That is absolutely strawberry floating amazing.

Just read a spoiler Tumblr.

Impossible to avoid stuff on social media.

Off to see the movie at 1.30, I know I'll enjoy it as I loved Man of Steel and the Directors Cut of Watchmen.

[Mafro]

Yes!

[Skippy]

At least Kermode's review will be up this afternoon to balance things out

Here it is.

See, there's a YouTube review from an actual adult.

Credit to him for hoping fans enjoy it. As fun as its been to see some fans in denial, any time there's a film I don't like but someone else does that's my loss. I wish I loved every film! Like I said before though, it isn't terrible, it's just bad. This sure as gooseberry fool isn't Terminator Genisys.

Just back from seeing this..... Spoiler free and then tons of spoilers hidden below.....

So - Spoiler Free-

Long, no focus, felt like a massive montage, very clunky writing, no actual batman vs superman or action until the end, some of the worst shoe horned in cameos ever and a script that felt like it was written about 25 years ago before the world learned how to make super hero movies.

6/10

For strawberry floats sake.

The start is very good, I love Bruce Wayne and the reaction to the huge battle.

And then..... It all goes odd,every scene felt like it was filmed somewhere else for a different film.

Batman is great, superman is great, wonder woman and her theme tune is epic, bat vs superman is great, ......

Then there is lex, worst lex ever.

Doomsday, strawberry float right off. Making him bigger than 4 hulks stuck together was a gooseberry fool idea, pure CGI battle isn't good at all.

He was so wasted and so crap, he needed to be strong, not a giant battery, hated most of that fight.

The lex and batman stuff towards the ending trying to set stuff up was meaningless as it had no real reveal of the big bad.

The Cameos, my god the cameos, Aquaman was brief and pointless, how can flash appear in a dream? And cyborg felt like it had been taken from TV show.

But the worst thing of all was the marketing. There was surprises at all, doomsday should have been kept back, as should have most of the fight and all of batman raid scene.

Such a huge letdown, however I did still find it flew by and the good geeky bits kept me going, just wish it had been either lighter or darker and not this extended trailer and tease for the good stuff on a couple of years.

Damn, sounds like you really didn't like the film

6/10

Now I'm confused.

[Skippy]

6/10 is a devastating score from some.

[Godzilla]

It's batman and friends in a movie and in parts it's fantastic, but as a film it'll be talked about for a long time as it has a very strange feel to it. I'd like a directors cut as either lots was cut out or the studio added lots in.

What was wrong with Angry Joe's reviews?

What was wrong with Angry Joe's reviews?

The fact he's one of those people whose selling point is that he gets angry about stuff, so he has to force himself to be angry in most the videos he does, yelling gooseberry fool like "I DONE strawberry floated UP SUPERMAN!!!". Grow up. Angry Joe is by no means for the worst for this though - he at least raises good points sometimes. In this instance he's probably actually angry about the film too, and I don't blame him.

[Mafro]

NO FUN ALLOWED.

[Skippy]

That might be the most accurate review of the movie in here

[CuriousOyster]

Just seen it, thought it was bloody good. Affleck might be my favourite Bruce/Batman.

Superman was a lot more likeable, really enjoyed the whole God angle. Even iked Lex and find Jesse quite annoying.

Solid 7.5/10 for me.

Sums up the last few DC films at least. It's been a while since I've seen Man of Steel but one of the main things I remember was the one and only joke was the very last scene of the film.

[CuriousOyster]

I laughed a few times, were some dark subjects so wasnt really the right place.

Don't remember any jokes in TDK trilogy or any of it being 'fun'.

[7256930752]

Why do you think those films need lots of humour? I've struggled to get through a second viewing of Avengers: AOU because the'humour'is so forced and cringe worthy.

[Neo Cortex]

My main memory of Age of Ultron was Scarlett Johnson saying "hey big guy" all of the time. I have a filthy mind.

On topic though I quite liked Batman v Superman, it's not citizen Kane but certainly better than Man of Steel at least.
