Pretty much exactly how I thought
this movie was going to look. In all honestly
this was a movie that’s plot wasn’t all that hard to predict given the initial
premise of the film, coupled with Warner Brothers announcing a slew of their
own superhero films to rival that of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. You would have an initial act that would
introduce Batman into this universe as well as continuing the Superman
storyline from Man of Steel, followed by a second act where they would meet and
initially argue and fight, (I’m guessing we’ll get at least two brawls between
them before the end of the movie), before realizing that what they’re doing is
stupid just in time to team up against whatever insanity Lex Luthor has cooking
up.
` In all honesty though, despite how
obvious the plot of this movie was going to go and the still awful grey filters
everything still seems to be shot in, this movie looks pretty fun. Ben Affleck looks like he’ll defy initial
expectations over his casting as the Caped Crusader, the interactions between
the two seem solid enough, Jesse Eisenberg is clearly not the Lex Luthor that I
grew up with but I am digging the whole mad scientist thing he has going for
him and this version of Doomsday actually seems pretty cool. Granted I do kind of hate the fact that
Doomsday is in this movie but at least it appears to have an origin story that
is grounded in the universe. While I’m
not fully on board with the D.C. Cinimatic Universe given how I personally
hated Man of Steel, this movie has my
full attention and I personally cannot wait for next March.
So until next time, please follow
the site, like the Facebook Page and follow me on Twitter. Until then…I sadly don’t have a closing pun
that would work for this situation.
