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!

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.
The review vlogs I've watched thus far have stated the main issues are the scene cut choices, overall story, and lack of motivation for most of the characters involved sans Batman. Also, most reviews I've watched hated Eisenberg as Lex and said he was basically Nicolas Cage as a Mad Scientist. They all, however, say that Affleck absolutely kills it as Batman.
Hahah Nic Cage as a mad scientist oh DC you guys are idiots. The best part is playa, Golgo etc. have vehemently defended the choice who looks outright terrible just at face value.
I also defended the choice to cast Ben affleck and laughed at the over reactions when this was first announced. I'm like a modern day prophet.

John Campea says that Gal Gadot is serviceable, but not great in the role of WW; though he like me, was never excited about her casting choice to begin with.
And Lex being bad? Yah, most reviews I've seen/heard state he's over the top and bad.
Funny cause half of the reactions from fans/audiences was that Jesse Lex was great. That includes John Campea.
But I guess the haters will cling onto "Critical Consensus" now. They must be so relieved now after going quiet through the period of overwhelming positive reactions from fans and audiences.
Originally posted by Darth ThorRT around 40 percent. You made your bed now lie in it. He seemed over the top from the previews and he looked awful. That's called failing the eye test and now the reviews are matching most people's initial thoughts on the casting choice.

Originally posted by Firefly218From what I hear about it parts of the movie are REALLY good. But it's the first third of the movie; as well as some pretty poor writing that really derails it. Also, Lex and Doomsday are, like I feared; the worst parts of the movie.
Wow it's getting even worse reviews than MoS...
I'm hoping I like it when I go to see it on Saturday, but some of the reviews (now Collider and some other related affiliates. Waiting on Screen Junkies) that I trust have been mixed (6-7/10) to bad (2/5 to 5/10). A lot of people seem to be hung up on the fact that the film is seemingly humorless and lacks 'fun' which I don't have an issue with. The Raid didn't have humor pretty much at all and it was amazing and pretty much universally praised. I think people may be holding DC's film to a bad standard that all superhero films need to be family friendly, but the plot/story complaints are a bit worrisome.
Originally posted by CPT Space BombSnyder always has visually striking imagery and great action but it rarely seems to result in an actually good movie. 300, sucker punch and MoS are all shit imo, so if this movie follows I will no longer have faith in him to do justice to justice league... I hope I'm wrong though.
