A Great Return to what Made DC So Great

Rating: 10/10 (14 October 2019)

DC was my favorite producer of films back in the day of "The Dark Night." Their attraction to dark realism was fascinating, and it contrasted splendidly with Marvel's approach.
Unfortunately, DC got stuck in the rut of a constant need for useless comedy. The movies dragged on, filled with boring, flat characters, bloodless "fights" (which were really just flashing lights on a mostly black background), and really poor attempts at comedy. The need for the movies to be appealing to children didn't help either.
In this film, there are certainly some vaguely comedic elements, but the overall theme is dark and suspenseful; there is a constant tension present, which, along with the amazing titular character (acted beautifully) made this film truly spectacular.
