has no trust at all in mankind, so an alien has no chance. And he has a point. If Superman was to decide to fry us all he could without any resistance. It's a scary thought. What if Superman was to turn against the human race? What could we do? Well Lex Luthor (perhaps the most irritating character ever portrayed in a film) has a plan but that plan involves turning the already fearful and suspicious Batman further against the man in blue by manipulating the world around them. He brings them together, sets things in motion, and ultimately forces the two protagonists into a fight to the death. Black v Blue, Man v God as Lex puts it. It's a subtle take on our own real-world conflicts and it works very well. The reason for the end of the fight is a little questionable, but I can let that slide. Wonder Woman is, of course, introduced in this film as are several of the other characters from the DC universe. Aquaman (thankfully not the same as the one portrayed in Entourage), Cyborg and Flash all make brief appearances setting the tone for the next film. It's well done and doesn't appear forced at all. Henry Caville does another excellent turn as the conflicted, confused and quite often misunderstood Superman. He doesn't have many lines in this film with a count of just 42 so he can mostly be seen using facial expressions instead but he's more of a supporting character in this film with Batman taking most of the limelight this time around. But it's still an excellent performance that sees him go from the persecuted to worshiped as the film goes on with convincing turns at each step. All in all, if you're looking for something to sink your teeth in to, something that offers the escapism of a superhero movie but that also throws your way a more meaningful and thought-provoking spectacle than just two men hitting each other then I cannot recommend this film highly enough. Yes, there is violence aplenty but it's all there for a reason that the other superhero movies don't give you. This is dark, menacing, expertly written and directed and should not be missed.

Insane story, mad graphics, exciting action packed and well directed.

Wow! Not what I was expecting. After all the negative reviews I was expecting something cliche'd that made no sense. And with characters who were not engaging and seemed to have no to little reason for their actions. I think it was the complete opposite. And even when it got to the over the top actions scenes at the end I felt there was justification and reason for it. The cinematography was very good, the whole feel and look of the film was very high quality. It lacked the camp, childish and goofy feel of the Marvel films. It was not as dark and realistic as Dark Knight, but somewhere in between this and the Marvel films. I actually preferred the style to the Marvel movies. It asked big questions that would be asked in real life if we did have a super human being like Superman. I thought the plot was good, it was quite philisophical and a lot smarter than most marvel films. It was an ethical conundrum and batman is jaded and old. Very cool film! Totally immersive.

If you have already decided that you are not going to like a film before you watch it, then why bother to watch it? Too many of the sniffy, nit-picky reviewers here had clearly approached this film in that way rather than watching it for what it is. I thought the actors who played the main characters were excellent. Batman is meant to be a brooding, dark person of few words and I thought Ben Affleck did a good job, this is not Lego Batman, but serious crime-fighting stuff. I also thought Zack Synder did a superb job of what must have been a difficult and technically complex film to realise. The set-piece fights look awesome. The music also deserves a mention, it was just right for the film and also very moody or uplifting as required, I think I could happily listen to this as a soundtrack alone. Avast ye, Here Be Spoilers! I think that some people decided not to like this film because at times it seems critical of superheroes and, of course, it pits Batman against Superman. When Lex Luthor blows up the Capitol and leaves Superman standing in the inferno, at first I thought, "Oh no, I hate this, everyone is going to blame Superman" but, although some did, the consequences were well handled and thought-provoking, it was a great scene. A highly entertaining movie and a nice introduction to Wonder Woman. I have not seen the Wonder Woman film at the time of writing this. When I saw the early promos, I was not sure about Gal Gadot in the role. Now I am convinced! At the end when they fight the Krypton Creature, she holds her own very well with some great fight shots. I also look forward to Justice League.

Spannend und cool

Great
