CPT is one of those who just listens to critics. He's already made up his mind about this.
Sad that over 1 night everybody has quickly forgotten the overwhelmingly positive praise this was getting from fans and audiences. The power of critics on the weak minded... It's like a Jedi Mind trick..

Guess the whole internet is in on this barker
I will judge for myself soon. And at least try to enjoy the Batman parts.
Actually Golgo pointed out from day 1 critics generally don't like Snyder. Critics generally do have their own politics going on.
But ignoring that, why are you listening to the reviews of critics/press over audience/fan reactions? Why have you already decided the only good thing about this will be Batman, when audiences have been praising Wonder Woman and Jesse Lex as well?
Originally posted by -Pr-And yeah, it can't be worse than Superman Returns.
The same Superman Returns which may I remind you all was Praised by Critics.
From everything that I have read and from the footage I have seen, I believe that I will be entertained by the movie but I will also find issues with it. I despised MOS so I'm hoping Snyder does somewhat better here.
All things said, even if its the car wreck some people are saying, i'll still have to watch.
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”
- Theodore Roosevelt
and its so damn true too
Stuckmann gave BVS a C+. He said it wasn't a bad movie, but some of the setups were forced. He thought Ben, Gal, and Irons were fantastic as well as the action scenes. Said Eisenberg and Cavill were fine and not terrible. I generally like and agree with his stuff, so this kind of sucks.

As I suspected.**** all this movie spam though. They should get a Batman series from the guys doing Marvel Netflix. Though Batfleck might not agree to that.
And also put animated Batman back on Netflix.
There is The Batman (other cartoon from early 2000's or so) that's on there now, but it's rather meh compared to the original animated series, though still enjoy it in certain areas.
Sigh....this, if true, REALLY sucks. This is going to be a movie SPOILER so don't look if you don't want to know....
Spoiler:
It seems not only did Snyder hear the criticism of Superman's willingness to kill.....he embraced it...in the opposite direction.Apparently, both Superman AND Batman kill criminals in this movie.....kill them. Supposedly there is a terrorist with a gun to Lois's head and instead of disabling the guy Superman just kills him. This is really pathetic and I'm pissed at Snyder for this. I guess he wants this dark, bleak world of his to be just that....even with World's Finest.

I hate his reviews.

Watched Stuckmann and Jahns reviews this morning. They're both guys I generally trust, but I'm still reserving judgment until I see the final movie.What cautious optimism I had is fading though.
Don't those guys generally agree with critical consensus? Except they just make jokes out of the movies faults?
Fan reaction is still strong for this movie. That doesn't change due to critics slamming it (apart from those who get brainwashed by critics).
Still I agree with being "cautiously" optimisitic at this point.
Because it seems to be a Hate it or Love it divisive film.

Who are these people BTW? I for one don't give a shit about what a movie scores on RT.
It's a nice thing if critics like it, but only fools let critics decide for them.
I mean TDKR also has a ridiculously high score on RT, and you can't tell me that film wasn't met by mixed response from audiences.
Also Superman Returns was praised by critics, but who goes on about that? No one. Because the movie sucked and was a financial failure to boot. The fans spoke through their wallet and didn't care what praise the critics gave it.
No end credit scene in any of the screenings so far:
"Perhaps this is Zack Snyder's way of further separating DC films from the Marvel Cinematic Universe that is known to add such scenes at the end of their films"
^ Lol he probably shouldn't be trying to separate them!

Joblo.com has given the movie a 5/10.
Be warned, there are spoilers in that review.
