Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice

I went to see Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and for the most part I liked it.  The story begins after the events and battle with General Zod in Man of Steel make Superman a controversial character.   Bruce Wayne sees Superman as a threat, and Clark Kent decides to expose Batman by publishing articles in the Daily Planet.  Lex Luther uses the resulting mistrust between Batman and Superman to manipulate them into a battle, hoping to destroy them both.

There is certainly a lot of action. The big battle at the end is impressive and the special effects are well done.  Ben Affleck did a better job with the Batman character than I expected.  I'm not a big Ben Affleck fan, but that is a matter of personal preference.  I like Alfred's character and the interaction between him and Bruce/Batman. Jeremy Irons does a good job with all of his characters though.  I also like Lois Lane's (Amy Adams) character, and the interaction between her and Clark/Superman is well done.

However, the way the beginning of the movie goes from Gotham to Metropolis to the Indian Ocean is somewhat confusing.  I like the Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot) character, but was confused about how she fit into the story (other than to help out in the big bad battle at the end) too.  It is probably a matter of trying to put too much information into a two or two and a half hour movie.

Overall, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is a good, not great, movie.  I may opt to just wait for any future Batman/Superman films to come out on DVD.
