People expect films to feel like books or comics with their style/detail of explanation.
Film is a completely different art, a different language.
Just because something isn't stated, doesn't mean it isn't said. It doesn't lack depth just because you don't know how to see it.
“If only Zack Snyder's storytelling skills were as strong as his visual directing 🥀”

"I'm not like Superman" she says with a smile.
It's very telling how this Superman doesn't inspire anyone. They all just consider him a bitch, especially his cousin.
Compre that to Snyder's Superman, who inspired Batman to go back to the light and Wondy to come out retirment.
It really sucks knowing that I lost my favorite Superman (and Batman and Wonder Woman) because of clinically stupid people like this.
