Warning: That Wrap review definitely has spoilers. Though it doesn't leak the biggest one, it alludes to it. {nm}

Yep, the spoilery Wrap review above, positive but w/ "grimmer superman-might-not-soar" aces it in a way. More later. {nm}

Anyone else concerned about the slipping? Now at 71% with only 31 reviews counted. Experience tells me it will end up at least in the 60s.

Reading my comment now it comes off as scolding... I wasn't trying to do that; I just don't want to know any plot points before going in.

Understood, and I've been meticulous about spoiler space / walls too. But unfortunately "grimmer" was in the link above. I'm saying... {nm}

Don't be disuaded at all by that or the RT. My view is Superman is still the Light and Batman the Dark, but both are "good guys". {nm}
