DC has been trying to compete with only three. These are incredibly packed movies, and the lack of clear connective tissue between them has made it difficult to bring either critics or even general audiences up to speed, especially when the MCU has been able to smoothly transition into that shared universe.
It was a different take on Superman, to say the least. Unfortunately, this was ultimately a poor decision for building the brand.
Man of Steel neither succeeded in laying the foundation for a cinematic universe that could easily expand, nor did it serve as an advertisement for the comics. It was awful on two fronts.
That doesn't even mention that the greatest flaws and why they earn all those bad reviews and scorn from general audiences is the fact that they hire BAD directors to shoot terrible and rushed scripts.
Put it together and it's easy to see why most non DC fanboys HATE the DCEU after three lousy movies.
They must reboot and give up this madness. -

I think general audiences hated this movie and BvS even more than the critics did. No way even 25% of the population liked this garbage. And now we are learning that both lost money and that Nolan was more involved in Man of Steel than anyone wants to admit now after the fact. He's hiding from this mess like any smart person would do.

It's not like critics are in vacuums. They simply reflected how much everyone hates this effort. There's no disconnect except in the delusional minds of fans you are clearly in shock and fooling themselves at this point and really any point where they have tried to defend the indefensible.
