Batman V. Superman: Dawn of Justice gets a lot of grief, and while some things remain terrible, it has some high points too.
, a film that polarized many comic book movie fans. While countless fans blindly call it a genuine masterpiece, and countless others blindly call it a monumental disaster, the truth lies somewhere between.
There are several problems with the movie, and some of these things age like milk as the years go on, as they become even more problematic. However, there are other things in the film that were great when it was released, and have aged like fine wine in the decade since it hit theaters.debuted in theaters on March 25, 2016, and here are three things that aged like fine wine since its release, and three things that continue to look bad and have aged like milk over the decade since., and it really goes against everything he has ever stood for. Yes, this was a version of Batman from a world where he had almost given up, but it is in no way the heroic Batman from DC Comics. However, even worse than Batman killing bad guys without a care is Batman deciding that he needs to murder Superman, who has done nothing wrong. The idea of Batman deciding that an alien deserves to die just because he isn’t from here, and just because he has powers, is a terrible look. That blind idea that he has to kill Earth’s most honorable hero “just in case” has aged like milk. Batman is a pure villain for most of this movie.was the first appearance of Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman in the DCEU, and it was a fantastic entrance for the warrior. When Wonder Woman showed up to the fight, she came out with her sword and her fury and stood tall beside the two DC megastars. In some ways, she outshone both of them., trying to figure out his place in the world, and Batman spent his first appearance in this movie trying to murder another superhero, Wonder Woman showed up as the beacon of what a hero is supposed to look like. This led to her solo movie, which remains the best movie in the DCEU, and Wonder Woman’s debut is as great today as it was a decade ago.. The biggest problem in this movie, and the thing that has aged the worst, was that it was over-bloated. This movie didn’t tell one story; it squeezed two giant DC stories into one movie’s running time, and that didn’t allow either of the stories to shine at all. This film was Batman vs. Superman, and it was alsoThe movie spent a lot of time leading up to the Batman and Superman fight, but then it clearly had to end so they could go fight Lex Luthor and save both Lois Lane and Martha Kent. However, it then squeezed in Doomsday into the ending and had that climactic battle, which saw Superman sacrifice himself to save the world. This movie shortchanged Doomsday like no other, andshould have been a second movie, when it happened was still satisfying. Batman had spent much of the movie trying to kill Superman for being a threat to the planet, despite having no evidence that this was anywhere near the truth. Superman wanted to save everyone he could, which was his main story arc sinceWhen Superman knew he had to make the ultimate sacrifice to save Batman, Wonder Woman, and everyone he loved in the world, he didn’t hesitate. Superman’s death was an emotional moment and one that worked well to end this movie. It might have been even better if it had happened in an actualImage Courtesy of Warner Bros Jessie Eisenberg is a great actor, and he has proven that in several roles over his career. However, he was severely miscast in. Eisenberg was over the top, completely unhinged, and delivered a fun performance in the movie, but he was not Lex Luthor. In the end, it is unclear who he was supposed to be because this wasn’t Lex from the comics or the world of movies and TV. Gene Hackman was nothing like Lex Luthor from the comics, but he was still closer to the character than whatever Eisenberg was doing here. Michael Rosenbaum was a perfect Lex Luthor, and more recently, Nicholas Hoult really delivered a brilliant performance of a young Lex Luthor, channeling a lot from Rosenbaum’s performance. Eisenberg’s Lex Luthor curdled like old milk the second the movie hit theaters.Batman trying to kill Superman for being a superpowered alien was a terrible story decision. The entire scene where Superman said “Save Martha” and Batman demanded to know why he said that name was cringeworthy in all the worst ways. However, while that scene was terrible in the movie, it did something that actually worked very well. The “Martha” moment is when Batman realized he was the villain in this story. Batman realized when he heard the name and understood that Superman’s mother was also named Martha that Clark Kent was as “human’ as anyone else there. It was an important moment because Batman realized he had become a murderer and almost stepped over the line that would make him no better than Joker, Bane, or any other villain he had fought to stop over the years. “Martha” was a poorly done scene in, but it was a massively important moment in Batman’s character arc, and aged like fine wine because it forced him to become a hero once again.11 Years Ago, the Best Modern Star Wars Character Made Their First Appearance Charlize Theron Battles Taron Egerton’s Serial Killer in First Trailer For Netflix’s Wilderness Thriller APEXI’m Convinced I Already Know How Dune: Part 3 Ends Season 2 of Stephen King’s Hit Horror TV Series Is Officially Happening
