    I'm a huge DC fan and Man of Steel really disappointed me. So I am kind of scared to watch it.

    I'm a huge DC fan as well, but every DC movie disappoints me... unless it's animated.

    Luckily the animated universe is so freakin' awesome and outweighs the live action.

    I will agree with that... but for some reason, when I think of DC movies, those don't really fall in that category. That's probably just a bit of cognitive dissonance on my cart, since they seem to be the exceptions rather than the rule (that DC movies are less than sub-par).

    This movie just wasn't "fun". It was an enjoyable movie if I turned my fanboy glasses off though. Not very kid friendly though (we had to make our 5 yo cry about not seeing it after we saw it and decided it was too intense for him).

    I saw it with my husband and his friend, who are both comic book geeks. The general consensus was that if you're a die hard fan, you're going to have complaints, but for the average Joe it was not too bad. My issue with it was that Batman has always been a very cerebral, intelligent character, but in this movie he was too brawny and all roid rage. And the fight scenes where Batman was fighting multiple people were really contrived.

    I will give you my humble opinion of "Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice" without providing spoilers. It went above and beyond my expectations. My first concern was the casting of Ben Affleck as Bruce Wayne: well I have to say he really stepped up to the plate and delivered; His performance as Batman was impeccable and dark as f**k, as Bruce Wayne I felt he did an admirably job but Christian Bale owned that role so well that the the critics were probably so harsh on him since he had such large shoes to fill. Both Superman and Wonder Woman played their parts well. The costumes and effects were utterly amazing. I found the casting of Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor to be a poor choice. I believe they did it to appeal to younger audiences but all I could think of was him as Mark Zuckerberg in "The Social Network". I think the critics are ripping into the film harshly because DC Entertainment has taken two very pivotal milestones in DC comic history, that being that being Frank Miller's "The Dark Knight Returns" and "The Death of Superman" and using artistic license to create an amalgamation that works for the medium of film. Comic purists will secretly enjoy the movie but debate the inconsistencies to no end and film critics will bemoan the fact it didn't live up to the hype (seriously how could it). A lot darker than Avengers. ★★★★☆

    I don't think it's for the whole family - seemed to me it was a little too violent for younger kids.

    I edited that out thanks. I was thinking about my family and our teenage daughter that saw it. (15yrs old)
