Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is, for me, the best and most complete film in Zack Snyder's DC trilogy. It carries an epic, tense, and almost divine energy throughout - a true magnum opus feel that few superhero movies have achieved since.
The soul of the film lies in Lex Luthor's character, brilliantly portrayed by Jesse Eisenberg. His intellect, psychological depth, and chaotic brilliance make him the identity of the movie. Every time he's on screen, you feel that unpredictable edge Snyder wanted - the fear of a mind that can manipulate even gods.
Ben Affleck's Batman is another highlight - rugged, believable, and deeply human. Snyder developed him with such maturity that he feels both larger-than-life and relatable at once. The introduction of Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot) was also smartly woven in, not overdone, yet strong enough to leave a lasting impact.
Hans Zimmer and Junkie XL's music amplifies everything - dark, grand, and emotionally piercing. The combination of visuals, score, and pacing builds a constant sense of weight and anticipation. Some scenes (especially the Batman warehouse fight and the Doomsday showdown) are pure cinematic brilliance.
My one regret - the trailers gave away too much. Had they held back more, the impact in theaters would've been even greater. Still, the movie remains a bold, philosophical, and powerful take on how the world would truly react to heroes among us.
Snyder didn't just make a comic book film - he made a myth.

Koi Aap Sa is one of those rare early-2000s Hindi films that quietly explored a difficult and emotional subject wrapped in the simplicity of friendship and trust. It begins like a light romantic friendship story between childhood best friends, but gradually takes a mature, emotional turn that you don't often see in mainstream Bollywood.
What stood out most for me was the execution - it didn't try to sensationalize or dramatize the sensitive topic it handled. Instead, it focused on the emotional bond, human choices, and the test of friendship when life turns unexpectedly painful.
Aftab Shivdasani and Natassha (Anita Hassanandani) delivered genuine performances, especially in the film's heavier emotional parts. The supporting cast might feel a bit dated now, but the heart of the story - the idea of love, friendship, and moral courage - still connects.
The music by Himesh Reshammiya was also memorable and beautifully woven into the narrative, adding warmth to the emotional tone.
It's not a perfect film - pacing and some dramatic moments could've been tighter - but overall, it's a touching, sincere attempt at telling a story about empathy and emotional strength.
Koi Aap Sa isn't loud or flashy, but it quietly stays with you.
