Yep. Which is ironic, since he's the best thing about it.
He did not seem to share that view. "Worst on-screen portrayal of Batman since Clooney."
...but I also think he hates Afflek.

Why do we care what some bloke you saw on another message board said? I saw someone on another message board say Einstein got it all wrong, but I'm not going to enter that into evidence.
I'd care what *you* thought, Danny.
Why do we care?
Communicating is what people do. If we didn't care, critics wouldn't have a job. Spies, either. And people wouldn't gossip. Etc. and from those flawed sources, we make flawed judgements.
What it comes down to is gathering data and sorting it through your own filters. Nobody- no critic, no buddy, no dööd howling in the wilds of the Interwebz- can tell you if you will enjoy a particular film. All they can do is tell you what they observed and how they felt about it. It's up to you to to decide whether what they describe increases or decreases your desire to see a film.
So why did I bring up that guy on another board? Just to illustrate that it isn't just the critics giving BvS a resounding raspberry of a review.

And, also, to be honest, he said it in a clever way, which is a selling point for the written piece, if not the opinion behind it.
Well...yeah, TBH.

I think there's some number of people who read critics, but I don't suspect the critics have much impact on attendance for large properties.
This is part of why we see so many movies with known characters - they are known to sell, whatever the content is reported to be. People will go to see it *because* it is bad, even.
