Hawke gives a subdued, yet effective and chilling performance as the Grabber. The character isn't overplayed thankfully, which makes him more...sinister.

If you're a fan of Man of Steel and Batman v Superman, you will definitely be happy as it rounds out the story quite well and offers possibilities to move forward.
