i hated the movie when i first saw it. ihave watched once since then and its not hated anymore just disappointment. the movie doesn't do enough for me to empathize with superman or batman. they kept on making decisions that in my opinion don't service the characters but just to move the plot forward.
My thought exactly. They wanted to put too many things in it. the decision taken by the characters are forced, to me.
i can understand people been afraid of superman and from what was shown in the movie, he didn't care people were scared and he didnt care that he was been blamed for what happened in africa. of course people can always misread intentions but at least talk to the people.
Same thought. Superman was so out of character that I even considered, and am still considering, that this Man of Steel is going to end up being Ultraman somehow, somewhen.
The best thing in the movie was batmans fight in the warehouse just great great action. the other batman parts were hit or miss for me. I did enjoy this take on alfred he was the highlight of the movie for me.
Same for me. Alfred was a THE highlight.
Lois is a great character from the book but such a waste here. the bullet plot went nowhere, felt like just had to have her in the film somehow and gave her a weak plot.
Actually Lois Lane is one of my top fav character. I said back in the day that if C.Nolan could put a good Catwoman and a good bat/cat relationship the movie would be great.The depiction was good and the Dark Knight Rises was good.
The same, for MoS, I thought that if they can treat Lois Lane well, the movie will be solid. For me, Lois is almost empty. But in BvS it's evenworse, she's useless. And it hurts me because all those tender moment with Clark were a chance to touch me. I was not moved at all.
the fight with doomsday and fight before between bats and sups was underwhelming for me. i think the slow burn of the movie didnt help with that.supes death wasnt heartfelt. i should have been in tears but i just indifferent.
Same here. I should have been in tears for God's sake. showing Doomsday in the trailer was not the brightest idea either. Henry Cavill was touching when Clark decides to sacrifice himself, but somehow I was indifferent. I think it's because most decision from the characters, like you said, were motivated by going further in the plot and not for them. So in this moment, I didn't feel anything for Clark's death.
In the end, I notice how a lot of your views are similar to mine. It can't be a coincidence but it's funny.
To answer this thread's question, I have seen it twice and it was a mistake. I could not bear the second time. So I sometimes go back to MoS to put me back in the mood of Henry Cavill's Superman, which I like pretty much.
