People bitched to much honestly. Affleck is a great actor and director. And he was a good Batman. It’s not Affleck’s fault that the script sucked.
Most people failed to realize, Synder wasn’t going for the Addam West loving Batman, but Bob Kane Batman. A Batman that carried a gun, and snap people’s neck with a bat kick.
BatmanVSuperman, and Justice League had many problem, Affleck’s acting was not one of them.
Also, people to think day are still in the Marvel mindset, where every 5 seconds there needs to be joke. Those are the same people that claims Thor Ragnarok is one of the best cinematic comic adaptions they’ve seen in a while.
He wasn't better than Christian Bale, but he's at least No. 2 for live action actors, I'd say. I never had a problem with his casting, and he certainly wasn't the reason the DCEU ran aground: Geoff Johns & company kept hiring the wrong people to direct, and they rushed things to get the Justice League movie out. That set them back years, and maybe they play second to Marvel Studios forever, now.

I'm partial to Christian Bale. He's the definitive live action Batman to me.
I like Keaton’s Batman the best, where as I like Kilmer’s Bruce Wayne the best.
Keaton was the dark vigilante, where as Kilmer was the good looking brooding Bruce Wayne.
I think Bale had a fusion of the 2, and that’s why his portrayal of Bruce and Batman resonated so much.

He was a good Batman, It's just that the movies that he was in weren't that great.

I hate how people seem to ignore Batman Begins, When they complain about his voice for the next two movies.
