Dawn of Justiceis big, all right.
If its just size youre after, you wont be disappointed.
But at this point in Hollywoods superhero cycle, is that really enough?
It is worse than the widely detested Joel Schumacher Batman films, including the one with bat nipples.
Superman remains something of a work-in-progress.
Suck on that, Marvel.
Such moments are fleeting, however, and are mere filigree on Snyders real agenda of blowing stuff up.
Heavy, overbearing score thunders above it all, reinforcing the po-faced absurdity.
The film reaches for an operatic thunder and ends up with a wet, limp raspberry.
Let them pummel each other if they must; just leave us out of it.
