One of the worst movies I have seen at the cinema

Rating: 2/10 (20 November 2017)

I think the only word I can use to describe this film is disappointment. The characterization of the existing characters (Superman, Batman and Wonder woman was poor) and the remaining characters were very one dimensional. In my opinion there are two directions a super hero movie can take. First, add in plenty of humour and likable characters like the Marvel movies (particularly Guardians and the recent Thor movie). Alternatively you can make a gritty dark movie like the Dark knight. The Justice League and the DCEA in general fails at both of these things. delivering something that feels dated, lacks any kind of emotional connection or any suspense and horror. The villain in this movie was very poorly constructed and was almost identical to Ares (the villain from Wonder Woman).
This brings me on to my final gripe of the movie: Wonder Woman. DC is holding up wonder woman as a feminist icon and yet 1. Why is she not recruiting further women to the team (the female green lantern or black canary would make valuable additions to the team) 2. Why is is that all the men wear suits that make sense to actually protect their bodies and she is still given a skimpy costume that looks like something someone would have come up with the the 70s.
So if you want to go see a dated film, watch the Christopher Reed superman because it is a thousand times better than this rubbish.
