* GenericDoomsdayVillain: Some fans find this version of Darkseid to be rather boring, especially considering how little backstory or characterization he gets outside of "wants to conquer earth". Made worse by the fact that he gets very little dialogue throughout the movie.

** Even before it was released it was already causing one; fans of the arc it's based on are happy, while those who hate the Comicbook/{{New 52}} and didn't want it reflected into other media projects are not. And there are also those who just plain don't like the arc, or wish DC went with an older story to adapt or maybe some other New 52 arc.
