Is it? It was boring the whole way through, whereas TLJ was only boring for the first 90 minutes or so. But TLJ had dumb plot contrivances in an already weak script. So is 2.5 hours of boring in a dumb, rushed, mostly straightforward manner worse than mostly boring with some decent scenes near the end if everything before that was complete utter nonsense?

How do you weight these factors when reviewing a movie?

I saw the extended cut of batman vs Superman and it's literally one of the worst movies I've ever seen tbh.

I keep hearing people say it was actually an improvement, but my only thought is "how does adding 30 more minutes to an already bloated, boring movie improve it?"

BvS was a trainwreck on every level. TLJ was better than that shitheap.

I have a signature. Apparently this is important, but I still don't have my secret cool kid decoder ring yet.

It's like upgrading from a 4/10 movie to an underwhelming 6/10 flick at best tbqh.

TLJ is still better contrary to the internet neckbeard backlash around it lately.

That would have actually been a way cooler movie. Like if it was revealed leia had been training with the force the past 30 years and was a badass master and just went ham on the FO.

nah, I think you're being too forgiving of highly paid professional filmmakers and scriptwriters who can't put a coherent story together. Just because it had a flashy fight near the end doesn't make the first 90 minutes or so suddenly bearable

Lol I understand how those things work, I do them for a living.

It was a meh movie at the worst. There's legit issues to have with it, and it's a matter of opinion, but exaggerating and pretending it's worse than the prequels and some awful movie on-par with BvS is ridiculous
