1) But Still Better Than Man of Steel (Probably)
One thing all the early reviews agree on is that the movie is better than its divisive predecessor Man of Steel. Well, nearly all of them.
Rolling Stone thought the BvS was “better than Man of Steel but below the high bar set by Nolan’s Dark Knight… the stuff that DC comics dreams are made of.” On the other hand, /Film commented: “I personally liked Man of Steel better, but I’m guessing I will be in the minority on this one.”
Clearly, BvS hasn’t received the most glowing reaction ever. However, on its own terms, it is clearly a good sign that the films of the DCEU are improving as they go on, even if they are still receiving mixed reviews. Arguably, the real test of a movie is how much audiences take to it, and that’s one thing that we won’t know until after Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice hits theatres.
