Forums - Movies & TV - Batman v Superman - just great

I was just in the cinema. I was not sure before, discussions about the casting of ben affleck, discussion about the story, then i read the reviews....

I was afraid, and then i saw it ...

Boom

It's just great. Ben affleck is a great actor, and he is very good. 

The movie has a great story, great effects, all is cool.

Watch it and make your own impression. Forget the reviews.



Around the Network

Just came back from watching it and I didn't really enjoy it at all. The only positive thing I can say about this movie is the special effects.



Saw it yesterday... I left the cinema with my eyes bleeding it was so bad. What the fuck happened here, Snyder? And who the hell decided that Wonder Woman can act? Who was the 12 year old who wrote the script? When they did realize that they are fucking up the concept and decided to cut it in a single night? Did the above mentioned 12 year old wrote the "jokes" or for that they hired his inbred cousin?

IMO the reviews are generous with this one, as the only saving grace are the VFXs. They somehow managed to screw up even the soundtrack... OP I am really sorry, I can understand if someone takes it as a mindless fun, and hopefully free entertainment, but this was on the same cinematography level as Pacific Rim. This is in no way, shape or form a good cinema experience.

Fantastic four made eyes bleed, Delgo made eyes bleed. You are being harsh. Or are you saying it is as bad as those movies? You are seriously saying it was that bad.

So for your eyes to bleed you did not enjoy 5 minutes of it. You fo know many enjoyed Pacific Rim right? And a sequel is in the works.

 

I know, just because a movie is getting a sequel does not mean it was good. But...yeah.

But that is the problem. Fantastic Four was terrible, but I wasnt expecting much. Delgo, I have not seen that one. BvS was big, beautifull but just as dumb and far more of a wasted effort then F4. Any of them. The film suffered from an accute scizofrenia: it tried to continue Nolans tone, to implement Snyders look and copy the humor and pacing of the Marvel movies. What resultad was in my eyes terrible. Yes, I did enjoy it for 5 minutes, while the brawl between B and S went down, but is that all this movie had going for it? The logical lapses are downright insulting for this day and age, and something like this would have been acceptable in the superhero genre in the 70's. The tearjercer scene when Batman almost kills Superman is way past superficially made exploitation and goes to downright that questionable list of one of the worst scenes ever put on film.

This is my unfortunate conclusion. I am picky when it comes to superhero movies, but was all that much to ask for it to be at least on par with Age of Ultron?

I also enjoyed Pacific Rim to an extent. In comparison to BvS, PR was actually fun to watch for the most part, even if it was not a smart movie by any means. Also that was a new IP, compared to Batman and Superman, IPs that have already some standards set before them. This supposed to be the big braketrough for the DC brand to get back the lost crown from Marvel, instead we git this, a movie that rightfully has a lower Rotten rating then Batman Forever. and I would compare it more to the likes of Batman & Robin. I was expecting at least a Nolan level movie, what I got was a Bay movie. Hell, those at least dont take themselves as seriously as thisd one.

So if anyone enjoyed it, good. There is no problem with having a different taste and opinion. This was not meant to insult anyone. If I did so, I am sorry, I just simply wanted this one to work out for me, and I came out from the cinema very disappointed. I still hope it will bring in enough cash to warant a sequel, as I think it needs a retribution.

I do not underrstand. It is like others watched a totally different movie.

This movie was intense! Best Summer Blockbuster of the past few years for me.

I mean did some of you think you were watching the Batman but were actually watching the new Fantastic four movie?

This :)

Wow, that made me genuienly sad for the guy. Many people, even some super fans, praise the hell out of Ben so he shouldn't feel bad (if he actually does) 

Regardless, I can't wait to watch it tomorrow.

Poor Ben, that makes me want to go see the movie tomorrow. He doesnt deserve so much hate.



Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

 PS4: 17m   XB1: 10m    WiiU: 10m   Vita: 10m

 

I agree with the OP it's a great film to watch, critics have been harping on it but having just watched it my personal opinion is that it stands up well to the comic book movies we have today, good film.

I don't understand what exactly the reviewers were expecting.



The movie might not be good but at least it got a hilarious review by the onion:
