    Being one of the worst parts of an already horrible movie will do that.
    It was a combo of not the right actor, the direction, and everything about it though. Especially the writers, director, and producers.

        I dunno, I still think Reynolds did a good job in the movie. The script was bad to meh, but he carried off Hal very well imo

          He most certainly did not carry anything in that movie. Script was trash, the effects were trash and yes, believe it or not, Ryan’s acting was beyond trash in that.

          It’s OK, actors just suck at their job sometimes like anyone else but I am exhausted with people blatenly ignoring how god damn awful his performance was in GL. He was just as much a problem as every other thing in it. The film has exactly zero redeeming qualities, including him.

            Dude, I’m not sure why this is a pet peeve for you, but I’m not interested in being ranted at. It’s rude.

      What a hyperbole, you clearly haven’t seen horrible movies if you think BvS is one, especially the extended cut, you can disagree with it’s direction but it’s in no way a horrible movie, Suicide Squad is a horrible movie, Star Wars episode 9 is a horrible movie.

      99% of Asylum stuff are horrible movies.

      BvS is just a meh movie, but then for me, so is most of the MCU, watch one time, then forget about it.

      Episode 9 and GoT season 8 (well season 5-8 in hindsight)makes me actively mad when thinking about them, those are horrible pieces of media

              No, I got their point and I got your point before it. Only one of you was rude and trying to shut down discussion.

              I actually agree with you about wisneberg as an actor but I think the other poster is right in that it was a mediocre movie.
