As every normal human being would know, one of the biggest superhero movies just hit the movies this weekend. I'm a true DC fan, so I'll try my best to not give a biased review. I've been excited about this movie for about two years, Batman is my favorite superhero of all time and I just respect DC more since their heroes aren't insanely overpowered. But, below I'm going to give my opinions. The good, the bad, and the better!
cons:
Firstly, I thought the plot was rushed. But, as I told a friend of mine, the ONLY way that they could've covered the plot thoroughly was to make multiple movies. Although I love going to the movies to see my favorite superheroes to save the day year after year, I am NOT trying to have this series dragged out until 2030 (don't even think Ben Affleck has the much juice left).
This movie wasn't "action filled"-but, it had enough to make me feel better when i left. A lot of people have been comparing it to Marvel. But, me personally, I don't think they should be compared. DC's aim was not to imitate or outdo marvel, they went about carrying out the master piece with a whole different method and plan and succeeded in my book. I'm getting off topic, this is supposed to be cons, so let's get to the pros!

pros:
I'll keep this as close to a non-spoiler review as much as I can. But, DC-you're a genius! The plot layout has been set perfectly! The refernces throughout the movie had my mind wondering so much that I'm already looking forward to the next films. This was Easter Egg heaven! The common "movie goer" probably was lost. I totally understand how someone who only watches superhero movies who has 0 cares for the story lines or comic references prefers a Marvel movie. But hey, everyone can't be geek squad!
ben affleck
Some of you guys are going to come at my neck about this statement, but...
BEN AFFLECK GAVE CHRISTIAN BALE A RUN FOR HIS MONEY!!!!!!!!
He did it without his own movie, and hell-without a damn villain until the end of the movie. Let's be real, no one became a Christian Bale fan until Dark Knight. The Villains in the dark knight series honestly are what attracted most of the fans. Not saying Christian wasn't great, but Ben was perfect. He was angry, an asshole, smooth.,. and HE KICKED ASS! Like, video game style. Well done Ben, way to make non-believers into believers (myself included).

lex & ww
There were probably more haters for the cast of wonder woman than for bruce wayne origianblly. But, she delivered as well! Not as rough and tough as the comic and cartoon version, but her sex appeal won me over.
Lex was cool, a bit too goofy for me. But he got more serious as the show continued. He gets a B- from me.

superman
Superman was Super, not too many complaints. I liked his performance, I'm one of the only people who liked Man of Steel so my opinion might not be to credible here so I'll keep his review short.
