I loved this movie. Don't know why it did so bad. Maybe it's a personal thing or just an age thing, I grew up on Tim Burton's batman with Micheal Keaton and watched batman evolve/devolve from there, my absolute favorite movie growing up as a child was Back to the future. I also always loved DC growing up. It was interesting to watch what they did with the timeline of what DC was in the passed and integrated in with what it is now. Perhaps I'm biased and Maybe younger people didn't like this movie, but I personally loved it. I also think that people are a bit over critical.
