Good action. Affleck did a pretty good job as Bruce/Batman. Cavill did Superman well. Jeremy Irons as Alfred was pretty cool; good part for him. The dream sequences were. . .interesting. Cameos kind of felt forced. Not a bad picture, far better than what I expected. Great time to be a comic book fan, and great time for them all at the movies.

Although there was a lot of moving parts in this movie. If you have ever picked up a comic book regarding the justice league, this was a great start to the series.

I really wish there was a standalone Ben Affleck Batman movie prior to this one. It would have made the movie flow much better, in my opinion. It also caught me off guard how dark Affleck's portrayal of Batman is. Even though I am not the biggest fan of this new harsh and dark Batman, I found both Ben Affleck's and Henry Cavill's acting superb. However, I found the character of Lex Luthor to be too jittery and felt like he did not blend in well with the depressing atmosphere. It was almost as if Jesse Eisenberg tried too hard to be "psychotic." Overall, I would give this film 4 stars out of 5, praising it for its beautiful visuals, real-life feel, and its beautiful set-up for The Justice League film series in the DCEU.

There was too much drama and not enough action. Was worrying about setting up future movies instead of focusing on the want to hand. Poorly done. Reaction from leaving the movie theater immediately. I wish I would've waited until this was on video.

if you are a fan of batman and superman you are in for a heck of a treat.Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill, Gal Gadot, Jesse Eiseinburg gave exellent performancesand as for Affleck is easily the best batman I ever seen on screen.I believe that it sets up the justice league up very well and as well as their other stand alone movies.I can't wait for Warner Brothers upcoming DCEU movies.

It was disappointing to see a movie I was so pumped about flop. It's like they weren't even trying. The story was hard to follow. The scenes were choppy. The reason they were fighting was dumb. And Lex Luthor was probably the worst thing about this movie. He was just a knock off Heath Ledger Joker.

Decent movie. A little slow, but that's to be expected all the different characters and elements being established. DC should have had one or two more movies establishing their cinematic universe before this one.

This movie was long and awful. It made no sense, and was generally just a waste of three hours of my life.

Batman v Superman lacks the levity (forced or otherwise) of a typical Marvel Universe entry. But Snyder's superpowered epic does have a sense of import and grandeur about it.

Batman V Superman takes a title fight kids of all ages have been speculating about for decades—costumed titan from the cosmos, meet costumed vigilante from the city—and invests it with all the fun of a protracted custody battle.

There’s enough going on to keep you watching — and, as I said, to keep fanboys wowed by the scale of the production and pretension. But most people will leave feeling drained and depressed, wondering how a studio can get away with withholding so much.
