Another thing I really didn't like about the move was the style which was incredibly distracting. It was way too overwrought with the dramatic shots, slow motion, and heavy imagery. I felt I was watching a high budget music video without the music. Snyder kept cracking a whip to remind you about how "epic" everything was supposed to feel. It really brought you out of the experience. If you compare to Nolan's Batman movies which the first two at least are stylish when they need to be and restrained for the remainder you get the feeling that you have an egomaniacle filmmaker in Snyder who's using the superhero motif as a backdrop to remind you about his visual mastery. I found it really off-putting and again, a huge disservice to the source material. It felt like this movie was all about Snyder.
