What is the problem with this 8.4/10 movie? I was movies to tears by the Martha scene and bat man saving superman mother was one of the most exciting fight scenes ever put to film.
What's the criticism here?

People don't like seeing superheroes given undesirable human attributes or situations.

Dont bother, this board is contrarian and hates everything.

(ultimate edition)
Because its extremely bloated. Horrendously edited. Poorly cast. Baldly acted. Lazily written. Painstakingly dull. Unbelievably boring. Unnecessarily broody. Terribly paced. And that is just the first hour, there is still two more hours left.

The shear number of pointless subplots are simply staggering. Plot holes? You mean mystery elements. The fact that someone read the script and decided it was worthy of spending over 250 million to bring it to the screen boggles my mind. This is what happens when you take five different scripts that have no sense of correlation. Did editing and streamlining the story not cross anyone's mind.

The production is big on making terrible decisions and this is clearly evident in the casting. Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luther is laughably bad giving his rejected Social Network performance as twitching Mark Zuckerberg. Gal Gadot is by far the biggest miscast. Most people complained when she cast due to her poor physicality and zero resemblance to Wonder Woman. Those points are fine, but the biggest drawback is that she's frankly not a good actress. She has the emotional range of a potato. Her big reveal in costume is complete with a 'cool' guitar rift like it's some Robert Rodriguez film. During action scene she is replaced by her cgi double which obviously looks bigger and muscular in comparison to Gal Gadot's actual physical appearance. I just couldn't help by have a good chuckle at that.

I've rewatched Man of Steel and this recently, and it legitimately confuses me why people give these such low reviews, they have much more substance and story than any Marvel punchfest they've made in the last few years.

The biggest misstep in the entire production is the appointment of Zack Snyder as director. It seem like he just walked of the set of making Watchmen and nobody seemed to tell him that he wasn't contracted to direct a lackluster patchwork Watchmen sequel. An opening scene that features Jeffrey Dean Morgan being killed with a slo-mo shot of a shell casing exiting a gun; the government against masked vigilantes, a powerful god-like superhuman figure; a man that dresses in a black costume and fights crime with gadgets coming out of retirement; the death of a famous hero; not one, but three funeral scenes. How is this not recycling elements of Watchmen.

Zack Snyder has the inability to direct scenes where no action takes place and he can't mask it with stylish cgi backgrounds like he did in 300. Simply put when there's no explosions it dull and boring. Simple character interactions prove to be a struggle for a director who still gets his philosophy for his movies from teenage web forums. Religious references that completely lack subtlety and elegance doesn't make you movie 'intellectual'.

Other grievances include: a scene and a plot point that revolves around urine; Lex Luther's so called evil plan; Knightmare; a hyped fight that just ends up being a normal fistfight; and actual teaser trailers for future movies in the franchise.

Pretty much this.

this, I can understand not liking them but to say they are as bad as critics imply is very astounding.

I watched it yesterday on a plane ride to Korea. It wasn't that entertaining of a movie. There were a lot of silly shots and dialogue decisions that took me out of the film.

A few examples? Lex had some bad dialogue, but nothing seemed that bad.

A PIECE OF SHIT

The movie is basically Zack Snyder's Excalibur, reading his thoughts on that film from 2010 is enlightening.

Very good read, thank you. It seems like zack is very passionate about what he does, and it shows in the way he communicates during that interview.

Watching the behind the scenes for BvS, its pretty obvious that a lot of time and effort went into every detail. Its sad no one really appreciates this film.

Superheroes are a piece of shit.

Here's some more on the Excalibur connection.

characters do not have motivations

>shear


ha ha I think you meant SHEER breh he he oh well guess I'm not reading the rest of your posts now

what does BvS have to do with Sup Forums?

Meant to reply to

>How is this not recycling elements of Watchmen.

Because it's a story based on the propetrties of which Watchmen was satire, you fucking idiot. To even make this post degrades me as a person because it means I'm having to interact directly with someone as awful as you.

>Baldly acted. Lazily written.

Only an idiot would say this.

Thanks for this. Reading it right now.

>they have much more substance and story than any Marvel punchfest they've made in the last few years.

AND better punching.

>What is the problem with this 5.4/10 movie?

oh man u really got us ;)

I give this movie a 3 / 10. Here is why:

The good: Effects. Acting. Atmosphere.

The bad: No plot. No character development. Terrible scene transitions. No scenes fit together. Basically the production was a clusterfuck and it shows.

If the production was not a clusterfuck, this would be a 9 / 10

Lazy writing
Horrendous editing
Terrible pacing
Sums it up

watching capeshit fans try to dissect this movie is hilarious

>no character development

try again

so you are a princess?

Said nobody with an iq above room temperature

No, I am a regular person

The effects were fucking shit. Whole movie looked like a muddled cgi fuckfest.

Kek, I like how he had to edit this shitty pasta cause he got BTFO.

too intelligent for them.

>mfw people say the character's motivations weren't clear when they literally address the fucking audience telling them their motivation
