Possible Spoiler Filled First Reaction to BATMAN V SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE
Looks like Warner Bros. has held an early test screening for Zack Snyder's Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and it looks like one fan just couldn't stop himself from saying anything about it. It's not uncommon for a studio to hold a test screening for a film like this, but it looks like this guy decided to violate the NDA. In fact, the person used a throw-away Reddit account that he named "ViolatingNDA." That being said, we don't know for sure if this person actually did attend a screening, but if he did, he definitely had some things to say about it!
The following write up contains possible big SPOILERS, so proceed at your own risk!
“Hey DC_Cinematic, i’m using a throwaway account for obvious reasons, but I saw the movie last night! I use a website for advance screenings and I got tickets for a mystery film and it turned out to be BvS. The movie was very long, as long as TFA if I were to make a comparison. It didn’t drag though; every minute of the film was used effectively.
"Performances were all great. Jesse Eisenberg as Lex is way more complex than what the trailers show. By the end of the film, you will HATE him, but at the same time, you can’t help admire how capable this guy is. Ben Affleck as Bruce/Batman is definitely the standout performance. I was surprised/scared how different he became when he put the mask on. This Batman will come across as a villain to some viewers; he enjoys inflicting pain on criminals. There was a scene where he was branding a criminal, and he had the biggest smile on his face. I don’t know how fans will react to that, but I felt it worked with this version of the character.
"Everyone else was great too, even the new supporting characters played by Jena Malone and Scoot McNairy. Jena Malone plays a crippled Barbara Gordon. She doesn’t have much screentime, but she does make a Killing Joke reference about an amusement park incident involving her now retired father. Scoot is playing Jimmy Olsen who was injured during the events of Man of Steel. He does not blame Superman like the others, but supports him and views him as a hero. He has a popular blog about Superman.
"The third act was mindblowing. The Doomsday reveal in the trailer is just the tip of the iceberg. There is a lot of action, and I loved every moment of it. The first and second acts are the “Batman v Superman” parts of the movie, while the third act is entirely “Dawn of Justice.” You will see a fully assembled Justice League by the end of the film.
"All in all, BvS is the greatest comic book movie since The Dark Knight, and I can’t wait to see it again come March. If anyone has questions, i’ll be glad to answer.”
The biggest reveals in this brief rundown of the film are that we will get to see the fully assembled Justice League team and the identity of Jena Malone's character, which seemed to be expected from some of the fans.
Again, none of this could be true, but if it is... What do you think!?
