Batman vs superman detailed review (spoilers)

The film Batman vs superman had a lot of controversy on how Batman would be a match for superman. While it is thought that it was done wrong the majority see the threat of death in the family for superman as a reasonable excuse. The character of lex was one well redeveloped with nods towards  heath ledgers joker with the whole oldest lie in America and sudden outburst of energy. The death of superman however was not handled with care as they hint a resurrection at the end ruining the possibility of more hype to see wether he was truly dead in the next film. The characters of flash, cyborg and Aquaman where well set up ready for the justice league but again wonder woman was under-developed. Overall the film was a success with the exception with this gun wielding killer Batman who brands people like a socio pathe. It still keeps us excited for the justice league with a seventh member still to be confirmed. There only to wait now.

Released:25th March 2016 Bbfc rating: 12a The setup for the dc expanded universe has come and it was not what was expected. There was always going to be the problem in the film of reasons to get these two to fight and up think it is done very well. It takes aspects from man of steel that help set up the universe such as the flash forward to apocalypse. The music helps bring a dark and depressing atmosphere allowing the story to evolve. Ben Affleck does well as well as the other newcomer to the franchise Jessie Eisenberg as Alexander Luthor. Zac Snyder has done his best to pull off this project but left areas with fans unpleased. He sets up a a fact where Bateman is a killer and wonder woman was just there needing more development. However his was never going to be easy and was certainly enjoyable near the end. My rating:7.6/10 Contains violence, threat and moderate use of bad language. I will also post an in depth review soon.

  Released:26th October 2015 Bbfc rating:12 (varies to 15) The 5th spy film to be released in 2015 and only slightly manages to carry the genre as the hype was overdone for the film. The film is somehow not as good as sky fall and is easily seen as it brings nothing new and threw us at a villain we already knew instead of the mystery in the film. The bautista was a waste d character available for so much more but limited to a few lines of speech.overall the film is trying to hard to be too much with missed opportunity but still manages to keep you entertained. My rating: 7.0/10 Contains violence, mild language, threat and scenes that may disturb younger viewers.
