A disappointment, but not a waste of time.

Rating: 2/10 (20 June 2016)

I'll admit that I liked Man of Steel far more than I expected, and definitely more than the average comic book fan. While I enjoyed the new take on the characters in that film however, I found myself not even being able to take the ones in this film seriously. The two exceptions to this however are Ben Affleck as Batman and Jeremy Irons as Alfred, both bring a certain atmosphere to this story that really do make them the only saving grace. They weren't enough to make me love this movie though, and the overall tone just makes me feel like DC needs a break. I don't think I've been so disappointed with a film since The Hobbit part three. All I can say is that I hope Suicide Squad revitalizes my love for the DC universe. If not, then I don't think I'll be back till these movies have nothing to do with Zach Snyder, Christopher Nolan, and David S. Goyer.
