GASP!  A movie's overall score lowered a bit as time went on!  JUST LIKE VIRTUALLY EVERY OTHER MOVIE AND GAME THAT HAS EVER BEEN REVIEWED! 

This is not an anomaly befitting of panic or new, this is the norm.  the anomaly is when review scores go UP, which is incredibly rare.  THAT Would be worth pointing out.  

Ooooor, you can just keep grabbing for anything you can to support your hilarious delusion.  Up to you! 

 While BvS saw a steady plummet, it was quite normal and praised to watch every single review come in. Now that it's being done to this movie, you put forward an explanation as to why scores lower over time and it's nothing to worry about. 

Double standards... 

I saw the updated critic consensus on the OP and had to chuckle quite a bit. The themes and ideas that were in BvS tally higher than arguably the other MCU movies combined. The only true thought provoking MCU movie was Winter Soldier. By god, WB/DC does it and they're criticized and downvoted for having a terrible, dark, gritty story that focuses too much on those pesky thought provoking ideas (religion, god, man, power, saviors). It's execution may be in question, but that still doesn't change the content. 

Because Batman v Superman had a 31, then a 30, then a 29, then settled on a 28.  It was terrible. 

Civil War had 97, then 94, then 92.  it's still above 90.  Even if it settles in the high 80's range, that's still immensely impressive, and unless it gets like 400 negative reviews, it's not gonna match the atrocios 28% Batman v Superman is at.
