About 30 minutes into Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, the first question that comes to your mind is: what the hell is going on? However, you don 't give up and wait for something interesting to happen in the film. Eventually, you will leave the auditorium just satisfied with the special effects of two high-budget action sequences.
The idea of pitting Batman (Ben Affleck) against Superman (Henry Cavill) in a fist fight in itself is quite an ambitious task for any creators in the film-making business. Well, when filmmakers take on such a challenge, expectations are sky high. And this film do not live up to the expectations.
The film jumps from one subplot to the other without any clarity or purpose and towards the end what it manages to achieve is to place all the cards on the table for the sequel and leave audience high and dry.
The film can be best described as

He spends more time contemplating his purpose of existence and the collateral damages of his antics in the planet earth. In the meantime saving innocents, which is mostly just Lois Lane (Amy Adams).
The major casualty of this weak plot is, indeed, Superman. He gives an impression of a powerful alien just waiting to become a martyr. He is played and beaten up like never before in this film.
Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot) just comes around as a pretty face in couple of scenes, until the end she decides to join forces with Batman and Superman in stopping the giant deformed Krypton. Her character isn 't explored much in this film as writers Chris Terrio and David S. Goyer were much invested in setting up the stage for the big clash.
Dawn of Justice is deeply flawed. Just a bunch of heroes from DC Comics, an evil scientist, an almost unkillable antagonist and expensive special effects are not the recipes to make a hit superhero movie. More than visual effects, a strong storyline is what keeps the audience engaged, which this film clearly
With all this design comes mobility. If a hero can’t move he can’t fight crime. Batman’s suit has a cape which helps him glide through the air making him even
Keanu Reeves can be compared to Batman because they both help others because they have experienced the same events. Batman fights crime for Gotham because his parents were killed by a criminal. While Keanu donates his money to cancer research because his sister has battled leukemia for over ten years. Bruce Wayne uses Batman to hide who he is and that he is actually the one who is saving Gotham. Similarly, Keanu never attaches his name to any donations he makes to the organizations to keep from being the attention seeker.
Gifted with incredible endurance and super strength, the ability of flight, and an impeccable moral compass, Superman is the quintessential superhero that Americans of all ages have admired and looked up to since his conception in 1938. In Brad Bird’s 1999 feature animation The Iron Giant, the fifty-foot metal protagonist is no exception. Hiding out in a barn, he peers at an issue of the Superman comic book like an amused child with his eyes wide and mouth agape. His closest human companion, nine-year old Hogarth, sits before the giant and explains to him, “Sure, he’s famous now, but he started off just like you! Crash landed on Earth…he only uses his powers for good, never for evil.”
The passage is from the very first panel of the book. Bruce Wayne is no longer Batman. Bruce grew a mustache and is wearing a racing helmet with the upper face being covered. The mustache indicates the amount of time that has passed since Bruce’s retirement as Batman. However, the resemblance of the helmet as his Batman costume foreshadows the inevitable return of Bruce Wayne as Batman.
They are realistic because in spite being superheroes, Captain America and the other Avengers have human, mortal cravings. They are made of flesh and blood, they get hurt, and can be killed. They have tempers and consciences that
Val Kilmer acted as batman and the only thing that really changed was the fact that the bat suit became more muscly but he still couldn’t turn his head. Slide 12 1997- Everything went south with the release of this film. It was actually voted as one of the worst superhero films ever. I mean firstly every staunch Batman fan hates Robin
Therefore grief and sorrow are depicted over the fact that the world would never see another Superman, especially with all the good men going into hiding.
Having a character like Superman that could fly around saving people like Mattie and killing villains like Lucky Ned Pepper would have made the story completely unrealistic and people would not think this could possibly be a true
Superman runs into a bathroom and changes into a suit. Vonnegut depicts a man who tries to imagine a war as “heroic” ultimately dying in the same meaningless way as countless other soldiers to illustrate that one cannot escape from traumatic realities. Roland Weary used the illusion of heroism in order to escape from the horrors of war. This is first presented when Vonnegut describes Roland Weary, saying, “His vision of the outside world was limited to what he could see through a narrow slit” (Vonnegut 41) This was an important detail for He had been saving Billy’s life for days,cursing him,kicking him, slapping him, making him move.
Why should batman not be a Vigilante? Batman is a Vigilante, many people consider Batman a superhero. However, he should not be. Nobody should be above the law. Batman shouldn’t be above the law because he does the same thing as the police force, he could make the crime worse, and he could end up causing more destruction to the environment.
After an impressive promotion campaign including trailers with classic numbers and an original soundtrack album by Skrillex, Twenty One Pilots and the like, Suicide Squad finally opened in theaters on August 5. The hype for this movie was undeniably humongous, not only because DC hardcore fanboys expected it to be the breakthrough for DCEU with a mix of humor and action, but also movie enthusiasts had been waiting for another reimagination of Joker, together with the live-action versions of other DC beloved villains/antihero. And while it performed pretty well at the box office even without releases in the Chinese market, the quality definitely fell short of its intriguing premise. As the third installment in DC Comics cinematic universe,
The director conveys good vs evil through the use of mise-en-scene. The scene begins with a long shot in low key lighting of the Commissioner walking into interrogate the Joker, after Commissioner sits down the scene gets shot with side lighting slowly zooming into his face close up. After Commissioner leaves in changes to high key lighting with a low angle shot of batman slamming Jokers head on the table with diegetic sounds of a bang and the Joker saying “Never start with the head the victim gets all fuzzy, he can’t feel the next.” When Batman grabs Joker and shoves him against the wall there is a diegetic sound of a bang with a two-shot side on close up, then going to a close up with more diegetic sounds of bangs and then glass shattering. After glass has shattered it changes to a low angle shot of Batman’s face and a high angle shot of Jokers face with nondiegetic sound of intense
Superman?”, the conclusion of each run well done brings the same exaltation that was captured in the face of Roark in this photograph. In a similar manner, running is a selfish endeavor that benefits no one but the man or woman who runs, and it is an activity performed alone. One cannot borrow another mans legs and run. Moreover, the thoughts, words, and actions of others cannot impede the process nor defeat it, much like the Banner’s constant public attacks and Ellsworth Toohey’s more subtle plan to praise mediocracy could not defeat Roark. Likewise, neither Roark nor running allow for submission for it is an accepted fact, for both, that suffering, disappointment and struggle are all natural parts of the process.
“As a man, I 'm flesh and blood, I can be ignored, I can be destroyed; but as a symbol ... as a symbol I can be incorruptible, I can be everlasting” (Batman Begins). Batman is one of the most popular superheroes of all time.
