The worst after s.squad

Rating: 1/10 (17 November 2017)

The characters they introduce in the movie don't get much backstory, which might be due to the fact that Warner Brothers required this movie to be two hours exactly. They try to make the tone of this film less dark by adding in jokes, many of which didn't really land for me. Some one-liners they have in this film are kind of cheesy, like when Cyborg says "boo-yah" after beating the para demons and when Superman says "I like justice", it just felt weird at times. The CGI looked kind of cheap at times, especially on the villain Steppenwolf, who looked like a video game character. I also thought 2012 CGI on the Chitauri in the Avengers looked way better than the CGI on the para demons in this movie. Especially in the finale of the movie with the red sky, this movie looked like a video game a lot, and the action was chaotic and hard to follow. I also thought the heroes were sort of helpless before Superman arrived to beat down Steppenwolf, Wonder Woman especially was underpowered in this film. At least it's better in tone than Batman vs. Superman and a bit funnier than Suicide Squad.
