This version shows that the villagers were burned by Anatoli and his goons and considering the Man of Steel has heat vision, definitely makes the crime seem more plausible. In the theatrical cut, mercenaries employed by Lex Luthor shot up a village and blamed Superman for it, which stuck and many fans and critics were confused as to how this would stick as Superman would never use firearms. This version of Batman V Superman also does a better job of explaining why Superman was framed for the events in Africa. Clark feels justified now in having to stop Batman because he’s been told firsthand how scared the citizens of Gotham are of him. Through Clark’s investigations, he learns that Batman sees himself as a fearmonger and above the law. Likewise, we learn just how much of a death sentence the bat-brand can be from the point of view of the branded’s wife. The Man of Steel took a backseat in the theatrical cut, but this version shows him investigating Batman much more thoroughly in Gotham, interviewing citizens who fear the Bat. One of the main reasons for this is by giving Henry Cavill’s Clark Kent/Superman a lot more things to do. It adds quite a bit of content and thankfully, everything that was added feels essential to making this movie make more sense. The Ultimate Edition of Batman V Superman is thankfully a much better version than what we got in cinemas.
