Frightening/Intense Scenes: The second & third act of this film is very intense & emotional
Story: Following his titanic struggle against General Zod, Metropolis has been razed to the ground and Superman is the most controversial figure in the world. While for many he is still an emblem of hope, a growing number of people consider him a threat to humanity, seeking justice for the chaos he has brought to Earth. As far as Bruce Wayne is concerned, Superman is clearly a danger to society. He fears for the future of the world with such a reckless power left ungoverned, and so he dons his mask and cape to right Superman's wrongs. The rivalry between them is furious, fueled by bitterness and vengeance, and nothing can dissuade them from waging this war. However, a dark new threat arises in the form of a third man: one who has a power greater than either of them to endanger the world and cause total destruction
Likes : Wow where do i start............... The one thing i notice was Chris Terrio screen writing for the second & third act of the film which was clear that could of jumped out at the screen on you , because they were some of the best choreograph scene ive ever scene in a super hero film , so im expecting Chris terrio to do amazing job with justice league film in 2017.
Some of the visual effect in this film were just outstanding special in the fights scene that added that the intenseness to the battle which ive never felt more gripped to the screen. Costume design are brilliantly done, special batman new suit is awesome which i noticed was bullet prove & knife protected , woman woman suit was awesome looking as well.
As for casting Zack Snyder actually did a fantastic job with this film & i'm actually shock with Jesse Eisenberg playing lex luthor , i was expect a really bad performance but he actually raised my expectation in playing this psychotic , mentally unstable, antagonistic attitude character of Lex which actually work for the film.
Ben Aflleck dam what a performance as batman bring this battle - warn out of control vigilante batman that has seen so much death around him. He's become even more darker over the years becoming less human with a no holes barred brutal combatant with this cruel dont give a crap if someone dies attitude.
Which is a shock to fan because normally weve had version of batman that does kill, But i could understand why this version of batman was out of control Ben portray this prefect on screen.
OMG Gal Gadot as wonder woman which people had their doubt about her playing this role but omg she nailed it with class , Zack synder cast choice here was perfect. The way she come off on screen during the battle with that smirk on her face like she was loving this fight was awesome.
What really made her character stand out more is they didnt make her into this weak woman concept like most film would do , they really respected the lure of wonder woman gave her this strength of warrior which showed on screen as a total bad ass woman.
Henry Cavil returning as superman looking more buff & actually look more like superman than ever & the direction they took this with superman is brilliant , they gave it a more emotional concept as superman is confronted with hatred & people calling him a murder.
With henry performance it really help show the the character of superman having doubts about being a superhero , but you could see throughout the film events were push the people to really put pressure on him you could see the conflict in him which made him look more human on screen i like that direction's.
As we know from the trailer with doomsdays i love the way they introduced this because it wasn't forced or felt out of place , although people were complaining about doomsday not look the way he does with the bone spikes people forget that doomsday evolves.
This was the clever thing about this film , is the way they did this evolving thing with every hit doomsday was taking it was getting big & more aggressive which was done in a awesome way , most people would be pleased with.
Yes there was a few flaws at the begin but despite that this film was just outstanding special the fight scene with batman & superman when the first battle each other , what i like is the trailer show this fight in the way that those two just see each other as enemy's they just go at each other.
Yet the film actually build the tension up & events from an antagonistic prick that set up things in motion which force the heroes hands & lends to the show down is perfectly dont in the film really sales the scene.
As for the direction of the end of the film ya i kind of like it , it was emotional it leaves you think what the hell this cant be , but if you look at the way the story unfolds with the people of earth it set it up brilliant for the justice league film in 2017.
Now the nightmare scene with Dark sied scene where superman has gone serious evil , is actually set up in a most spectacular way you understand why this scene is actually in the film which is joined with a certain cameo character which was awesomely done & clever.
With the other Cameo scene i was actually amazed on how well they handles Aqua man , the flash, Cyborg scene in this film introducing them to them to the DCCU, which iam not looking forward to seeing in the justice league , which looks to actually be Dark sied so this will be interesting to see the justice league.
As for the negative reviews from the critics seriously do not take their negative reviews as gospel , seriously I when in to this film with an open mind , view it with my own eye yes there are a few things that feel off but the film is intense & emotional , its a worth while film to watch.
Dislikes : My only two gripes is the screen writing at the beginning , dont get me wrong these scene are good & well written to gave the film some purpose leading to events i like the conventionality from Man of steel that sold the scene lends to why the fight between them is gonna happen.
The but the problem is the editing of these scenes , were to short like they were trying to cram every scene in before the second act , it did slightly ruin the flow of the film.
Which can destroy a film if it to much with it's slow start . these scene should have been a little longer instead of the one shot here then changing to a different scene then to another scene it felt off.
The second gripe i have is almost at the end of batman fighting with superman , there is a bit where im not sure whether they used C.G.I or it the way the scene was shot , it felt a little robotic with C.G.I not sure if anyone else noticed this but it was a little off like some bad editing C.G.I sneak in to the film.
These are the own two thing i found wrong with the film , so everyone is complaining about nothing ya i know people have their own opinions but this isn't as bad has it made out to be.
Overall : gripping , intense fight action, perfect casting & almost a perfect film but still brilliant.
Rating: 5 out of 5 for entertainment / 9 out of 10 for story direction & casting
