Dubious
I fast-forwarded through this. The problem is two-fold. One, no one cares about the characters. They are flat and insipid and any modicum of development is a caricature at best, particularly the opening scenes. Worse, it's performed by otherwise very capable actors.
Second, Hollywood must stop feeding the myth of the MCU, as it's generating worse and worse quality all in the name of the almighty dollar. There is no resemblance here to a superhero, and even if there were, story is abandoned in favour of makeup and special effects and a repulsive visage. The fetishization of all things MCU is second only to, well, the second amendment, and with 6 year olds shooting teachers, we know how useful fetishes can be.

Terrible script but ok effects
Watched it for Jared Leto, as I don't have much hope for these shallow junk from Marvel and DC stuff. And I was right..the premise was good, but a terrible amateur script was unbearable. Where do all the bats come from in the end? A hastily packed garbage bag of incoherent script is what this is, and the immediate creation of good vs bad polarity is so amateur. They should've also let the movie breathe, make it longer to 2 hours at least. The redeeming aspect is the special effects. Seems like the story would've been more befitting for Batman rather than make him look like a clown with the bat suit.
