Let's discuss the films of Zack Snyder

Dawn of the Dead - a dumbed down remake lacking any of the social satire of its original, but entertaining action horror.

300 - enjoyable once, but dated terribly and boring the last time I watched it.

Watchmen - panel for panel recreation of the book that somehow missed the point. Imagine the Psycho remake as is only with fetishised violence and Norman Bates is depicted as koool and righteous.

Man of Steel - despite trying to make Superman more realistic and I guess relatable, the main problem is it lacks any humanity whatsoever. But I respect the chaotic third act because it's the only time Snyder has been honest as a filmmaker in his entire superhero career.

BvS - childish and pretentious at once. A movie I've wanted to see my whole life, made by a guy who obviously hates both characters in their classical forms.

Justice League - this is not a Snyder movie. It wasn't even a Snyder movie before Whedon got onboard, as you can see in the yuckfest Comic Con trailer.

Summary - Snyder's visuals can craft a solid opening credit sequence or trailer, but he's a terrible storyteller, hit or miss with actors, and his adaptations lack the commentary and intelligence of their source material. He's Michael Bay with delusions of grandeur. He thinks if he says "God" enough times in his movies while making them as dark as possible, that will translate to them being deep and philosophical no matter how empty the rhetoric, and dudebros who don't like thinking too much but like thinking they do eat it up.

Loved Man of Steel, disliked Batman versus Superman, thought Justice League was just okay. I used to hate 300 but it's fine. It is what it is. I haven't seen Watchmen all the way through but it's not bad.
