Ever since the response and complaints about Man of Steel essentially 9/11-ing Metropolis and the lack of Superman saving people, they now always take their final battle somewhere where it is conveniently just empty. In BvS, the city was conveniently empty when Doomsday broke out because the news conveniently said it was after 5 and people were home from work. Then part of Gotham just happens to be conveniently abandoned during the Doomsday fight. Now in Justice League, it felt very small in scale. Like with Superman's return, I'd expect half the city to really be there to witness his return even if he's kinda gone bad and is fighting the other members. Then in the end in fake Chernobyl, it's established there's a village or town there but all we really focus on is just one little family. The film just felt very empty and didn't have that sort of epicness to it because of that. All because Snyder doesn't know how to balance destruction and actually showing their heroes save people. He takes the easy way out and just comes up as really contrived and convenient for the heroes.

The thing they don't get is that it isn't the possibility of civilian casualties people were reacting to...it was that Superman didn't seem to care very much.
