Black levels remain solid, grain can be mildly inconsistent, and a few of the busier shots can look a little noisy. The new tweaks deliver a richer overall color palette, one that's less harsh and more pleasing to the eye, to give us a fresh take on a well- worn small-screen staple that's been everywhere over the past five years. It's a direct sequel to Man of Steel and a pivotal stepping-stone to Justice League and the larger DC Extended Universe or 'DCEU' that also introduced Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman.

For better or worse, the movie hasn't changed: This is the three-hour, R-rated 'Ultimate Edition' that details evil Lex Luthor's elaborate scheme to frame Superman for horrific crimes and trigger the ire of Batman in order to lead the duo into mortal combat.

And so, the studio took the unusual step of remastering the movie from the existing 4K video transfer and rereleasing it, with the new version addressing Snyder's crimson concerns as well as showcasing the de rigueur IMAX scenes in their full and correct 1.43:1 aspect ratio. Legend has it that director Zack Snyder was streaming his Dawn of Justice one day and was unhappy with the color, specifically red, a shade relevant to much more than a certain Last Son of Krypton.
