I have to say, I did enjoy this film to an extent, and certainly more than The Dark Knight Rises (which depressed me the more I thought about it).
Granted, I read the reviews and fan responses, talked to people I work with and watched it with good friends who coached me on what to expect going in.
That really doesn't paint a good picture for the movie that it took that much to get some enjoyment out of it, but it is what it is.
For the first time I was genuinely scared shitless by Batman, and in his first scene no less. That, combined with the Arkham-style brawling and stylistic choices really created an impressive live-action Batman that holds it's own with the rest.
Cavill did a pretty good job as well, particularly as a very human Clark Kent.
I was surprised by how much I enjoyed Wonder Woman's part in this. Gal herself and the presentation were perfect.
The rest? Yikes.
Lex Luthor was terrible until the last scene.
Alfred made me wish Bruce would punch him in the face...repeatedly.
Perry White was awful.
Then the movie itself was a combination of director indulgent and studio meddling mashed together.
It's amazing I liked it as much as I did, really.
