Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (Ultimate Edition) [Blu-ray] [2016] [Region Free]

This is definitely the best way to watch this film. Those added 30-40 minutes really fills in all the disjointed plot holes and sloppy editing of the theatrical release. As with most Zack Snyder films, his absolute best work comes through when he is not limited by studio mandates and time constraints, especially when working with a solid script by Chris Terrio. This film also provides more set up for that original dark future that was depicted in Snyder's Justice League. Jesse Eisenburg's Lex Luther actually comes across as an evil genius and not a spastic twerp in a bad wig. Batfleck is phenomenal.

I really love this movie. It’s, definitely, the best of Zack Snyder’s DC films. And the 4K disc (which is the ultimate edition only) looks great!

Knowing that with great power there great respect that what I like.

Product came within a lot of time, but with a thumbprint smudge on the disk and something that looked like food residue. Was able to be wiped off and seems to work OK, but wish that that had been checked before it came to my door. Otherwise everything was fineI know a lot of people hate this film, but I can’t say enough good about it. And I’m glad I’ve got it on 4K now. Just need to get a better TV!

Awesome movie to lead up to the Snyder Cut!

It’s even better than I remembered

One of my favorite films!

Different is better

This extended cut beats the theatrical. Very collectible with the storybook packaging. Great blu-ray transfer.

Había visto el corte cinematográfico, pero los 30 minutos que añade la versión extendida merecen mucho la pena y le hacen ganar enteros a una película que ya de por sí es muy entretenida.Totalmente recomendable para los fans de DC y en especial para quienes nos ha gustado la visión de Snyder.

The movie looks great! So many things and easter eggs.I give 4 stars because delivery took so long!

Came with many scratches on the cover and damaged corners, despite having been shipped in its original shrink wrap.There's paper shreds all over the the book (mostly from the corners and some from the pages), which simultaneously serves as the Blu-Ray case. The paper is of atrocious quality.5 stars for the movie, 0 for the product.

(MINOR SPOILERS) This movie absolutely does not deserve all the negative criticism it gets. As a very keen comic reader, one who is particularly a fan of DC Comics and to be even more specific, Justice League related things, I can safely say that this movie did not disappoint. The hype was worth it. I've notice most complaints about the movie are about it being too dark in tone and a bit over crowded. Yes, it is dark but why is that a bad thing? Anyone who reads DC Comics will know that a dark tone has been a very common element to many of DC's greatest stories for nearly 30 years and especially in the last 10. With Man Of Steel, people complained that Superman was too dark and not enough of a "Good guy". This complaint continued here. Yes, Superman is supposed to be a good guy and no, he is not best known for being one of DC's darker characters but in recent years he has moved away from the old typical "I'm a big hero. I must always do what's right" thing. I personally find the perfect Boy Scout who's always right image Superman is kinda unbelievable. Comics have given his character a lot more depth and they have continued to do this with the movies with Henry Cavill. Superman IS a good guy and he DOES want to do what's right all the time but the world is not black and white and good or bad. Sometimes you have to make the best out of a bad situation. Sometimes you have to decide not what's good or bad but what's...least worst, we'll say. Superman wants to do right but in a world where there's so much bad, it's not always easy to know what's right, especially when you are a Super powered person who is both looked up to and hated by many. And as far as Clarke Kent goes, he too has a lot more depth. He is a believable character, despite being from Krypton and that is what these movies should do: bring fantasy and fiction into the real world. As for Batman? I can't say just how interested in Batman I am and always have been. I feel I know Batman like no other character meaning I really do feel like I know how Batman should be and when I see Ben Affleck in this movie, cape and cowl or suit and tie, he absolutely NAILS it. Batman is a dark character. We all have our own opinions but I feel to complain about Batman being "too dark" is like complaining about orange juice tasting like oranges. Bruce Wayne may be a billionaire but he hasn't exactly had it easy and that's no secret. Because this movie is Batman v Superman it was obvious it would have to be an older Batman. A well expirenced Batman. And again if you read, you will know that after a few years as Batman, Bruce has more than his fair share of every negative thing you could imagine happening and an older Batman has often been written as a harder character and in some cases, he has even lost his way from time to time. I didn't actually see many complaints about Ben other than people complaining about how Batman never kills but did in this movie. Well 1) Batman does not kill but HAS done. 2) Yes, (without giving too much away) he did things that might kill a person in the movie (MIGHT) but if you really look, he did it in a certain way and you can't actually prove they died at all and when death did happen, it wasn't actually intended. Ben Affleck will become the definitive Batman if he keeps going on how he is. Everything about his acting as both Bruce and Batman is perfect and his movements as Batman are spot on which has never quite been nailed before. I am very happy to call Ben Affleck Batman. As for the rest of the characters we saw introduced, I can't say much on any of them just yet because not enough was shown (it was only cameos/introductions though) but I can say a bit about Wonder Woman: Perfect. Absolutely perfect. Just like with Batman and Superman, this is exactly how I imagine Wonderwoman. The way she speaks, the way she moves, her look, everything is just brilliant and I'm VERY excited for her solo movie. I saw Lex Luthor getting a few complaints. Some said he was too crazy. I picture Lex as a genius, a bit cocky but in an intimidating kind of way and he is a bit crazy but normally his insanity is due to his obsession and hatred for Superman. I see how some say he was a bit too crazy but I think everything else was good and here's my point: This Lex is young. Younger than most versions of Lex Luthor we see. But because he is young, I think he's a bit cockier and a bit more "power mad". A young man, a genius with billions of dollars under his name who is also obsessed with Superman in a bad way and who is a bit power mad is certainly gonna have a screw or two loose. Maybe the screws will tighten with age but I don't see it as an issue either way. I really like this version of Lex. I won't go into the plot details too much to avoid spoilers but I will say one minor thing in as discreet a way I can. The whole complaint about Martha makes no sense. It wasn't stupid or cheesy. I won't say why I think that because it might spoil it but I'll just say look deeper into it if you don't see it. So here's my summary: For comic fans, this movies is if not perfect, pretty close to perfect. Sure, it might seem a bit rushed in places but c'mon, this is a movie trying to bring together 3 of DC Comics biggest characters in feature length time through a story. I think they did a great job setting up the future of the DCEU here. If you're not a comic fan, it might be a bit harder to pick up but I really don't think you'll have too difficult a time with it. Some may wanna watch it twice but I think it's easy enough to follow and to get into. It's action packed and interesting and despite what critics say, it never fails to be exciting. The critics are mostly strictly movie critics meaning they are looking at this movie not as a comic book movie, not even as a superhero movie but a movie. These same critics reviewed Marvel movies and gave great reviews but they bash BvS. Why? Because after seeing the often humorous, more light hearted movies where the heroes fight the bad guys, they think Superhero movies aren't meant to be so dark. DC Comics is and always has been darker than Marvel Comics and I and many other comic fans love both. I think it's the same with the movies but unfortunately DC came in with their cinematic universe quite late. Critics really don't know what they're talking about with this movie. They did the same to Man of Steel and Suicide Squad but most comic fans love these movies (Man of Steel didn't win over some more classic fans though but I feel it's time to move on. This is how it is.) and these movies are comic book movies after all so I think you'd be best to trust what comic fans say about superhero movies before you trust what some critic who's probably never picked up a comic in their life and is reviewing dramas and horrors and everything in between and getting paid for it. Maybe I am a bit bias but if I forget my love for comics and these characters, I can still say it's a brilliant movie. Make your own mind up at the end of the day but please don't let a critic do it.
