Everything Wrong with Batman vs Superman.


Yes, so the long awaited DC comic's epic bash of probably two of its greatest superheroes is finally out, and with the trailer, one just can't wait to see this "wonderful" movie . Everybody is very anxious to see their two greatest superheroes up against each other therefore we expected something really large, something that would take us by storm. We did'nt get that. Instead, We got nearly 3 hrs of nothing. Lets take a look.

#1. The really confusing story. Up until 30 mins into the movie, you might not understand a thing that goes on or how anything connects ro the other. It seems you are watching two different really boring movies. They start with the overseen scene of how Bruce Wayne's parents were killed, but we hear nothing from how superman came about. Next thing we see is Bruce Wayne all grown up and Afflecked while Superman is throwing people into building and destroying Wayne Towers. Then a whole lot of boring scenes that take practically the whole movie. Then Lex luthor comes in from nowhere to get Superman killed by Batman, then Doomsday... then how did General Zod come in, why did he not come back to life, did he turn to doomsday?

#2 The Casting. Here, My major problem is Jesse Eisenberg who plays the psychomaniac Lex luthor. I understand DC is trying to invent a better character or get a maniac villain. That is not good at all because even though Jesse is a great actor who pulled off the role, a bald, not creepy-in-that-way Lex is perfect. Let the Joker remain the DC maniac.

#3 The Awkwardnesses. A lot of questions came to my mind while i saw this  movie. How didnt the city people recognise Superman as Clark Kent. I mean, he just took off his glasses and styled his hair. What difference does that even make? He was in that courtroom with the Jennifer Aniston lookalike Senator and the whole press was there... apart from Clark Kent. Nobody suspected anything?!.
Why is Lois Lane everywhere?! Is it like her way of remaining relevant in the movie?
 Why did that Japanese attendant at Lex's house leave Bruce Wayne in that room even after suspecting he had something in mind?
 Why didnt the Senator take security precautions after clearly being threatened by Lex Luthor? Why is Lex Luthor made to look and seem  lex powerful than the normal lex.( Lol. You saw what i did there? Lex powerful) Why does he keep chasing that kryptonite thingy and how does the fight between Bat n Clark get him the Kryptonite thingy. Who recorded the video footages of everyother Superhero on Bruce Wayne's laptop? Or did Aquaman use a water proof selfie taking camera down there? When Superman died in the end and there are two coffins for him i.e one for CK and for Superman. I know the one for Clark Kent had his body in it, but what was in the other one?

There are more problems that need to be addressed and in as much as critics like us are giving the movie a low rating, The movie is still climbing cinema charts and Ben Affleck remains rich.
