Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016) - “Living for the Batman” Series

After 5+ years of endless online discourse regarding this film’s quality and what it means, it’s time to revisit this superhero epic directed by Zack Snyder.  In case the title didn’t already convey this, this film presents us with a burgeoning conflict between Batman (Ben Affleck) and Superman (Henry Cavill) as they both attempt to protect the citizens of their respective home cities, Gotham City and Metropolis.  But throwing a monkey wrench into both of their plans are the machinations of the evil Lex Luthor played by Jesse Eisenberg and along the way, we also spend time with Lois Lane (Amy Adams) and a mysterious artifacts curator played by Gal Gadot….When we’re not seeing disturbing images both on the ground and flashing (pun intended) through the mind of Affleck’s Bruce Wayne.  Let’s revisit what works and what doesn’t work about the film which launched a thousand “Martha” memes!SHOUT OUT: WITH NOTHING TO SAY PODCASTHost: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene Gershonhttps://livingforthecinema.com/#livingforthecinema #moviereviews #batman #batmanvssuperman #benaffleck #henrycavill #jesseeisenberg #galgadot #zacksnyder #amyadamsSend us Fan MailSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/
