Introduction: Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice is directed by Zack Snyder. It stars Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, Jesse Eisenberg, and Gal Gadot.

Synopsis: Fearing the actions of Superman are left unchecked, Batman takes on the man of steel, while the world wrestles with what kind of a hero it really needs. With Batman and Superman fighting each other, a new threat, Doomsday, is created by Lex Luthor. It’s up to Superman and Batman to set aside their differences along with Wonder Woman to stop Lex Luthor and Doomsday from destroying Metropolis.

Review: Batman vs Superman is a big let down and a crime against comic book fans. With a convoluted plot, pacing issues, shoehorning and so many unwanted elements with god awful editing and a complete miscast of Lex Luthor ruins the movie. The movie tries to be more comic visuals accurate and forgets to make a good story. Despite the negatives the movie does have an outstanding performance by Ben affleck in portraying Batman with a mesmerizing score and Wonder woman being the best part of the whole movie. Zack Snyder stills proves he can make breathtaking comic visuals but fails at the story.

Recommendation: In the end Batman v Superman : Dawn of Justice is a big teaser trailer for Justice League.
