— -- Someone had to do it, and that critic had to be Mr Sunday Movies.

The acclaimed critic featured on YouTube has been giving fans snarky, fun-filled movie reviews for years, and he offered up a fun bonus for "Batman v Superman" -- a kill count for the new Dark Knight.

If you noticed, Bruce Wayne certainly broke his "one rule" in the latest film featuring Batman, but just how much did he send bad guys packing?

Well, the clip starts off fast and furious, with Ben Affleck in the Batmobile taking out gangsters using gadgets and later disposing of them with the cannons on his automobile.

The count ends at 21, and that assumes that anyone getting run over by a car or tossed a thousand feet in the air is actually dead. So it's an estimate.

It's still comic books, and it's supposed to be fun, which is what this video is all about. The video even features characters from past Batman films. Still, no wonder Superman was so upset in the movie and aimed to stop Wayne's reign of torture in Gotham, even one aimed at villains.

It's safe to say "Batman v Superman" director Zack Snyder actually is laughing at this clip, given that's he referenced past such videos, including Nolan's Batman.

"There’s a great YouTube video that shows all the kills in the Christopher Nolan movies even though we would perceive them as movies where he doesn’t kill anyone," he told Hey U Guys in March in promotion of the film. "So, I tried to do it by proxy. Shoot the car they’re in, the car blows up. Or the grenade would go off in the guy’s hand, or when he shoots the tank and the guy pretty much lights the tank [himself]. I perceive it as him not killing directly."

This new video from Mr Sunday Movies came about as the digital version of "Batman v Superman," the ultimate cut with 30 extra minutes of film, was released last week.
