Warner Bros has a lot riding on "Batman v. Superman"
“Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice” is opening this weekend.

The film brought in an impressive $27.7 million from early screenings Thursday night, but critics haven’t been kind. We talked with entertainment corespondent Adriene Hill about the stakes and whether we’ve hit superhero saturation.
