I saw the movie earlier today in 3D. I do agree that the movie was far from perfect, however it was not that bad. The action was good and there was a lot of it. There were some parts of the movie that felt rushed or pointless (I will address them in the spoiler section). The writing was average and there was a lot of content that was covered in the 2h30min long movie. Although a long movie, it felt like a 1h30min long movie, I was entertained and not bored in any part. Rotten tomatos gave it a 30%. In my opinion it was a 7-7.5/10. It is an action superhero movie. I was not expecting "Titanic" or Gladiator" level of script and story telling. I go to this kind of movie for the action not for the story telling.
The following section will contain spoilers:
Let me start with the critique. For one, why was Wonder Women included? She literally had 10 lines, shows up to fight Doomsday, have 10 more lines and that is it. Pointless. Aquamen, by far the lamest of them all ( in my opinion), was shown for 10 sec as well. Why? (other than exciting people for an upcoming movie). Two, Superman drags Doomsday in space and in 2 sec, the president decided to nuke them and BOOM!!, in 2 more sec, the nuke hits them. It seems like they were chilling and drinking a cup of coffee while waiting for the nuke to hit them. There is no way a missile can go in the atmosphere in a matter of seconds. Just the trip is around 3min and the decision making and preparing for launch should add at least 10min but w/e I guess. Three, once second Batman is trying to kill Superman, and the next theyre best buddies just because Superman mentions his mom's name which coincidentally is Batman's mom name. There was a couple of other minor things I had a problem with but I could ignore them. I went to watch the movie for the action and it did not disappoint me. This movie is a hit or miss, nothing in between.
Has anyone seen the movie early? If so, how was it?
