Easily Better Than Dawn of Justice!

The Batman/Superman Movie: World's Finest is a FINE film itself. We see the world's two greatest superheroes fight against Lex Luthor and The Joker; pretty self-explanatory I reckon. What follows the colossal team-ups is colourful fun filled with comic-paced action sequences that makes up for great entertainment for kids and fully-grown-ass-men still loving their superheroes, like myself.

As a Batman & Superman crossover, this movie trounces Dawn of Justice tenfold in its entertainment factor and understanding of the characters. Is this a fair comparison considering this film was part of an already pre-established franchise in the DC-Animated-Universe? I'd say that yes, because this one was a result of the storytelling taking its time to build up to this point as opposed to just jumping right into it the way Dawn of Justice did.

World's Finest does its job well and caters to both fans of The Man of Steel and The Dark Knight perfectly.
