‘Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice’ (2016)
I’m not one of the fans who can forgive Batman v Superman. Comics break rules. Heroes die. The good guys can’t save everyone. And they even fight each other. Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice comes from that inspired place, but it hijacks it. What it doesn’t understand is a fight isn’t enough to make a movie. The fight must emerge from the movie, not the other way around. Director Zack Snyder can’t wait to cut to the chase. He’s not interested in storytelling. He wants to blow everything up and admire the spectacle.
