The ultimate cut is what I saw of Batman vs Superman. It's still a nonsensical piece of shit film. It didn't get average reviews. It had like a 30% on meta when it released in theaters. |
Fair enough that you didn't like it. However, I wouldn't base the quality of a film based on metacritic's score of the theatrical edition. Many reviewers have since admitted that the ultimate cut is definitely a better film.
Despite this, I would still argue that one should not use an aggregate score to judge the quality of a film. There have been movies that were initially panned/recived mixed reviews by critics, only to become classics in the future. For example, The Shining had initially received mixed reviews and is now considered a classic.
I am not necessarily calling Batman vs. Superman a classic, I am merely stating that using critics' aggregate scores as evidence of whether a movie is bad or not does not necessarily determine whether a movie is good or bad. Especially considering the fact that critics in future generations may like what previous critics did not, or movies that were once admired may not have aged well.
