Yeah I still very much enjoy the extended BvS. The cinema cut was a headache though and I think that's all a lot of people remember... the editing was awful, it NEEDED the extra runtime that it had on home release to be a coherent film, but I get why they couldn't have a 3.5 hour marathon in cinemas. Although I have heard that End Game might be hitting the 3h mark which I personally am buzzing about

.
The only overall problems for me were the downright irredeemable "Martha" scene. It is DUMB, they should have gone another way with it, left the name out of it and just had Supes saying "plz if you kill me you have to save my mother" and it would be otherwise the same scene (Batman realises that Superman isn't just this super powerful alien threat, but also a regular man with a family). Making it about their mums having the same name falls so flat

.
Also ... sigh... Eisenberg's Lex Luthor. It was still a bad call, in characterisation and casting. He would have made a ****ing
excellent Riddler playing it exactly the same. Luthor, they should have made a charismatic smiling-sociopath like Smallville Lex.
The film otherwise flows well (extended) and is stunning
