Storyline
Following his titanic struggle against General Zod, Metropolis has been razed to the ground and Superman is the most controversial figure in the world. While for many he is still an emblem of hope, a growing number of people consider him a threat to humanity, seeking justice for the chaos he has brought to Earth. As far as Bruce Wayne is concerned, Superman is clearly a danger to society. He fears for the future of the world with such a reckless power left ungoverned, and so he dons his mask and cape to right Superman's wrongs. The rivalry between them is furious, fueled by bitterness and vengeance, and nothing can dissuade them from waging this war. However, a dark new threat arises in the form of a third man: one who has a power greater than either of them to endanger the world and cause total destruction!!!

Trivia:
In the final trailer, Batman was shown to have a fighting style that is more acrobatic and aggressive. It can be compared to the fighting of the Batman: Arkham games, and to how he would fight in the comics. See more »

So, I saw BvS at an early screening, and it was easily the best
superhero movie of all time, even better than "The Dark Knight." I went
into the theater with already really high expectations, and the movie
was even better than I expected. Yeah, the movie is pretty dark. It's
darker than the Nolan trilogy, so that should give you a pretty good
taste of what's to come. There are a few jokes here and there. Ben
Affleck's performance as Batman was AMAZING. The best Batman yet. This
one can actually fight, unlike Keaton's Batman who relied nearly solely
on gadgets, and Bale's Batman whose fighting looked really dumb. For
real, though, Affleck needs to win an Oscar for Best Actor. Eisenberg's
performance as Lex Luthor was brilliant. Cavill's performance as
Superman was pretty much the same as his performance in Man of Steel.
His performance as Clark Kent was very accurate to the comics. Every
other member of the cast did great, too, but those were the
performances that stood out (Irons was great as Alfred, too).
The movie is ACTION PACKED. The fight between Batman and Superman was
amazing. The way the fight was choreographed was beyond anything we've
ever seen before. It's any fanboy's dream come true. As for the length
of the fight: The true fight is longer than the Hulkbuster vs. Hulk
battle in "Avengers: Age of Ultron." The reason I say TRUE fight is
because there are technically two fights (sort of). One is a Batmobile
chase (the end of it was the "Do You Bleed?" scene we saw featured in
Conan), and the other one is the Dark Knight Returns-reminiscent fight
(yeah, the one where Batman fights Superman in the armor). I'm not
going to spoil who wins, but they both throw some pretty devastating
punches at one another.
In the middle of writing this review, I forgot to mention Gal Gadot's
Wonder Woman. I was a little worried about the accent, but she managed
to hide it so that she gave us the Wonder Woman performance we've all
been waiting for. She was pretty damn good (not as good as Eisenberg or
Affleck, but good).
No crucial part of the film was revealed before the screenings or the
movie's release. The visuals look amazing (except for one particular
scene, where the CGI looked like trash). Overall, definitely a 10/10
film.
