Epic!

Rating: 9/10 (1 July 2016)

I made the mistake of listening to the reviews and missed this one at the theater. I am so sorry I did. This film has it all! Plenty of action and a fantastic beginning to the formation of The Justice League. Those who are comparing this to The Avengers are comparing apples and oranges. It's like trying to compare Star Wars and Star Trek. Two completely different mythologies here folks. If you aren't ready to accept that, then get off the bus. From start to finish I enjoyed this film. They did a wonderful job of setting up each character in the time that was available, and have done it in such a way that makes sequels inevitable. For which I cannot wait. I won't give away any details in case anyone else was misled as I was into not seeing this at the theater, but I will say that my only gripe with this movie was Lex Luthor. They tried too hard to blend him with The Joker, which doesn't work. This is what I think may have actually turned a lot of people off. But over all what a movie! Don't believe the haters. Oh, and Ben Affleck, fantastic as Batman. (Never thought I'd hear myself say that.) Don't wait till everyone is in bed, you'll want to watch this at full volume!
