Review of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016) by Carlos F — 18 Aug 2017

Batman vs Superman is the first time in history that we have two iconic characters go head to head on the big screen. The movie is basically a sequel of Man of Steel with some in society blaming Superman for the collateral damage when he fought General Zod. Among his detractors is Bruce Wayne who does not trust an alien. Clark Kent on the other hand is concerned that Batman has a license to kill in Gotham City and wants things done by the book. Lex Luthor plays into this animosity be egging each side on.

BvS is an awesome movie. I highly recommend the Director's Cut as it explains more and is a bit darker. The acting and the action scenes are praiseworthy and the dramatic ending sets this movie apart from the majority of Marvel movies. Some did not understand the movie and hence gave the film a low score but for those who are paying attention and willing to reflect on the movie it is an awesome spectacle. This is not a simple movie, as it requires one to think and put the pieces in place. If you are willing to do that then the movie will be a fantastic experience for you.
