After the levelling of the city of Metropolis by Superman during his epic battle with General Zod in Man of Steel, the world is divided over whether Superman needs to be praised or condemned. The loss of life has left Bruce Wayne feeling angry and helpless. Thinking that Superman is responsible for all this, Batman starts his own vendetta against the Man of Steel. Meanwhile billionaire Lex Luthor, obsessed with removing Superman from the picture has his own plans.
I do not know why I haven't watched any DC movies yet. This film told me to start following DC as well as Marvel in the future. I also do not know why we feared Ben Affleck playing Bruce Wayne. His portrayal of Batman/Bruce Wayne was just perfect; nothing too much or too less. He will do well in the upcoming movies in the DC Extended Universe. Ben Affleck sort of carried the movie forward as it just felt more interesting and gripping when Batman was on screen. Despite what all the critics said, I really enjoyed Jesse Eisenberg's portrayal of Lex Luthor, and I found myself waiting for him to come on screen. Jeremy Irons was also quite impressive as Alfred, but I wish he had a tad more screen time. This film was a visual masterpiece. From the inside of the Kryptonian ship to the climactic battle at the end, the film is a treat for the eyes. If you haven't watched this yet, and are expecting this to be like The Avengers, then just stay home. This movie has a much darker and more serious tone. There's also much less fighting and action sequences than you would expect from a movie which includes Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman. Most of the movie is about politics and the government, so don't expect to be sitting at the edge of your seat. I also found to story a little hard to follow around the middle of the film. But I guess that's just because I don't follow DC as much as I follow Marvel! All in all, a good movie, but could have been improved in some aspects.
