(Review) Justice League
Nov. 27th, 2017 07:14 pmSo I saw the movie, going in with low expectations, especially after hearing that the movie is a box office flop and the reviews were mixed at best, but I was a bit skeptical of the reviews, as for some reason there are people out there eager to see DC and Warner Brothers fail, or just critics who hate the superhero genre in general and would like to see it gone. So I decided to go in with as open a mind as possible.
I was the superhero of the day! When the bridge ‘Enjoy The Show’ message between the ads and previews kept running in an endless loop and nothing changed nine minutes after the previews were supposed to start running, I went to the manager and informed him that something was wrong. I figured nine minutes was enough to wait! Five minutes after I returned the previews started, and the crowd was appreciative of my initiative. :)
I enjoyed more than I expected to. I give it a solid ‘B’. I thought about nudging it up to a ‘B+’, but let’s not get crazy! :) Anyway, it passed the Time Test for me: I never once looked at my phone to see what time it was!
Okay, the review:
( Spoilers Galore! )
So the movie is considered a box office flop right now. Where does that leave the DCEU? I've heard speculation that WB may scrap it, but they've got Aquaman in the can and Wonder Woman 2 greenlighted. Though, either one could be detached from the DCEU, especially Wonder Woman 2. Ans Shazam! could very easily be detached. Shouldn't be part of the main universe, anyway, just like it shouldn't be in the comics, IMO.
There are two post-credit scenes. Stay 'til the end!
