Start by saying that I thought Man of Steel was OK (6 out of 10) and B VS S was a bit less at the theater (5 of 10) but the extended edition made it better (6 of 10)
I went to SS on Thursday night after seeing the rotten tomatoes number being low. It lowered my expectations quite a bit. I think that helped, as I agree that the movie itself was riddled with a broken plot, and obvious fanboy eye candy. BUT, i did enjoy the movie overall (7 out of 10).
Leto's Joker was a secondary character and it matched the look and feel of the "modern" joker the movie was aiming for. I thought he would not really fit in with even Affleck's Batman that they want us to take seriously. So, not sure how he will work in a Batman movie.
Will Smith was basically the leading male character of this movie and if anything, he was the glue to make this movie at least a little believable. You can't have EVERY character be an off beat freak and have the audience stay connected to the story.
Margot Robbie did what they wanted, she was hot or cute at the right times and crazy as hell too. She was slightly over used by the end of the movie, but it didn't really hurt the movie. Her character is kind of like frosting on a cake, and this cake had a tad too much. If the planned Harley Quin movie is made, it will most definitely be hard for it to work unless the script is perfect and the supporting characters will need to be REAL strong.
Go see the movie, it was worth it.
It is near the end of the end....
