Compare And Contrast Batman Vs Superman

Introduction

Zack Snyder’s Batman v. Superman and Joe and Anthony Russo’s Captain America Civil War are both about superheros that end up with the good guys fighting against each other. The themes of the movies are similar, both being about power and justice.

(Batman vs. Superman)

Batman is Gotham City’s super hero that takes on the evil in their city. Superman is an ‘alien’ that came to earth to survive and protects Metropolis as best he can. In the movie, Batman v. Superman, Batman fears the actions of the god-like Superman, being unchecked, causing damage and harm. Batman then becomes involved and takes on superman causing even more destruction, while the world needs a decision on what kind of hero it really needs. Someone could learn from this movie that solving conflicts always come with crossfire and you can’t help it, you need to overcome the situation not escalate it.

(Captain America Civil War)
After a mission with a new Avengers squad led by Cap ends with several civilian casualties, the team is then asked to sign an agreement that would force them to take orders from the government. Iron Man pushes Cap to accept these new rules, in part because Iron man feels guilty about his own past destruction. On the other hand Captain America fears that the Avengers will only be torn apart by bureaucracy. Their disagreement eventually turns into all-out war between the two groups. Someone could learn from this movie that friends need to stick together even if they disagree because in the long run the arguments aren’t worth losing each
