So before other critics like Honest trailers start giving their reviews and exposing the directors flaws on the movie, I thought it would be nice to do a review to actually see the pros and cons that led to the scrappy rating on Rotten tomatoes and prospective major loss for Warner Bros. I mean they spent $600 million on this and still nothing to write home about.
So if you Havnt yet watched the movie and wouldn't want to get hints about what happened you should probably stop reading now.
So let's start with the pros, the cgi was well funded( I mean what do you expect with such a high budjet), the effects as some will say were good but excessive and made the characters lack originality. But in most parts like from the Atlantis battle to the war against the Amazon's......blah blah blah.... it was all quite good. The producers put a lot into it and it looked pretty real, but with marvel in competition good cgi doesn't get you anywhere, it is the story that matters and the beauty in how it all blends together.
So although DC tried to hide the fact that superman was going to be back in this sequel, it was obvious and as planned he did come back INVINSIBLE. I mean unlike in the animation, Justice League War, darkseid here was a joke to superman I mean the guy barely broke a sweat and after expecting a mano-e-mano fight, I got this.
Yeah, he didn't even get a punch. 😂
Going back to our long list of flaws which includes being predictable and as some may say boring, Let's look at Batman, the multi talented billionaire played by Ben Affleck. I mean I love that guys acting, he's a legend but he didn't really cut out as the the batman figure we were looking for(widely agreed) . I mean he was bossy and arrogant like the typical batman figure but I mean he doesn't do justice to the part like Gal Godot does the wonder Woman. He had the nice cars and the mad tech and a lot of money but just failed to be the Batman.
But when we go back to the story we see that the major con that keeps marvel at a good distance ahead is how well all they're stories connect and DC lacks that. Questions we ask like where was wonder Woman all those years after World War one, does it really take that long to recover from a break up, and where was the whole of DC when a crazy witch was trying to take over the world that they needed to use the suicide squad, I mean DC has a lot of questions to answer.
Again most people say it was a rip off, if you've watched homecoming you would know this scene. I mean it was an exact replica, car scene, pompous attitude and even the facial expression. It was like he was trying to be Tony Stark.
On to the flash, the only source of humor in the movie, with the frivolous attitude and often childish behavior, but there's not much to say atleast not till we see "flash movie", which I hope DC will eventually reach. And Cyborg which I really don't have much to say about.
In summary the movie was below what was expected and DC could have done a lot better. Please feel free to leave your comments below on other pros and cons, and follow and upvote the post. Thanks for reading.
Major agreement on Bruce Wayne being a copy of Tony Stark. The Flash was one of the only good parts of the movie because they just ripped off Spider-Man.
The villain was so absurdly forgettable. He’s just evil because he is, and doesn’t do anything notable or interesting. He just fights and makes threats.
You left out Aquaman, though, and he was the best character! I’m kinda hoping they give up on the DC universe as it is, focus on Aquaman and The Flash, and rebuild from there.
