AND IT WASN'T EVEN proper DOOMSDAY! it was some hackneyed, lazy version of #175 doomsday made from zod. you mean you don't have time to cram doomsday's proper origin? then maybe it this movie isn't the right time for doomsday. gods. the worst part is this means we won't ever get a proper live-action, high-budget, well-supported doomsday movie in the dc universe. and that pisses me off.

+aaarsix Ikr? The person in charge of marketing should be fired. The teaser and the comic con trailer were perfect. But the final two gave us everything. I understand the second trailer gave us the Doomsday reveal because they wanted to get ahead of a leak. But if that's the case, they need to seriously tighten their security at ALL of the studios. It's garbage that we are getting spoilers from some idiot in the crew or some extra who decides "Hey, everyone. Look at what I'm working on! Look at what I'm doing!" I am sick of it' I know, in the internet age, it's impossible for anything to be kept secret. But if 10 Cloverfield Lane can be cast' filmed and put together with no one knowing about it until the trailer drops, surely these bigger budget films should be focused on keeping a tighter lid on everything. I don't know who was responsible for the Doomsday leak which led to his reveal in the trailer. But they are a complete and total idiot who did no favors to the fans, and even ruined it for them.

No, there should be TONS of talking in it. Especially from Superman, he's being blamed for the deaths of hundreds of people and that's supposed to be part of his character arc that leads to him becoming the Superman we all know and love. It's kinda hard to do a character arc like that when we have no clear grasp of the character's personality since he barely ever talks. Congratulations Snyder, you made a Superman that can frown and look angry. Next time you should try to write a Superman with an actual personality.

Short version of the review: The writting is weak, character's motivations are all over the place, the characterization is off, Eisenberg's Lex Luthor is cringe-worthy and Affleck looks good as Batman even though he doesn't really act like Batman. But hey, it had 10 seconds of CGI insectoid aliens... so I guess it was good after all!

So we're stuck with a movie where not only do we have a terrible script, we've got a terrible script that's asking us to buy into a superman who is completely unfamiliar and utterly unlike-able.

I'm pretty sure Batman said "I'm with your son" and not that they were friends. Also, the whole "why did you say that name!" thing Batman did, I think he stopped because at that moment he realized that Superman had a mother just like any other "man" on earth. It made him more human to batman, which is why I think he had a change of heart.

Great review man... I also enjoyed the movie. Affleck played a cool and sophisticated older Wayne and an awesome Batman. I agree with a lot of things you covered in your review, even the fact that some scenes of the movie I also had 'wtf' moments only to be re leaved they were but dream sequences. The fight scene with the thugs in the warehouse is by far the most physical I've ever seen in any Batman movie, a brutal and powerful display of Batman's combat skills, the fact his body amour was taking an onslaught of bullets (even his cowl) and knives, was a freakin awesome display of choreography. Welcomed back the 'Man of Steel' cast, it was good to see them back playing their roles, a nice continuance of the MOS movie and the destruction from the by-standing point of view which also set the reason for Wayne's eagerness to bring down Supe's. Alfred's dialog is so hilarious, he say's some funny shit in the movie, I like Jeremy Irons portrayal of the Bat-butler, reminded me of the old Alan Napier Alfred, cheeky and witty. Wonderful Woman... as far as her portrayal of the Amazon Warrior Princess, pure awesomeness... still trying to figure out her role as Diana Prince because in the most of her scenes, it seemed like she was trying to conceal her identity, worried about exposure to what or whom I was thinking... maybe a mission went sour in her past which threatened her and her kinds very existence... interesting. I'm glad Doomsday never got the chance to mature or there'd be 10 fucking sequels... they did the right thing to kill him off in the movie... there's plenty more villains out there in the DC universe.

"This is a movie with the 2 most popular superheroes. If we believe there is even a 1% chance that this movie is bad, we have to take it as an absolute certainty!"

Can people stop misinterpreting the end of the Batman/Superman fight? It wasn't just their mothers' names that made them stop, it was in that moment that Batman saw Superman as a human. Seeing him, within an inch of his life with precious few words/minutes left, only ask for Batman to save Martha Kent. You see, before that moment Batman saw Superman as a cold hearted alien who really didn't have any care for the human race. That "if he wanted to, could burn the whole place down." So for Superman to plead for his mother's life, not his own, gave Batman a new way of seeing him. No longer was he an alien, but a human being. Just as much a citizen of earth as Batman. On the surface it is their mother's names that show some equalities between the two but it takes on a completely second meaning upon second viewings/more in-depth thought. THAT is good writing, right there.

Hahaha "give me the knife, please". The golden child.

its amazing how kevin is capable of talking for an hour about a movie and make it engaging. He doesnt even need someone else to talk to. thats talent

I could listen to Kevin Smith talk about anything....all day. He's got this wise, soothing, bear-like voice. Like he's the guy you'd want to learn the force from, or read you a story to bed.

Nolan did both "light eyes" and "broken mask" Batman, Kevin. He had the light eyes in The Dark Knight when he was using his sonar, and the broken Batman mask was the poster for The Dark Knight Rises.

I wanted to love this movie. I really did. I tried so hard to love it but sadly im very very disappointed. I cannot describe how hype i was for this movie, ever since that comic con announcement, i have counted each day until march 25 2016. I had so many expectations and they were flushed down the toilet. I absolutely loved Man of Steel, one of my favorite movies ever, and in my opinion also Zack Snyder's best movie. But is simple terms, this movie was a fuck up. Visually, it was fantastic, everything else, shit. It had everything to succeed. Fantastic Cast, BEN AFFLECK WAS THE BEST THING ABOUT THIS MOVIE, THE ABSOLUTE BEST BATMAN. BEN AFFLECK IS THE GOD DAMN BATMAN, THE DARK KNIGHT, THE CAPED CRUSADER, THE WORLD'S GREATEST DETECTIVE. He was one of the only things I loved about this movie, but back to the point, fantastic cast, Henry Cavill is a splendid Superman, Gal Gadot absolutely aced the Wonder Woman role. Amy Adams once again did a great job. The cast was great, its the story that disappointed me. However, i am a hardcore fan, Im still just as hyped for the DC Cinematic universe, especially for the standalone Ben Affleck Batman movie. I just pray that Zack learns from his mistakes and doesn't fuck up The Justice League. That movie will fulfill my childhood dream.

Even tho Kevin is a positive guy and was saying positive stuff we cant deny that he was little bit sad talking about the movie, I remember he talking about star wars or marvel movies , he talks with a smile in his face , too bad that the movie didn't make the nerdiest guy in the planet excited :// like most of the nerds I like the movie too , surprising more that than other people, but watching kevin talking all sadie made me see that the movie was just okay

The movie is flawed and disappointing to an extent becaise it wasn't all it could have been and the one thing that hurt it most was the pacing on caffeine because it never slowed down to let you process certain scenes and feel the emotional beats.. That also doesn't inherently make it a bad movie even though it had the makings of a masterpiece. It's still good. It has far too many redeeming qualities that are just so well done to say it's bad and anything less than good.

Man, it's a MESS. The more you really think about this movie the angrier you get and you realize that this movie is just DUMB. I'm sorry but this is not a good movie at all. If you like it that's ok, I respect that and more power to you. But as a DC fan I was very disappointed, apart from Batman and those cool visuals and action scenes (which are way too short).

this movie was perfect I'm so glad they stuck to the DC formula and didn't try to copy the watered down marvel happy kids movies which are good in their own rights most of the time but just ain't dark DC which I love.

Dark doesn’t equal good

Kevin - I agree with you that seeing the Parademon made my day. I was so happy to see a clashing of futures in the dream sequence between the possible Injustice as well as an invasion from Apokolipse. I have a theory for you, regarding the use of Doomsday and the "death" of Superman. Much like the DC Rebirth comics, this film decided to launch from quite a bit of New 52 story arcs. It seemed to me that Snider was quite literally putting to death the Man of Steel film, even though they had launched off of it. He transforms Zod into Doomsday, thus removing the actor and character from future stories and kills the Man of Steel (instead of Superman). That way we can use the great acting and casting of Henry Cavill as Superman and we can have a "rebirth" of the WB film genre of the characters. Besides, now that Kal-El defeated the giant spider at the beginning of the third act of Man of Steel, no need to stay with the old guard on the future films. Anyway, just a theory or idea as to why the use of Doomsday and the death of Superman.

Kevin liked it, I am soooo shocked. He loves every fucking thing.

+Immortan Joe He never bitch on comic-book films cause he wants to keep his Hollywood friends.

This movie failed because they weren't confident enough to write a proper Man of Steel 2 movie. Instead it got titled Batman V Superman and guess what they failed at that too, because as Kevin says its technically Man of Steel 2. Batman played a role in this movie but he was not the central figure, Superman was. Batman was just one of the people reacting to Superman's presence on Earth. They were so insistent on shoving so much plot into a single movie and inserting Batman wherever possible that they messed up the overall story of the movie. By the end of this movie you were supposed to care about Superman a lot and the ending was supposed to be emotional. His death in the comics is a MASSIVE thing. But the characters in the movie weren't developed enough, not well defined as to who they were and what motivated them to be who they are. Not only did they play the death card too soon, they cheapened it with the floating dust scene. Did you feel any emotion at the death of Superman? NOPE. And then they went and floated the dust because they are scared shitless of taking any chances. So even if you were remotely moved by Superman's death, which is how it was supposed to be...PSYCHE, he's fine. This movie was a serious disappointment. Oh and they should kill off Lois. Seriously just do it.

That's like saying Supergirl season 1 Ep 18 is really Flash season 2 Ep 20. It's like people who supposedly are comic book fans don't understand the concept of crossovers!!! This is like an issue of World's Finest (or you know Batman/Superman) continuing the story after an issue of Superman. People act like they don't know anything about comics!!! Which is fine for the general public, but is just plain stupid for a comics fan like Kevin.

I like the way you are encouraging people to make up their own mind about movies before watching reviews. I totally enjoyed Batman v Superman. I love the dark style DC is using for their movies. It is wonderful that we are getting comic-movies which are very different from the way marvel does them. I think having more variety within all the comic-movies can't be a bad thing.

Man of steel did it right

I get Kevin's view on the movie. Honestly the "Martha" thing worked for me. It made me think of how much of violence/war seems to need to dehumanize the opposing force. Make them the "other." I saw it as Batman seeing Superman honestly not as a person/human and why he is so able to see him just as a probability of danger or even a creature. When Martha is mentioned, just the fact that Superman has a mom, that he isn't just saving random people. And I guess they decided that using Martha rather than say Lois was a better reason for it to cause Batman to pause. That was my take on what they were going for anyway. But yeah, movie was still nearly joyless, and WonderWoman's look of fierce battlelust was awesome, but after such a grim slog instead of being a cheering point it almost felt out of place. Final Edit: As someone who's watched most if not all of the comic book MOVIES but not read the comics themselves--the bug monster dream made no sense to me as it was introducing new information that Batman wouldn't know anything about. I get that Batman would dream about an out of control Superman, but he wouldn't know about Omega symbols or bug monsters. So was that a vision someone floated into his head?? The Flash breaking through with info made way more sense having watched the Flash TV show.

DCEU will be great if it can be written half as good as young justice.

That Golden Child reference 😂😂

Loved everything about this movie. Wonder Legs, Bats and Supahman hell yeah! Something, something, something Wonder Legs, Bats and Supahman the end.

I thought the opening 3 scenes were the best part of the movie. Bruce powerless to protect his loved ones as a child, becomes batman and no longer has that problem until the 3rd scene where again, despite him being batman, he is powerless to protect his loved ones. That was a perfect sequence of scenes

when he heard superman plead to save martha, he realized he was not an alien, but human

Edit out all the dream sequences and visions then have it start at the Daily Planet with the announcement of Superman’s state funeral and you get to do a single flashback from Lois at the graveside where Clark’s body has really been buried to the attack months earlier on Metropolis seen from the ground. This gives Bruce a motivation to rid Earth of this dangerous alien and the trouble he brings with him and the collateral damage it creates. Later we see Clark at the Daily Planet wanting to cover the vigilante operating in Gotham whilst Perry wants him to cover some minor story. Then cut to Batman as he frees the women from the sex traffickers, splicing together footage of girls held captive, and the fight he does prior to freeing Martha (as she is no longer taken captive by Lex). This makes Batman look awesome and is his opening. We get the cops investigating and him hanging in the corner of the room like a bat. Kryptonite is discovered in the Indian Ocean and Lex persuades Congress to allow him to make a “silver bullet” to use against the Superman (should he turn evil) and gains permission to import what has been found in India (which is pure mineral Kryptonite). The detective work of Bruce leads him to intercept Lex’s shipment as he feels he should kill Superman now, rather than wait for him to become a hazard. This makes Batman a stronger Superman nemesis than Luthor. He forges various weapons, trains in order to be strong enough to wear the heavy armor, and forges a Kryptonite spear with which to piece the dangerous alien’s heart. There is a long fight at the end of which Superman is incapacitated by Kryptonite gas, and as Batman is poised to plunge the spear into Superman’s heart Lois turns up just in time and calls out “Clark!” And Batman stops as he realises the true identity of this alien is just the costumed persona of the quite reasonable reporter he met at Lex’s party. Superman is Clark Kent and isn’t some distant aloof alien who plays at being a demigod, but a reporter for The Daily Planet with a girlfriend. Batman doesn’t kill Superman, and Superman then uses the spear to kill Doomsday as in the meantime Lex has decided that this alien demigod is a threat to humanity, if not directly, then through association with characters like General Zod. Doomsday kills Superman, then the flashback ends and we see Bruce and Diana at the Kent farm discussing the need to search for more people who have abilities like them (none of which are foreshadowed as each of their origin films would be an independent setup prior to the first of the Justice League movies). The film ends with the soil levitating from Clark’s grave. Hope.

This movie is a jar of piss.

Batman doesn't stop because of the names of the mothers. He stops because he realises he's become Joe Chill and is now the same as the guy who killed his parents and can relate to superman in that way now.

In Arrow, Anatoli Knyazev / KGBeast made his first appearance in the Season 2 episode "Crucible" and was portrayed by David Nykl.

Ben Affleck's Batman really reminds me of Daniel Craig's James Bond in Skyfall.

I don't know if anyone caught this, but I felt like B V S was a redemption story for Batman. Batman tells Alfred that all the "heroes are dead" and he lost all hope for the justice system and took a turn to start branding and murdering criminals. The movie shows a scene where Clark gets photos of the branded criminal and sees him dead in those photographs, which eluded to the fact that if a criminal gets branded with the Batman symbol he or she would be killed by other inmates in prison. In the last scene with Batman and Luther, Batman decides NOT to brand Luther, but instead hits the wall with the Batman brand to show that Batman has decided to change because of the heroic inspiration Man of Steel displayed while giving up his life fighting Doomsday. But that's the thing - it took me a SECOND time to understand THAT through line because the film was edited that way. Great ideas, but poorly edited film.

Bats is losing his grip on good and Sups is losing his grip on humanity. By seeing the sacrifice that Bruce is willing to give up to fight Doomsday (which he is helplessly outmatched) the Man of Steel learned that Batman is a Hero just a dark one losing his grip. And by Superman giving his life to save humanity (and to save his mother with a dying last wish) Bruce realized that Superman needed to have something to fight for and stay human.

Ben Affleck was on point as Bruce Wayne/Batman! And I agree 100% that after seeing the Parademons, I was in Nirvana for the remainder of the movie. Enough to forgive some of the Doomsday shortcomings. I really hope Ben Affleck stays on board for more movies and gets some stand alone Batman movies.

I think there was some point in the script where Lois Lane is told about the Kryptonite spear, because I have no idea how exactly she knew that Doomsday was weak to Kryptonite just as Superman was. That was some confusing editing/cutting in this film.

For the love of God, he didn't stop because their mothers' names were both Martha. Batfleck remembers why he started the crusade. It plays to Snyder's Christ allegory; Batfleck's lost his soul and Kal-El redeems him.

"People are always like, ‘You changed Superman’ If you’re a comic book fan, you know that I didn’t change Superman. If you know the true canon, you know that I didn’t change Superman. If you’re a fan of the old movies, yeah I changed him a bit. That's the difference. I'm a bit of a comic book fan and I always default to the true canon. Not the cinematic canon that sort of, that in my opinion, plays fast and loose with the rules. And so, I feel like I tried to create a Superman that would set a tone for the world." Zack Snyder about Reeves' Superman movies. " ...the cinematic canon ... that in my opinion, plays fast and loose with the rules." Ok, let me see if I get it straight, Mr. Snyder: the old movies took the time to develop Clark/Superman in 2 movies, showed us what the character stood for, among other stuff, and - yet - " plays fast and loose with the rules." But you, Mr. "Visionary", YOU, just introduced Aquaman, Flash, Cyborg, Wonder Woman, Batman, a shit ass Superman, the Justice League, Apokolips, Darkseid, Superman's Death, teased Superman Returns (or reign of Supermen, if you wish) The Dark Knight Returns - among other stuff - in ONE CRAP MOVIE and believe that it's NOT rushed? Please, someone, stop Zack Snyder! :(

The Martha part is not about my mom and your mom. When the phantom zone inmates ask for Superman in Man of Steel, they say someone has been hiding out on your planet. That is all the info Batman has on Superman. He does not know that he grew up on this world. He realizes that Superman has a stake in this world and that he is one with humanity. the moral of the story is about finding humanity in yourself by seeing the humanity in others in my opinion. The next time you watch the film pay attention to how Superman knows that he doesn't belong; therefore, he does not infer in human on human violence. He is saving people from disasters not from other people except in the cases of the ones he loves. This is why he only warns Batman when he crashes his batmobile. It is more significant than what you think.

+DEADeyeEFFECT I have found that many of the "plot holes" and issues that people have found are based on not paying attention to what is going on. And I am not saying that people aren’t “smart enough” to get it. I think that they have gone in thinking “this is a fun movie, I can shut my brain off and just enjoy it”. Like many of the issues Smith points out, people aren’t picking up on subtext and the clues layered throughout the movie. I don’t know, I suppose you have to blame the film makers for maybe being too subtle or not direct enough, but the clues are there. Case in point, Winter Soldier, which is a terrific film, does all the heavy lifting for both the audience and the characters in the film. Not only do Cap and Widow not have to try that hard to get the info they need, but it’s all cleanly laid out for them in a monologue from a an evil scientist turned into a computer. Of course they say he was stalling so they could get hit by a missile, which they survived by going down 5 feet and covering themselves up with a 3’ wide shield,so its obvious they wanted an excuse to do an information dump on the audience. People take things at face value in blockbusters because they have been trained to. So the Martha sequence, which was loaded with subtext, looks like a farce.

I hate when a character knows things he shouldn't. Don't get me wrong, the movie had alot of problems: lex, lex's motives, manbat dream, Jonathan Kent acid trip, bad doomsday CGI etc. I really can't give a good review on choppiness without watching the full version. Yeah, they didn't need to build an elevator to get down one floor in winter soldier. "look a secret staircase." those bunker busters really do suck. could not kill two people in a room through 3' of concrete.

lets be Super friends! is not what essentially happens in that moment. Throughout the movie Batman uses his motivation as the death of his parents he watches die in front of him. He believes hes doing justice and even speaks about his parents while fighting Superman. Batman is reminded of his own turmoil when he realizes Supermans in need of his help to save his own mother from thugs. How is that a fucked up moment? How thick of glasses do you need to except that perception.

Laughed out loud about 15 times. Hilarious review, great sense of humour.

The Martha scene was the one scene i felt truly made sense. They had the whole symbolism scene throughout the entire movie of god vs man. bat man even made superman BLEED to try and peg him down. The sharing the same mothers name wasn't for them to say hey we have something in common lets be friends! I believe it was at that moment batman realized "hey superman isn't just some prick god who blatantly shows off his powers excessively. he's also a human being" Stealth Vs. Frontal assault Night Vs.

The kevin coster story on the mountain meant to me was that he said as a child his farm was going to be flooded. His father and himself worked all day to prevent the flooding and when they did his grandmother made him a cake as a reward. Little did he know that the stream burst again and drowned the horses. "While I was eating hero cake those horses were drowning" I think the moral of the story was, sometimes you can try as hard as you can and things still don't go to plan. He was trying to console superman for not seeing that the hearing was a trap and that he wasn't responsible for their deaths.

He didn't kill him just because of the MARTHA name, he realized at that moment that he, the most powerful being in this world and probably the universe, has a mother and is crying out to him to save her even though he is about to be killed. That is what Bruce realized, that this Superman is, like him, a man, (apart from the Super) and has a mother named Martha who is about to be killed. So Bruce had already lost a Martha and he ain't letting another Martha get murdered!

They showed plenty of moments that broke Bruce. Metropolis, the dreams, the senator getting blown up. But, sure, death of Robin would be fun to see. Especially in a Batman Beyond.

I'm glad you enjoyed it. I watched it 3 times and still felt they cramed to much into one story. It was definitely man of steel 2 which I wasn't crazy about either. I gave it a pass because it was an origin story and they can be difficult. I'm hoping that justice League ties everything together better. I think zach is great with a camera but weak on story telling. I have high hopes though with dc bringing in a comic writer. I love his stuff especially the green lantern story arcs.

I liked it alot, unrated version was even better and longer. Explained alot of the beef you had with different scenes. I'm also a fan of this angry superhero genre because life is tough right now and adults have to make difficult decisions everyday. What I like the most about these DC movies is that it represents real people making real choices who just happen to have superpowers or superfriends. For example I think it'd be great for Wonder Woman to have a period during her movie but still have to go to work/fight some alien because real women fight aliens all the time lol. Let's leave Marvel for the kiddies who wanna watch shit blow upwhile people run around in shiny suits. DC's for adults, and that's the way it's supposed to be.
