Review of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016) by Dalesworth — 27 May 2016

For every good aspect of BvS, there are two more awful aspects to counteract it. Despite excellent visuals and a few standout characters, the film suffers from an overstuffed plot, awful editing and very poor grasp of the source material.

It has an excellent score, but implements it awkwardly throughout many scenes. It has epic character moments brought down by gaping plot holes. It takes the first meeting between pop culture's two most iconic superheroes and squanders it with a story that comes across as bad fanfiction from an angst-ridden teenager.

The amount of wasted potential here is truly astounding.
