Totally hated it..with all the CGI and lights going around...He might be the worst actor to play the Cape crausder of gotham, he's not a bad actor far from it, but everything about the movie was off...Justice League was a bit okay and manageable...but Dawn of Justice was a plethora of hot mess.
Really! I’d choose BvS anytime over JL, and a lot of people would agree that he’s still the one who’s manage to balance the Bats and Wayne personality

Knives out :10/10.
Makes me remember murder on the orient express. Very twisted and unpredictable! Stellar performance from Daniel Craig and Chris Evans, though I don't like the fact that the old man gave all his wealth to the nanny leaving out his own family, that's heartless of him.
The first daughter took after him, so I was shocked she was excluded from the will..
I thought the old man was harsh too on his son who was taking care of his company....

You in all honesty enjoyed Dawn of Justice?

Well it was messed up but far better than Justice League piece of shite!

Don't know maybe cos I watched Ultimate Edition of BvS and not theatrical. 'Twas 3hrs long.
The writing was piss poor.

You talking bout the movie as a whole or Batfleck's suit or portrayal?

Worst actor to play Batman? Seriously?

For the writing, he was great at Batman's portrayal. It's only the Bruce Wayne character I'd say was patchy.

The suit was Dope, fight scenes awesome.
A bit harsh with the worst actor thing, that's why i stated he's not necessary a bad actor... He's potrayal of Batman was a tad ok, but everything else about the movie was off and his portrayal didn't save it... there's a reason its 28% on RT.

Subjective is the Keyword here, absolutely loved JL way more than BvS...The Fight scenes trump that of BVS...the scene where JL was taking on Supes trump all the scenes in BVS to me tho... perhaps...the only thing that put me off with JL was the CGI removal of supes moustache..it was so cringe and obvious.

Ultimate edition was even the worst, it just elongated the toture...lemme paraphrase...I hated Ben Affleck's suit, his portrayal was a tad ok, couldn't save the movie all in all a failed project.

It's the writing that was poor. That's what is to be blamed.

Also the Killing of Superman so early in the Franchise that was it's main Achilles heel. Nobody liked that kill off.
Moreso, the Doomsday thingy and Lex Luthor portrayal and how he used Zod's body for Doomsday creation.
Peeps never really liked Superman's bleak outlook, no hope.

I will take BvS anyday anytime over Josstice League. It's an epic piece of trash. I don't know between it and Suicide Squad which is worse. angry

Well I’m of the opinion that no fight scene in the entire DCEU comes close to the warehouse scene in BvS, it trumps them all

LMAO. BvS has the BEST fight scenes in the whole DCEU. The only one who comes close and probably take it is Man of Steel, distant next is Aquaman.

The Superman vs the league scenes were the poorest and most stupidest I've ever seen. It was pretty annoying to me. How the hell can Supes take on Wonder Woman, Flash, Aquaman, Cyborg all at once. Only Wonder Woman is enough to whoop him seriously, talk more of Flash. They made Flash look stupid and weak.

lol watched it with all it's defects but greatly enjoyed with a plot that actually looked like it was going somewhere....BVS was all over the place.

Ready or Not 7/10

Another comedy passing itself off as horror. grin

The film started off very well by establishing an ominous feeling and initially kept me on edge, but midway through, it totally lost its way and went from scary and dreadful to shallow and hilarious.

They had a very good material and strong premise that could have blown anyone away if they had maintained the feeling they established in the beginning, but they had to through in some useless gags and follow overused horror tropes.

That ending was just ridiculous, this could have been a comedy masterpiece if they had stuck to the comedy aspect. grin

You dey mind her wacky opinion?

A person which gives a 10/10 to a movie she claims to understand well, despite mixing up the characters and can't tell which one is which one from the said film.

How the hell, do you want her to understand a film she gave 3/10 rating she simply don't understand? grin grin

honey, I'm the queen of DC on nairaland and I can tell you Adkins would have made a badass batman. The guy is not short, he is alot more than average at 5 ft 10. I really want to see him in the spot light, the attention he deserve. The major reason Pattison was chosen is because of his box office profile. Mainly his performance in twilight. If Chadwick boseman, Chris hemsworth, Tom Holland and alot more super hero movie actors could fit in, then Adkins should regardless.
Minemrys, come and see
Chisos of Ajegunle. Twilight kwa? As in Edward and Bella Twilight? Is why Pattinson was considered for the role of Batman. Chei!! Stop smoking cheap igbo, you people will not hear.

There is actually a sub-genre of horror called comedy-horror

My brother, na fight scenes you dey find because no way in hell Josstice League's convoluted re-re-written story is better than BvS' story. And even at that, the Trinity Vs Doomsday >>>>>>>>> any fight scene from Josstice League. Lemme not even mention the warehouse rescue.

Minemrys, come and see
1st thing 1st, Adkins is British. He can't pull off an American accent convincingly. He'd be great doing the stunts but he can't act. He really can't. I've seen lots of his films, he plays same character in all of them. Same facial expression, he reads his line rather than act them. Trust me, you d0n't want him playing Bruce wayne.

I'm not in support of Scott Adkins playing Batman but giving the fact that he's British as a reason is just laughable. Robert Pattinson is from Florida, abi? Plus Adkins has pulled of both an American accent and a Slavic accent so this is actually a plus in his resumé

bros, read what i wrote again. Adkins can't pull off a c0nvincing American accent. Take for instance christian bale, you'd be shocked to find out he isn't american. Brits find it hard maintaining an american accent unless method actors. Trust me, Adkins accent always shows. Just like Henry Cavill. Cavill's british accent always c0mes off when he's trying to act in a cool scene. The part that'll expose him is bruce wayne. Pulling off an accent is different fr0m being c0nvincing while speaking in it.

and speaking of pattins0n, he's very much a method actor who has proven himself in various films and with various characters. Adkins hasn't. He's m0stly a martial artist. Ever asked yourself why jas0n statham hasn't played an american character b4?

then obviously, u d0n't have an ear for accents. Then you'd be c0nvinced of chiwetel ejiofor's fake nigerian accent in half of a yellow sun. Or thandie newt0n's accent's in that film.
