Soon, it's discovered that a Kryptonite meteor the size of a small country is headed towards Earth and will impact in seven days. While President Luthor tries fighting it off with rockets, Batman slyly hints he's "working on something with one of his contacts". Luthor proposes to meet with Superman to discuss the threat; it turns out to be an ambush where Secret Service Agent John Corben (Metallo) lays the smackdown on the Man of Steel until Batman bails him out. In the aftermath of the ambush, however, Metallo is found murdered. Luthor frames Superman, citing mental imbalance due to the meteor, and announces a bounty on his head.
Cue an entire movie's worth of Superman and Batman, going up against pretty much the entire DCU. Along the way they pick up a grand total of two allies: Comicbook/PowerGirl and Japanese 13-year-old genius the Toyman. Things change quite a bit as the film progresses, however. A sub-plot deals with Luthor having a VillainousBreakdown as panic spreads, his anti-meteor tactics fail and his Presidency goes south.

* AdaptedOut: The John Stewart Green Lantern, Pete Ross, the future Superman, and the Super- and Bat-families (Superboy, Krypto, the Cir-El Supergirl, the Natasha Irons Steel, Nightwing, the Tim Drake Robin, the Cassandra Cain Batgirl, and Huntress) all appear in the comic, but not in the movie. John Stewart and Pete Ross notable because in the comic version, John was part of Luthor's SuperTeam and Pete was Luthor's VP. The Michael Holt Mister Terrific and the original Flash and Green Lantern were also in the comic, but their only scene was in the lead-in to Superman and Batman's confrontation with Hawkman and Captain Marvel.

* LackOfEmpathy: [[spoiler:Unsurprisingly, Lex doesn't really care if the meteor destroys the earth, along with everyone on it, so long as he gets to preserve and strengthen his reputation. He even tried to ruin the duo's attempt to stopping meteor themselves when he confronts them.]]

These happened in the source material, as well, so it's not really examples of those tropes if the adaptation keeps what was there.

* AdaptationalIntelligence: Solomon Grundy now speaks in complete sentences instead of his typical HulkSpeak to the point where he sounds reasonably intelligent. This is eventually subverted, as he was mindcontrolled by Gorilla Grodd and immediately reverts to his HulkSpeak after being freed from his mindcontrol due to being exposed to Batman's tear gas when he tried to unmask him.
* AdaptationalWimp: Mongol and Lady Shiva are taken out rather more easily than their comic counterparts would be. As with Grundy's AdaptationalIntelligence, this is because of Grodd's mind control.
