We haven't even seen the movie. Most reviews already either don't make sense or seem pretty biased. Comparing it to Marvel when it has nothing to do with the generic Marvel movies? Have you read them? I call BS. Same thing happened with BvS and movie was praised by fans (minus Jesse Eisenberg).

Critics don't represent fans. Critics offer professional opinions to the general public. And everything indicates that the general public did not enjoy BvS. The steep second week drop shows poor word of mouth. CimenaScore, which polls actual movie-goes, was a B. The box-office multiplier was under x2, extremely weak for any movie, let alone a tent pole. So the critics were not wrong on BvS. We can't look at movie reviews through the lens of 'fans'. Thats not the audience.
The reason why the film is being compared to Marvel films is because they are an example of doing the job well. Critics agree, and most importantly AUDIENCES agree. Once again, take of the rose-tinted glasses of a fan and compare the quantitative numbers. It is NATURAL for critics to compare the movie to the biggest rival franchise. DC fans and Marvel fans have been at each other's throats. DC and its directors have made a point of comparing themselves to Marvel. It would be REMISS for critics to ignore the elephant in the room.
