He looked or acted nothing like Luthor. Although Ezra Miller is a good actor, casting him to play a superhero is ridiculous. He looks nothing like what the character of Flash, is supposed to be. Ben Affleck's performance of Batman is laughable. He's trying so hard to use the "Christian Bale voice" that it's obvious he's blatantly ripping off Bale's performance. Finally, Henry Cavill is about as wooden and stoic as they come. He actually made Superman boring. He has no personality and brought absolutely nothing to the character.

I actually like Batfleck and Henry Cavill.
My issue with DC is less about acting and much more about direction and story telling. They are weak in every movie in that aspect.
The movies as a whole tend to be messy.

I do as well. Affleck is playing an older version of Batman/Bruce Wayne than has ever been portrayed on screen to my knowledge. I think he does well with it. I don't see the Christian Bale influence at all. At this point Bruce/Batman have been doing this awhile and Affleck conveys his weariness quite well. 

I love Henry Cavill as Clark Kent/Superman. I don't think he's wooden in his performance at all. I think he's playing the character as a humble guy who didn't ask for the responsibility he has and is doing his best under the circumstances. His facial expressions convey a lot of emotion he's feeling at any given time. 

Totally agree with the direction and story telling. I thought WW was a solid movie. I actually liked it better the second time around. It has it's issues but no movie is perfect.
