I saw Batman vs Superman last night...

All of that, however, paled in comparison to the ending.  What a kick in the gnads to the audience after they led you to make an emotional invstment in the final act.  Then, instead of having the balls to see it all the way through, they say "gotcha" and roll the credits because, hey, we've got x number of movies to crank out the next decade to pad our coffers and keep pace with Marvel.

You know, critics aren't infallible.  But, when they all point out the same issues with a movie and tell you it's not good, you might want to listen.  And, I went in without having read a single review.  My mistake.

Save your money and wait for the Wonder Woman movie they tease you with in this hot mess.  That looks like it could be decent.  This isn't worth $12.50 or, frankly, the 150 minutes of your life you'll waste.

This........this is exactly why I'm waiting for it to come out on DVD.  Looking more towards the Suicide Squad than this 'hot karl' of a movie.
