Movie Review: Batman V Superman- Dawn of Justice

 

batman-v-superman-dawn-justice

Fearing that the actions of Superman are left unchecked, Batman takes on the Man of Steel, while the world wrestles with what kind of a hero it really needs.

PROS

  • Excellent performance by the whole cast ,especially Jesse Eisenberg who played the role of lex luther.
  • The action sequences were exquisite and realistically done . Visual effects were amazing .
  • Very interesting story-line that leaves you wanting more.

CONS

  • The pacing of the movie in the beginning is quite slow .
  • If , for some reason, you have never heard of Superman or Batman . The you may not fully understand the characters and their motives , because the heroes were not properly introduced to first time viewers . The movies goes with the assumption that you already know who they are .

FAVORITE QUOTES

Batman: “Tell me , Do you bleed? …….. you will !”

Lex Luther: “if God is all-powerful, He cannot be all good. And if He is all good, then He cannot be all-powerful. And neither can you be.”

Batman: “I bet your parents taught you that you mean something, that you’re here for a reason. My parents taught me a different lesson, dying in the gutter for no reason at all… They taught me the world only makes sense if you force it to.”

CONCLUSION

It is something many of us thought about as kids growing up reading comic and watching cartoons of the biggest,most popular, superheros . Who would win in a fight between Batman and Superman ?  Well , we finally get that question answered !!

Batman V Superman is an incredible movie , i enjoyed every bit of it  . Admittedly i was skeptical about Ben Affleck playing the role of Batman , but he did an excellent job. The movie was well balanced , in a sense that, both Batman and Superman were given time to develop their characters and build their stories before they collided .

Jesse Eisenberg stole the show , his performance of Lex Luthur was simply phenomenal. He was the perfect villain that you will love to hate .  Gal Gabot also put up a tremendous performance as the mysterious Dianna Prince/Wonder Woman. 

The movie highlights the tendency humans , in general , have to fear what they do not understand and what they cannot control. Even if somebody appears to be very sincere in his actions, one would always think there may be an ulterior motive . It also touches on topics such as hero-worshiping of our role models and people in the spotlight .

A lot of room was left for a sequel or two , or three . This is a must-watch movie for all fans of super-hero movies .

It is currently showing at local cinemas .

  1. The worst enemy of fear is fear itself, perceptions about other people shouldn’t make most these pf caders remain confined to a world of fear, especially for change, it’s always important to try something new, who thought batman would one day meet superman? So fellow Zambians come August let us show our ingenuity like making our political scenery have a new look through HH, just like what these Hollywood film makers have done.
