10. More Dreary Sadness

So I actually factually got a migraine halfway through this movie. I get them on an infrequent basis, so I don’t THINK the movie caused it. But thankfully for me migraines are worsened by bright lights and colors and I was sitting through this movie, which has neither.

BvS continues on the color palate MOS established. That being grey, dark dark blue, and black. And I guess dark crimson washed out with grey.

A friend who I saw the film with said it looked like it was in sepia tone. When I originally wrote that last sentence, I didn’t type “said”, I typed “sad” because the subconscious effect this movie has on me is impressive.

BvS is self-serious to the point of being self-fellating. It can’t bare to poke fun at itself, other than in a number of “jokes” you can count on your fingers, all of which feel like they were written by an angsty 13-year-old. But then, so does the rest of the movie.
