Batman v Superman Dawn of justice
Batman v Superman: Dawn of justice is an epic superhero film industry of the latest style. This is a compliment if you prefer these films to be heavy, disorganized and gloomy, but a warning if you prefer color variation from movie to movie and scene to scene, and you have a weakness for storytelling that actually tells, you know, a story, rather than doing an inspired work occasionally but mostly just competent work to prepare the next chapter in a Marvel-style franchise
The story begins with another flashback of a young Bruce Wayne witnessing the murder of his parents by a robber wielding a gun, followed by a shocking parenthesis, his encounter with a flock of bats in a cave near the stately Wayne Manor. It was also co-written by Chris Terrio and David S. Gower ("Blade"," Dark City") and directed by Zack Snyder ("Man of Steel"," Sucker Punch " and others), this sequence initially plays like another visit to a dry well. But it makes sense when you get to the next scene, the "man of steel" confrontation between Superman (Henry Cavill) and General Zod (Michael Shannon) is recreated from the point of view of Bruce Wayne/Batman (Ben Affleck), who sees hundreds of members of his professional authorized "family" killed when Wayne Industries ' office in the capital was damaged in the Super Battle. (The sequence also portrays Wayne as a somewhat detached per cent who is ashamed to take the "family" of his work for granted-a thoughtful touch.)

This is the most touching and original sequence of the film, in large part because it required a constant complaint against the "man of steel"—that the supposed scouts from Krypton were cruelly oblivious to collateral damage—and adjusted, so that it looked like something the "man of Steel" was always supposed to do, the better to provide a strong and simple motivation for Bruce. Traumatized by a 9/11-style disaster that killed dozens of his employees, including the mother of a young girl, he channeled his anger and helplessness into a preemptive war against Superman, to be carried away by biomechanical armor and BAT technology fortified with Kryptonite. He sees Kal-El as an ignorant and negligent false god whose powers must be neutralized, lest humans become so comfortable worshiping" aliens " that they pave the way for conquest by more Zoids
I keep referring to the hooded hero as Bruce because, more than any image of Batman, "Batman v Superman" treats the Caped Crusader as a frightening and fantastic manifestation of an ordinary neurotic, practically a lycanthropic rodent monster that appears at night, summoned by the light of the monogrammed Moon. In comparison, Superman looks like a more balanced character: apart from the presence or absence of glasses or a robe and the pressures of maintaining his cover story (he is so busy with unauthorized investigation of Batman's awakening that he begins to spoil his usual duties on the planet), Clark Kent and Superman are basically the same man

The title promises an even distribution of screen time. But despite the presence of DC touchstone characters-including a small, psychotic, technological douche version of Lex Luthor (Jesse Eisenberg, fidgety and squeaky like Jeremy Davies); ageless Amazon warrior Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot); ace reporter and Superman Gal Pal Lois Lane (Amy Adams); Alfred Butler (Jeremy Irons); Daily Planet editor Perry White (Laurence Fishburne) and Ma Kent (Diane Lane)—this is finally an overpopulated Batman image it is overpopulated and awkwardly planned which relegates the man of steel to a glorified supporting role. (If industry reports are to be believed, this was a last-minute decision by Warner Brothers, which preferred Batman as a safe financial bet over the recently revitalized sobs.)

Unfortunately, the early promise of the script recedes as the film stalls. "Batman v Superman" is a disorganized, lead-footed movie that carries itself with unearned confidence; you see every card it's about to play ten minutes before the movie plays, but Snyder doesn't just slap every one on the table with a flair, he keeps pointing to it and telling you what rank and fit it is. Surely we would have predicted that the identical first names of Bruce's dead biological mother and Kal—El's adoptive mother-Martha-would eventually come into force, but the film is so worried that someone might not understand it that Thomas Wayne crook "Martha" with his dying breath, and then finds ways to continue repeating "Martha" for the next two hours, building towards a reanimation of the murder of Bruce's parents that will bring latecomers to speed
There are other frequent touches along these lines, including multiple voice—over confirmations that the characters are fighting in depopulated areas-a clumsy defensive blow against the "man of steel". Everything seems pointless when you realize how little effort was devoted to decorating the characters in the cast the size of Snyder's "Nashville", and none of them came to life as they did in the Batman pictures of Tim Burton, Christopher Nolan or even the Batman pictures of Joel Schumacher. Luther Eisenberg may have a wonderful third painting in the film gallery of lonely and haunted man-children (at a terrible moment, he rails against the "father's fist and atrocities"), but he mostly comes off as a 21st century programmer, and all the tics, threats and unwanted physical advances. Lois Lane from Adams was again reduced to a poker-faced damsel in distress. Alfred Jeremy Irons is not a patch on Michael Gove or Michael Caine. Gadot, a graceful beauty with a musical accent and a steely demeanor, is given less depth than a typical Bond girl. The film shows little interest in explaining or justifying complex subplots, and its transformations into franchise construction are often self-defeating. The most misleading is the dog's leg near the end: just when the story starts to build a steam head, he pauses to recite the DC heroes that we can expect to see in the first full-length Justice League movie

"Batman v Superman" is trying to compensate for these and other shortcomings by sheer size and scale. It's two and a half hours long, louder than an airstrip in O'hare, gimmicks up the "excitement" with crisp cam footage and hyper-cutting, and both metaphorically and literally dark images. Even the daylight scenes seem to take place at dusk, thanks to the way Snyder and his cinematographer Larry Fung bleed color and shroud the characters in smoke. The Kryptonian mutant Luthor The Doomsday mutant - spoiler warning not required; her presence was revealed in PR photos and promotional shots weeks ago—he's a generic hell monster, all Ruby muscles, spiky scales, and grudge-like teeth. Reports of the upcoming " R " - rated DVD release are not surprising: juicy stabbing movie, trademark Batarang, closing gunshots quarters, sadistic kidnapping scenes and torment, the overall tone of despair is urban thriller 101. The film is most effective when it directs expressive horror films by shooting action from confusing angles and letting blood seep out of strange nooks and crannies. When she borrows iconic designs and attitudes from her primary inspiration, Frank Miller's politically satirical, meticulously planned graphic novel The Dark Knight Returns, it's like a kid stumbling into daddy's shoes

There are some brilliantly realized moments, the acting is mostly strong despite the weak script (Affleck and Cavill are both great—Affleck unexpectedly so), and there is enough Legendary raw material that has sunk so deep into each scene that you can compile a classic in your mind if you feel good; but if they weren't, "Batman v Superman" would seem like a missed opportunity. Sometimes it can make you yearn for Christopher Nolan's tender touch. These last four words have never appeared side by side before. Life is funny that way
Fearing that Superman's actions are left unchecked, Batman takes on the man of steel, while the world wrestles with what kind of hero he really needs. With Batman and Superman fighting each other, a new threat, Doomsday, was created by Lex Luthor. It's up to Superman and Batman to put aside their differences along with Wonder Woman to stop Lex Luthor and Doomsday from destroying metropolis
Batman (Ben Affleck) and Superman (Henry Cavill) share the screen in the Warner Bros./DC Entertainment co-production conceived by David S. Goyer and Chris Terrio, and directed by Zack Snyder. Amy Adams and Diane Lane return as Lois Lane and Martha Kent, respectively
Critics ' consensus: Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice throttles a potentially powerful storyline and some of America's most iconic superheroes in a grim whirlwind of effects-driven action
Until a few hours ago I watched Batman v Superman: Dawn of justice, the kind of follow-up to Zack Snyder's 2013 man of steel. Produced by the same team that produced Man of steel featuring Christopher Nolan-the man who successfully rebooted and modernized the Batman franchise and made it difficult for anyone else to do another Batman movie without comparing it to his own. So it's probably safe to assume that Snyder has Nolan's blessings in some way or that Nolan likes what Snyder has in mind for not only Batman but Superman and the DC Universe

Even Zack Snyder, director of such films as 300 (2006), Watchmen (2009) and Sucker Punch (2011) films that are not like any other. Guardians was about superheroes who didn't have superpowers going through retirement moves until they found out they were being targeted. It's two hours and 42 minutes long. Based on the Frank Miller and Lynn Farley comic book series of the same name, Zack Snyder made a film that was visually unlike any other at the time but has since influenced every other action and comic film since. Sucker punch was about a young woman who is placed in a mental institution who then begins to have delusions and hallucinations as she begins to make her escape from the institution. It was an unusual film in many ways and it was difficult to admire it at times. So it's safe to say that Zack Snyder is not a traditional director or someone who does the usual films. Which to me is or was surprising to see that so many people were expecting Snyder to do a traditional take on Superman. I like a man of steel. It was raw, gritty and wasn't entirely about nostalgia or romance for the character nor was it set in a marvel-like universe where only superheroes are 'hurt' by the fights they have. The reality of the man of Steel was very much the reality of the guards. There is no romantic idea of a superhero being perfect and flawless or being completely noble and decisive. Nothing is black and white or easy. Superman is very much human. The man of Steel did not sit well with Superman fans, purists and critics were not over the moon about it either
So Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice where the events of Man of Steel took place 18 months ago and Bruce Wayne (Ben Affleck) after fighting as Batman in Gotham for 20 years discovers that an alien being who can destroy an entire city at Will has turned metropolis into a battlefield. On the other extreme is Lois Lane (Amy Adams) who while researching a story about an African warlord discovers that he was funded by someone in the United States. She is also friends with Superman / Clark Kent (Henry Cavill). And then there is Lex Luthor (Jesse Eisenberg) a young genius who inherits his father's enormous wealth and his companies and obviously has problems with abuse both mentally and physically from his father who in his disappointment with God for not saving him from his abuse planted his hatred of said God on Superman and decided to make an example of this alien that many people are now more
Let's start first with the fact that yes in parts I agree with critics on many of their complaints especially regarding the dream sequence and the need to repeat the Batman origin story. Dream sequences often don't help the overall story and usually end up confusing the audience. And because it happens so frequently it interrupts the narrative of the films. Then there is the development of personality. You don't get to really sink your teeth into them and get driven by them. Scenes with each character happening in the scrapbook it feels like before we move on to something else or another dream sequence.Then of course is the fact that our superheroes are far more violent than any other versions of them that have come before or seem to be. Superman kills General Zod at the end of Man of steel and Batman in this movie thinks nothing of smashing bad guys with his car, shooting them with a Gatling gun or stabbing them with knives or branding them with the white hot bat logo
