Slightly surprised this hasn't popped in CT yet. BvS is of course Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. to say the reviews have been bad is an understatement, it's current sat at 28% over at Rotten Tomatoes. Conversely Captain America: Civil War is at 93%. A certain part of DC fandom has met this with accusations that the critics are either biased against DC movies or are actually being paid off by Disney.
Short version of why its nonsense: The first weekend when critical reviews might be expected to have an impact BvS did huge business. By the second weekend, when word of mouth is the key factor, sales dropped 68% in the USA and 76% in China. Word of mouth killed sales, not critics.
Long version of Why it's nonsense: check out this YouTube video that dissects the stupidity in detail.
