After watching Batman Vs. Superman this week there were a couple of things on my mind. Batman will always be amazing and everything seemed shoehorned in.
Batman in the movie was probably the most interesting thing in the movie. It kept me really intrigued by his character. It isn’t the usual Batman we know, this Batman looks like he has went through a lot. He seems a more mature Batman. Kudos to Ben Affleck on delivering the performance as Batman. Every time that Batman was on screen it seemed such a more interesting scene. It felt more like a Batman movie than a Superman movie.
With the knowledge that the Justice League movie is happening, it really felt shoehorned in that they had references to the Justice League. It took away from the experience and felt like it didn’t really need to happen during the movie. Even the final ‘villain’ of the movie felt like he was just there because they thought it was cool.
Overall however, the movie was a good superhero action movie. I really enjoyed the darker tone of the DC universe compared to Marvel universe. However there were some things in the movie that felt like that did not need to be there.
