And the pacing was just bad even for a brain dead action flick. Like the first act was okay but then the second act was just a series of boring fetch quests and unnecessary flashbacks which they should’ve saved for the second movie, imagine that George Lucas revealed who Luke’s father was in the first Star Wars movie that’s basically what Snyder did. And it took way too long while at the same time it pushed the story barely forward. And introducing every new character in the second act with a long action sequence didn’t make any sense, like at that point I wasn’t invested at all in the new characters, I couldn’t care less if they died.

And then the 3rd act was super short and just slapped at the end. It went immediately from betrayal to the final act battle.

They can’t even write a basic three act story for a simple action movie.
