Ask me anything but let me just start with this.


All that horse shit with the RT reviews, only 2 criticism i found legit.
Lighting and contrast were a tad bit of an issue at times, but not a deal breaker.
This is DEFINITELY a theatrical cut. That 30 minute extended edition they discussed is exactly what this movie needs.

If i were to give it a rating i'd say roughly 7/10, not great offers a fuck load more than most cape shit films, and there were many great scenes.
If i were to guess, the extended edition might possibly fix the pacing issues (think kingdom of heaven theatrical vs directors cut) and push it to maby a 8/10, above average.

So no, this movie isnt remotely as bad as people are shitting themselves over.

So go ahead and ask me anything about the movie, and i'll try and keep spoilers to a minimum.

Is there any meme worthy material besides MMM BOYS?
>>
>It needs to be even longer
no

by the time the third dream sequence came around i knew someone at DC fucked up big time
>>
>>67414526
Probably, but the MMM BOYS bit isnt actually meme worthy.

i dare say it fit this Lex luther very damn well. He was genuinely awesome.
However since its Jessi Eisenberg whatever i cant say he's THREATENING but he's very interesting and believably crooked.

>>
>>67414562
I didnt mind the dream sequences. I think they served their purposes well. I dont need ANOTHER dream sequence, but some scenes did need to be longer because they were obviously cut for theater time.

But they did leave in a lot of calmer quiet moments so it helped keep the movie from being obnoxious. I think a lot of those moments and dialouge exchanges needed to be a tad bit longer.
>>
Honest question, I don't know shit about comics but how can Batman put on a legitimate fight vs Superman? Superman could just melt him with laser beams or just punch him into a puddle of meat.
>>
I agree with OP here. It had a couple flaws, but I thought it was a solid movie. The main complaint I've seen is that people didn't like the pacing and I disagree with this. For two heros to want to fight you need to really give them reasons why and I think the movie did a good job at that. Also if batman rushed into battle he obviously would get BTFO
>>
>>67414612
He has improved as a character, he's conflicted and rightfully so but he's actually saving people and his motivations make sense.

>>67414647

>>67414726

Superman doesn't want to kill Batman. Batman has kryptonite weapons. It's as simple as that really.

I now have 6 hours of free time and I can go to a cinema and spend money there to see BVS. Then I cant go to movies for next 7 days.

Do you think I should go to see it or not?
>>
>>67414726
Kryptonite gas grenades to weaken him significantly plus a power suit.

the fight is very well done if you ask me.

>>67414741
Exactly, i do think the movie did a good thing establishing all the conflict and motivations in the first 20 minutes and made the proper call backs to them when needed, especially Supes saving Lois from that terrorist. That was a good use of a chekovs gun.

plus we got batman's entire deal without being bored with seeing his origin. Which was VERY well done by the way.

aside form a few select scenes at the end and two minutes of shakey cam the cinematography is fucking top notch in this movie.

lighting aside. Boost that gamma by 2 dots.

he has a ton of lines in the movie.

just because he isnt talking his ass off (doesnt need to) doesnt mean he had no dialouge.

>>67414896
No, a lot of the shots were very well done, first few scenes of the movie were beautifully done.

its a VERY visual type of story telling and is done very Dark Knight Returns style where news pieces, court hearins, ect actually do a lot to set up the impact.


and speaking of Impact, thats something this movie follows through on, every action has a consequences and it plays out believably.
>>
>>67414487
>i'd say roughly 7/10,
Do you truly believe that?
>>
>>67415001
He blames him for causing the deaths of his friends and employees and believes he'll ultimately become a tyrant. A lot of Batman's characterization and themes is that he's feeling a lot of guilt and slowly losing his moral stance that is hinted at with the little inclusion of a Jason todd reference.

he's becoming a broken man who believe superman will either become a tyrant as said before, or will just refuse to help people.
>>
>>67415043
What exactly was the objective of their hearing in DC? For all they know, Supes could have just as easily not shown up, or just said "fuck you, I'm going to keep on doing what I'm doing". What are they going to do, arrest him?
>>
>>67415133
yes. while it does suffer from the issues i mention of poor lighting (contrast) and awkward obviously cut for theater pacing, there is a lot to like in this movie regarding its themes, follow up to MOS, acting, action, technically aspects like cinematography and dialogue.
yes it has flaws, but it is NOT what i would call a bad movie.
>>
>>67415001
He isn't held accountable for collateral damages that he causes. He's too powerful and if he decided to kill humans there is (was) nothing humans could do to stop him at all. I think to Batman taking out Superman is more of a preventative measure, a sort of precaution.
>>
>>67415212
less arrest and more like try to appeal to what decency he has and work out something. They believe he might be responsible for Deaths, so obviously they want his side of the story and get shit straightened out.

What's even the point of criticizing this movie? Is it honestly a surprise that the latest in a long lineage of cash-grab comic book movies sucks? People here try to criticize the thing as if it's art worth criticizing rather than a soulless commercial product. It's like trying to apply serious criticism to superbowl commercials. Sure, some are better than others. But none of them truly aspire to be anything more than a commercial enterprise, so it's a little bit silly to apply all the expectations associated with art criticism to them.
>>
>>67415284
i did like how the congresswomen wanted a hearing but also didnt want the kryptonite as a weapon against supes.

she actually had a decent moral compass and believed in the rule of law, and i liked that. She wasnt just a straight bureaucrat or crony like in the avengers/iron man.

i would have much preferred a businessman style lex who has a calm voice no matter what instead of jesse eisenberg saying cryptic retarded shit constantly, if he wasnt lex i would have enjoyed the movie much much more. i do hope the r rated cut fills in some spots and makes it more enjoyable the second time. overall i dont feel like i wasted my money but it did drag in some parts, i dont think many people followed some of the flashbacks in my theater, and the part with flash going through time and seeing bruce had 0 reaction from anyone except me. i just felt like normies didnt know what they were watching until the fighting happened
>>
>>67414487

I saw this in theaters tonight as well. A friend works for a company whose parent is DC so they had a preview screening I got to join in on.

I was trying to keep the criticisms I'd read about the movie in mind as I watched it. Honestly I mostly forgot about them. I really enjoyed the movie. I'll admit I'm a sucker for Batman though.

Some of the criticisms are accurate. There's not a lot of jokes. The color pallete is a little desaturated. But I think a lot of the criticisms have a glaring problem: they went into this movie with entirely wrong expectations.

I'm not going to shit on the Marvel movies by saying they're "quippy", but they tend to be somewhat more lighthearted. In addition, the MCU has gone for a fairly grounded or realistic approach to the series; even when super science or near-magic is involved, it is explained as Asgard tech or such.

If these critics went into BvS expecting that approach, they were mistaken. BvS is in full comic-book Fantasy mode, and I think it benefits from that, ultimately. Batman's fight scene against all the mooks in the warehouse is fantastic.

Eisenberg was "annoying", but only when he was putting on a persona. He's much more menacing when that drops.

Does this sound like what you thought of it?

Feel free to ask me questions about the movie too, I guess.

It was good for a comic book movie. It certainly doesn't deserve to be like 40% lower than Age of Ultron, now THAT was a pile of shit.

>>
>>67414726
That, my friend, is the question. He can't. Not normally. So he has to figure out *how* he could do it; that's what makes the prospect of the fight interesting. Batman's often at his best when his problem is "I can't fight that, so how do I beat it anyway?"

Among other things, he tries overwhelming him with sound (which really shows he did his research on Kryptonians), excessive gunfire (which injured Faora in MoS), his power armor, and finally Kryptonite gas grenades.
>>
>>67415395
>Is it honestly a surprise that the latest in a long lineage of cash-grab comic book movies sucks?
My point is that this movie DOESNT suck.

>People here try to criticize the thing as if it's art worth criticizing rather than a soulless commercial product.

art cant be a product or vise versa?
products cant be good?

>It's like trying to apply serious criticism to superbowl commercials.
even a commercial has some artistic merit.
just because the goal monetary gain doesnt make it immune from criticism or appreciation.

> But none of them truly aspire to be anything more than a commercial enterprise, so it's a little bit silly to apply all the expectations associated with art criticism to them.
i think thats unfair to many of the production teams who, yes are there to ultimately make a product, but also want to do the best job and elevate their work.

Some of the best works of art were done souly for profit.
>>
>>67415471
Lex did weird me out a bit. I felt like he never really talked TO people, just AT them. They would ask him a question and he would say something like "oh my father said..." or "there's a famous phrase." It definitely was a different Lex than I expected, but I thought it was a more villainous Lex.

I'm really REALLY hoping that was a reference to Injustice/Some Universe where Supes goes totalitarian because Lois Lane dies
I didn't expect it at all and I hope that happens in the movies

Essentially, Finch intended to appeal to his humanity, as it were. Her first line when he comes in is to insist that, in a democracy, people talk to one another. But in a sense, yes, the government was
fairly toothless against him. Which is part of why Batman takes it upon himself to oppose him.

>>67415702
That had the potential to be an interesting scene. To bad it was stopped before it even started with the Gramdma's piss tea suicide bombing.
>>
>>67415649
I've often seen Luthor as fairly reasonable, if ruthless. He has legitimate concerns about Superman and uses his considerable means to keep him in check. It often takes some extreme dog-kicking to make him villainous.

Which is why I actually really liked Eisenburg. This Luthor is deranged, possibly because he was cruelly abused as a child, and he loathes anyone with power.

He's essentially acting out a hate-induced fantasy of subjugating one's abusers; turning the tables on your tormentor, as it were. Note he is still afraid enough of his father that he didn't change anything in his old room. Though since his father is dead, he lashes out at the government and at Superman as authority figures.
>>
>>67415835

I didn't think it was piss.. is there a reason to think that besides it being yellow? I thought it was more terrifying to think that he not only remembered/researched her favorite drink from home, but acquired it and had it placed on her desk. It demonstrated the sheer power he actually wielded over her - which is what terrifies her so much before the bomb explodes.

If i may

>Lex
I disagree but thats souly down to preference.
>Lois was near pointless, outside of an ultimately pointless subplot about dealings in Africa or something, and trying (and failing) to get the Kryptonite spear
Well she had a view points, exposing who was behind the entire conspiracy, revealing Supes identity to Lex, and helping to be an answer to supes issues of guilt as referenced by his little self talk with his dad (good scene by the way) about how Martha Kent was what helped him get over his guilt of saving the farm as the expense of another's lively hood.

>>Movie was way too long, and took way too long to get going.

I sort of agree and disagree, i honestly believe if it was allowed more time the pacing and editing wouldnt feel constrained by the theater time limit so it wouldnt feel as long, like Fellowship of the Ring.

>I lost count at the number of dream sequences.
Its just 3

>Super awkward editing.
again, time constraint.
>Batman's reasoning for wanting to kill Superman was shaky at best.
I disagree, they had a pretty good set up for that

>Their reasoning for making up were even shakier ("Our moms have the same name? Nevermind, I don't want to kill you.")
I think it was more of the fact that it showed Bats Supes was vulnerable and ultimately another living being who just happens to be super. Bats had built him up as this god like villain but Clark being scared over losing his mother tore all of that down and Bats instantly related to his vulnerability.


>>I feel like they blew their Doomsday wad way too early

Nah, lets be honest. Doomsday is pretty one note for a villain, now Braniac or DarkSeid....fuck yeah.

Just got home. Saw it in IMAX 3D (not a fan of 3d but its the only way to reserve actual seats. got primo placement right in the middle)

Critics got it so wrong. I watched the film through the filter of trying to see justification for the bad reviews. There was none. It's abundantly clear that the critics were looking for more of Marvel's style of capeshit.

Either that or the hype was so huge, expectations shot beyond blind fanboy praise and landed in the real of over analyzing and guaranteed disappointment.

Batfleck and that musical cue when Wonder Woman arrives, were the only good parts of the movie.

I agree with OP. I just got back from the movie. I honestly don't know why the critics were as bad as they were on it.

Jesse Eisenberg was pretty ridiculous, and it did meander at the beginning, but after that I was engaged in the movie

Gal Gadot was really a non-issue in the movie. Not enough screen time to really get a read on her.

Ben Affleck's Batman was enjoyable. The only murder he did that I noticed was the guy that was about to kill Superman's mother and that's because he was basically emotionally compromised in that moment.

I definitely liked the new bat voice.

Better than most Marvel shit, not better than Avengers or CA:WS. Not better than Nolan's bat. Why the fuck are they casting Ezra Miller as The Flash though.

It really wasn't though, Man of Steel is better, and that is not a good thing.

But there is also tone to consider, you can have a FUN scene that is also not a HAPPY scene. War movies for example.

people assume FUN means the tone has to be happy.

BvS doesn't make sense. That's why the very famous comic of them fighting isn't actually a part of the DC continuity and is basically just a spinoff existing outside of it. WB thought for some reason they should base their big expensive tent pole franchise on this comic. That was a mistake.

bats sees supes as a legit threat to humanity and is also torn and guilt ridden, Supes is essentially forced to fight while also dealing with his own sins.

>implying you aren't overanalyzing this whole movie

>>
>>67414487
i saw it, figure Ill give my thoughts.

while yes, Batman's reason for being against superman are totally justified, the fact that he forgets this after finding out both their mothers are named Martha was dumb. not sayig you couldnt get something out of that, but this movie sure as hell didnt.

the first two hours are just kinda there, showing different plot threads that lead nowhere, with messy editing like the editors couldnt figure it out either. the dream sequences dont have any context, the only reason youd know theyre related to darkseid or the multiverse or whatever is if you read it online. i doubt most audience members have that same knowledge coming in, and the movie doesnt explain it

the piss jar bomb thing was laughably cringeworthy.

I like Jesse Eisenberg, but CHRIST this fucking lex luhor is just awful. he's an aspergers daffy duck that escaped the loony bin.

the movie thinks its so deep for bringing up religion or greek gods, but it feels so pretentious and results in underdeveloped observations. we get it, superheroes are the greek gods of today. is that all youre going to say? how is this movie deep for spouting juvenile philosophy or half assed religious symbolism?

Ben Affleck as Batman is awesome, regardless of him killing or not.

Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman was great too, for what little she was given.

The whole criticism of the movie being grimdark didnt really resonate with me. mostly because the dark shit feels so out of place. mostly because of the upbeat score, and mostly because the imagery is so obvious that it wants a reaction. the terrorism plot, the 9/11 stuff, the torcher, just felt shallow with no weight to really get any depressing feeling out of me.

I honestly dont see why anyone would want to defend this,p. i guess they're that easy to be pleased. and that makes me sad. its not downright awful to me, because when the trinity come together you get a glimpse of them playing off eachother perfectly
>>
Why has no one said anything about Batman killing like 20-30 people. He has machine guns built into every vehicle. I would have been fine with everything else, but the movie lost me as soon as a crazy fundamental aspect of a character was ignored. Sooka/Sokka level shit to me.
>>
>>67416836
I've read TDKR and BvS doesnt take that much from it, other than the fact that batman and superman fight.

Superman was obviously holding back, and batman got in a few good shots. they were tricked into hating eachother, which will be the catalyst for their lifelong friendship, and the creation of the justice league.


I havent heard anyone come up with a better set up

MM Boys was barely a line. It was in script terms an "Enter".

and the piss jar wasnt really piss, it was a threat or a checkmate. She never even drank it.
>>
>>67416934
honestly, one of the better parts. i feel like a decent amount of the end was what we shouldve just had as the entire movie
>>
>>67416919
Alfred reminded me of my mom in this movie. I can think of at least two moments where he makes sideways remarks about wanting Bruce to settle down and have kids.
>>
>>67416532

That did bother me a bit while watching. He definitely killed people in this movie.

There seemed to be some criteria, though. He didn't use guns or kill anyone in personal combat (except to rescue Martha) and he only used lethal force in the car against mooks with heavy machinery, which honestly gave him absolutely no other choice.

I'd be curious to know what personal rules he operates under in this universe.

He clearly does not kill people simply for expedience or because he thinks people will be safer if his target is dead. And that's always been the big hangup for him anyway; I doubt Batman's ever demonized soldiers, honest policemen or average people who killed when given no other choice to protect themselves; he just can't allow himself to kill when it's feasible not to.

Then again we may simply be seeing a bitter, enraged post-Jason Todd Batman. A Robin *is* dead.
>>
>>67414526
I actually laugh at this. This board broke me.

>>
>>67416896
>while yes, Batman's reason for being against superman are totally justified, the fact that he forgets this after finding out both their mothers are named Martha was dumb.

It's that he realizes right there that Superman is just a guy trying to save his mom. Something anyone can sympathize with, most of all someone who lost his own. Very human. So he puts the whole thing on hold.

>the piss jar bomb thing was laughably cringeworthy.
the piss jar wasn't a bomb. did you seriously think it was?
>>
>>67414526
Dunno, Lex was pretty autistic, so maybe one of his scenes might be meme-material.
>>
>>67416901
They pretty clearly established how Bruce viewed criminals basically as dirt at this point in his life. It's not outrageous to think at this point in his career he doesn't care about killing the ones that don't give him a choice. Granted they glossed over it completely as if everyone should know this, but I think the Hack deserves a pass here.

I just saw this movie. It seemed like it tried to be too many things. It would have been way better if it was just a Man of Steel 2 and only Lex was the villain and Bats and WW could have made cameos.

It might be WBs fault, trying to push out the Justice League films, but they could have started out the DC universe slower as the Marvel/ Avengers universe is half way done.

He doesn't deserve a pass BECASUE of that exact reason. DKReturns actually explained WHY batman is who he is in that story, BvS barely does that.

And that "I'll kill her, believe me I'll do it!" is of course completely misshandled in BvS.

Zack is a megalomaniac who tried to blend a couple of edgy well known stories of Superman and Batman. He failed at it by repeating the formula of MoS and the pacing.
I thought I was going to watch a good movie. Some people said to me they never saw anything like this. I was promised capekino by my normie friends in other words. It began with a white screen and black letters and I thought it would be divided in acts with distinct themes but boy was I wrong.

The entire movie was just setups for other movies. That is the biggest problem with capeshit, its just a vehicle for more capeshit, it doesn't stand on its own as a film or tell its own story.

My problem with that statement is the movie was reviewed more negatively than a vast majority of recent capeshit that is absolutely worse in both of those respects.

I consider "fun" being totally engrossed in the world that a movie conjures up, regardless if the tone is bright and cheery or dark and joyless.

BvS's tone is almost like a greek tragedy, and I think that's what has thrown most critics off. They went in looking at the movie through Marvel-colored glasses when ultimately the point of the movie is to transport you straight into the dark and grimy universe of late 80's/early 90's comics.

I had fun watching this thing on the big screen. It wasn't perfect and has quite a few flaws, specifically some of the editing and CGI and an odd portrayal of Lex Luther, but it's been years since a movie took me completely out of this world and tossed me headlong into another. To me, that's what cinema is supposed to be and this movie nailed it in that aspect.

> So no, this movie isnt remotely as bad as people are shitting themselves over.

This tbqfh.

I went into the theater expecting a complete shitshow, but really enjoyed most parts. Really loved Affleck's Batman. Thought the whole Justice League tease was forced in, would have cut those scenes if I were Snyder.

Overall, I'd say BvS is a 6/10, maybe a 7/10.

why was doomdsday was like a mutant king kong? i remember from the pepsi cards that he can talk and interact, he was an atagonist not just a nuclear monkey.

Does it look like there will be a legion of doom or is it going in a different direction? I don't want lex to be killed off

2.5/5, with MoS 2/5.

Because they needed to destroy more buildings and shock the audience by having Superman die.

He literally crushes a man with his car. I don't think he's batman at this point.

Just got back

It wasn't a massive pile of shit, but it's not great.

I enjoyed MOS and I enjoyed BVS equally. I think once other directors take on the DCEU and not Snyder, the quality of films will begin to get much better.

What I liked:
>Affleck's Batman is now my favorite portrayal put on screen. I really hope he directs a solo Batman film.
>the action scenes were pretty damn good, especially the batmobile chase sequence and the final fight between the trinity and doomsday.
>Eisenberg was a pretty good Lex Luthor, even though he was a little over the top at times.
>Wonder Woman was great in the end and not really anywhere else
>I loved the entire 3rd act from when Bruce steals Lex's Kryptonite to the final shot of the movie.
>It left me wanting to see more of Affleck's Batman and him going against his classic rogues gallery. I can't wait for a solo film.
>Metropolis destruction from Bruce's POV was great.

What I didn't like:
>pacing was a little bit weird, the Pa Kent scene seemed really out of place.
>Mercy Graves was completely useless and served no purpose to anything.
>Holly Hunter's lisp when she pronounces anything with an "s" is incredibly annoying.
>I expected more from the fight between bats and supes, pretty underwhelming.
>Zack Snyder shouldn't be making Justice League
>some things seemed really out of place like Diana finding out JUST BEFORE the fight about all the other metahumans

overall, 6.5/-7/10. It was alright. I'm excited to see James Wan do Aquaman since I loved Saw, Conjuring, Insidious, and Furious 7. I think Wonder Woman will be pretty good and I'm curious to see what they'll do with Cyborg.

I think it's time for Zack Snyder to stop making DC films though considering he's given the DCEU a sluggish and underwhelming start with the less than favorable response to the first two movies.

i get what youre saying, but i dont think reshowig the first few scenes of the movie, with his parents being shot, makes this as clear as you want to present it.

again, i get it. i think for most people though having batman realize that superman isnt that bad, because his mom shares his own moms name, is kind of stupid.
>>
>Batman vs Superman
LITERALLY 10 MINUTES OF THESE TWO FIGHTING EACH OTHER.
>>
>>67416988
>Then again we may simply be seeing a bitter, enraged post-Jason Todd Batman. A Robin *is* dead.
You know what happens in post-Jason Todd Batman? He still doesn't kill. This movie was really weird with batman and I was genuinely uncomfortable with it. In particular during the chase scene.
>>
>>67418164
>i think for most people though having batman realize that superman isnt that bad, because his mom shares his own moms name, is kind of stupid.

Not him but I never saw it as that. There was a lot more parallelism involved. The fight that lead up to it even involved Bruce talking about their upbringings and their reasons for what they do.
>>
>>67418202
And now I remember what the Red Hood asked him about the Joker.
>WHY IS HE STILL ALIVE?
>>
>>67418164
Maby its because snyder doesnt feel like he has to explain what he would consider being simple to understand points.

And again, its not the name, its the fact he is the son of someone from earth and is more worried about her death than his own.
that crushes batman's entire view of Superman. it showed him he was completely wrong and he was about to commit actual murder.

Fair enough. Different strokes for different folks. I just think this movie deserves a lot more than critics are giving it, some of their negatives were actually positives for me.

They say the movie takes itself too seriously but I actually love that it does. I can't stand these superhero movies that have this ironic "wink wink" feel to them, makes it seem like the whole thing is parody and not worth getting invested in and like the filmmakers don't actually like comic books.

BvS felt like a literal comic book movie. I understand that some people might hate that style but for me it's very entertaining.

>>67414526
>tell me, do you bleed?
>you're going to
>>
>>67418236
and even then Batman has been responsible for plenty of deaths in and out of comics.

destroying vehicles with bad guys firing .50s at him isnt really a direct kill but he had to stop the machine guns.

now when he shot that pyros tank....that WAS a direct kill but it was a very justified moment.


it think this universe is going for the "we just really prefer NOT to kill, but lets not fucking fool ourselves here" kind of universe, which i prefer.
they keep the code but not retardedly so.

it's really good. better than vs zod imo.

This, i love Deadpool, but i love DEADPOOL as deadpool, not half of the MCU being Deadpool

Shit gets annoying.

>>67416533
In this universe, Gotham and Metropolis are sister cities, ie RIGHT next to eachother, so in that fight, Superman and Zod are flying between the 2 essentially while beating the shit our of eachother

>They say the movie takes itself too seriously but I actually love that it does.

literally was one of my biggest dislikes of this film and MoS. Snyder is to blame for this. I cannot stand this shit. It's a comic book movie I think it needs a certain level self-awareness and just embrace it.

I felt like it was ashamed of it and was trying to hide by pretending to be some greek tragedy.

fuck that horse shit.
that is retarded as all hell.
Even comic books dont do that self aware horse shit half the time. Some fo the best comic dont have any self awareness.

DC defense force in full swing I guess. But its not too surprising. Most would have liked this movie no matter what.

why did wonder woman use a comercial flight instead of her invisible jet? she couldn't find it?
>>
>>67418392
I'm not asking for DC movies to be carbon copies of Marvel movies but goddamn they really are hard to digest.

It just doesn't have to be a drag constantly, and it did take itself too seriously. I do think Snyder is to blame, and without him this movie would have been much much better.

>>67418417
She, uhh, has to keep up appearances.

>>67418392
You don't have to be like Marvel to be self aware that you're a comic movie. MoS and BvS are just drab, depressing and barely ever let up on that atmosphere.

>It just doesn't have to be a drag constantly, and it did take itself too seriously
That's a BIG problem with this movie.
