I really can't pick on much of MoS or BvS other than the casting/acting of Eisenberg as Lex...that was a miss...at least in his first appearance.
Here, here. Agreed on all accounts.

The only thing I'll add is that the marketing/advertising for this movie was absolute shit. That definitely put them behind the eight ball, especially the second trailer which spoiled Doomsday. They also should have kept Wonder Woman a total secret. They blew their wad in the marketing so those big moments had no real impact in the theater because you knew they were coming.

Other than that, the movie itself is amazing, especially the "Ultimate" version which WB should have just sacked up and released. It makes it a much, much better movie.
