Our own review is under embargo so we can't share our official thoughts just yet, but if you're looking for thoughts on Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice from people who've seen it, keep reading. Fans attending the New York City premiere yesterday have already let their opinions be known via Twitter, and the consensus so far is that the superhero beatdown is well worth the price of admission, with considerable kudos going toward Ben Affleck and Gal Godot as Batman and Wonder Woman, respectively. Check out 10 of the best reactions below:

So Ben Affleck is my favorite Batman now.. #BVSPremiereMarch 21, 2016

If #BatmanvSuperman is an example of what to expect from future DC movies then Marvel better watch outMarch 21, 2016

I can confirm the loudest applause of the night at #BVSPremiere was #WonderWoman entrance. #WhoWillWin Wonder Women won. And she will againMarch 21, 2016

Go buy your tickets if you haven't. Judge it for yourself. It's a must see.March 21, 2016

Still not over the #BVSPremiere. Still so giddy. Im totaaaaallllyy going to be seeing this againMarch 21, 2016

Batman v Superman was great. Jesse Eisenberg's performance in particular blew me away. #BatmanvSupermanMarch 21, 2016

Lots to process and think about, but overall BvS is an excellent movie #BVSPremiereMarch 21, 2016

#BVSPremiere standing ovation after a gut wrenching emotional cliffhanger. best superhero action ever. best SH film in at least 5 yearsMarch 21, 2016
