Above all else, the Ultimate Edition goes a long way in explaining just how long Lex Luthor had been manipulating Superman, Batman, and other people within the story - as well as the extent of the malevolent billionaire's influence. We've put together a list of every single difference in the Batman V Superman Ultimate Edition, and there are a lot of them, but we'll highlight the main three here as well: Clark, Lex, and Lois. In the most basic sense, Batman V Superman doesn't just add back in key details to the plot, it also includes a number of extended scenes and subplots that (even in the most subtle instances) allow the audience to linger on interesting conversations longer than before while also clarifying entire story beats that, originally, made characters look stupid, careless, or downright unheroic. It's worth noting this version isn't just Batman V Superman with deleted scenes added back in, it's the version that Snyder would have released - if a three-hour cut of the film wouldn't have been a turnoff for the average moviegoer.

There are still moments of clumsy storytelling, a significant amount of shared universe setup, and an overall dour tone but the Ultimate Edition injects a considerable amount of quality character drama and plot development back into the experience - putting more distance between the clunky parts while also providing a much more comprehensible set of side arcs that elevate every character, every narrative beat, and every thematic through-line in the process. The Ultimate Edition is not going to make converts out of viewers who thought the 'Martha' moment was an idiotic resolution to the title fight or rolled their eyes at Lois Lane's disposal (then retrieval) of a kryptonite spear. Fortunately, the Ultimate Edition improves upon many of the film's biggest narrative shortcomings - clarifying and/or outright answering a number of questions that had, previously, presented major plot holes and often undermined the intelligence and integrity of Batman V Superman's starring heroes. The result was a movie that, for those who weren't put-off my the darker tone or Snyder's deconstructive approach, was still packed with plot holes and underdeveloped arcs - one that the studio, clearly, struggled to stuff into the release-friendly format of a tentpole superhero film. The Dawn of Justice theatrical cut pushed through a lot of plot, exposition, and action (with Snyder's trademark flare) but often cut away too fast during scenes that would have allowed the filmmaker to dig below the surface and deliver meaningful (even coherent) character development.
