Dawn of Justice

Seen, seen, seen!

I went early to the cinemas hoping to beat the large crowds. Boy, was I wrong! Just to buy tickets, there was a long queue and guess what? The queue was for the 3 pm showing. The 12:20 pm showing was sold out.

Well, after coming this far, I had no choice but to wait till 3 pm.

Was it worth it? Especially after my earlier blog saying that everyone should go and watch the movie.

Yes and No.

Yes because it serves up an action fest, the battle we have always wanted to see.

Batman vs Superman

Alien vs Man

Day vs Night

Son of Krypton vs Bat of Gotham

The battle was what we have always wanted to see on the big screen right from when we were little kids arguing about who will win in a fight between Batman and Superman. I remember when my friend Yemi Ariyo first told me he read a comic where Batman defeated Superman. I was like “wow, brains over brawn”. Anyways, I digress.

Just like the title suggested, the movie was about the events that led to the brawl and the eventual outcome. Also we got served sneak previews of the other Justice League members.

The “no” was because ultimately there were fault lines in the story telling; biggest goof I can remember now was how the word, “Martha” ended the biggest combat in comic history. In the heat of battle, just yelling the name of batman’s mother was enough to end the battle. “Rolling my eyes”.

Enough said. Watch it and draw your own conclusions.

I am giving out a free movie ticket to the first person to post the answer to this question:

Who is the Aqua man's equivalent in the marvel world?
