Affleck. Of course. That is one of the greatest performances of the last 20 years to say the least.
Actors and actresses, especially the Oscar baitey types, often act merely on the outside. Rarely do we see a performance these days - and in a major popular film - hold such an inner, subtle personal performance. So fragile and humane. Affleck speaks with his body language throughout almost all of the film. Sometimes it's just one second of a look from the eyes. Other times it's a flinch. And sometimes it's merely the way the line is delivered.

I think I voted for BvS... It was so awful. Suicide Squad is pretty much equally awful if not more, but BvS just dropped the ball harder in my opinion. At least that one left me most angry and with a worse taste in my mouth.
