Yeah that one warehouse scene saved the movie for me. Too bad there was so little action.

Thinking back on the Nolan Batman and his fight with Bane, that was simply just a knuckles to knuckles brawl, which may suit a more realistic world like the one created of Nolan. Batman fights as I would imagine he would in the BvS movie.

However, I thought the movie was more or less crap, Batman himself made up for it.
Yes, Nolan's Batman was much more grounded in reality hence the lack of superhuman strength/speed.
It was mentioned early on regarding Batfleck that since this was the Batman of the Justice League, he would be way more impressive and comic accurate (thank god) in order to keep up with the other characters.

Snyder and the design/fight teams undoubtedly got some inspiration from the Arkham games. Never played them but I have watched a ton of vids and right from that trailer where you could see some bits of the warehouse fight, it was obvious.
The Batmobile is clearly inspired by the game's version as well.

In my opinion that was the right decision, that's how Batman should fight, it's so brutal and entertaining. Snyder has many flaws as a director/storyteller but he knows fight scenes, that's for sure.

The warehouse scene is the best fighting I have seen in a comic book movie. I love Cap vs Winter Soldier, Cap in the elevator as well, but this is on another level.

It was definitely a story driven film. I'm okay with that, because I did enjoy the story. I loved how much they went into the psychology of Bruce and Lex. I loved how they went into the real world ramifications of having someone like Superman. The only part of the movie I don't like is Doomsday.

as much as I love the Nolan trilogy "rises" was a miss and any fight scene involving extras was terrible among several other sloppy mistakes. the movie as a whole felt like the production was rushed and they didn't take the same care they did with BB and TDK

fight scenes in both the first two movies were great imo, batman seemed very methodical but improvisational at the same time

that said if theres one thing Snyder does well its fight scenes and the warehouse scene is probably my favorite fight scene in any movie ever

It seems very inspired. All that face smashing into the floorboards and walls.It was literally the first thing that came to my head.But The Raid has easily the most entertaining fight scenes ever.

Dood - indeed you need to take it down a notch. I didn't love the film either but there is no need to disrespectfully dissent with those that do.

I just recently saw this movie twice; The theatrical release, and extended edition, and thought the extended edition made the movie much more enjoyable. People keep saying that Batman kills in this. But I hadn't seen him kill anyone directly in the film. The people that got blown up or whatever, I take that as collateral damage, and that the bad guys died by their own hands, while Bats was defending himself.

Pretty sure quite a few of the bad guys died during the warehouse scene
Actually that last one that he stabs with a knife against the wall, you can see Batman come back to him at the end and it's implied that he stabs him in the stomach.

I'm fine with it, I really don't care. I know that's not the "purist" approach but what matters to me is the acting, the action, the psychology of the character, the gadgets/suit/vehicles/Batcave, etc... If all of that is awesome (and it is), I don't care if he kills a few guys, especially considering that for a lot of the kills, like you said, he is just defending himself.
