9. Character motivations make no sense
Lex Luthor’s reasons for making Batman and Superman fight are non-existent in the film. It is never explained why he hates Superman and why he wants Superman to kill Batman. He goes out of his way to frame Superman multiple times even though it is completely unnecessary because the public already mostly hates Superman.
His motivations in the film are so unclear it doesn’t make sense why he does any of the things he does. Batman already wanted to kill Superman way before Lex got involved. It is never explained or even implied why Lex is doing this. There is some nonsense about Lex’s father being from East Germany and some ramblings about gods, but it goes nowhere.
