4. Superman is Characterless
HUGE, MAJOR SPOILERS FOR BvS, SERIOUSLY, DON’T READ ANY MORE OF THIS ENTRY AND SKIP TO THE NEXT ONE IF YOU DON’T WANT THE ENDING MAJORLY SPOILED FOR YOU. WARNING YOU NOW.
Superman’s characterization in this film appears to be “stares at thingsâ€. The only character arc he goes through is from living to dead.
When I talked about how it felt like this movie was a total disservice to Superman, a friend who liked the movie slightly more than I did responded, “Well, it’s not really his movie.â€
…
HIS NAME IS IN THE #*$ING TITLE!!! God forgive me if I wanted to see some characterization for Superman in Batman v SUPERMAN.
Admittedly, Man of Steel was much much worse to the character than this was, but just because bad is better than terrible don’t make it good.
Look, I’ve given up on getting a good Superman movie out of this franchise. When they killed him off at the end, all I could think was that they were putting the character out of his misery finally. Good night, sweet prince, hopefully they’ll leave you in the ground.
