Despite initial negative reviews Batman V Superman has been a hit at the US box office.
The film, starring Henry Cavill and Ben Affleck, has made €18.49 million over the Easter weekend.
That's a feat rarely achieved by even the biggest blockbusters within six days of worldwide release.
Warner Bros distribution chief Veronika Kwan Vandenberg bragged today: "We're so proud that Batman v Superman has become the must-see event film of the season for fans the world over.
