Very Fun

Rating: 10/10 (20 November 2017)

I liked the movie.
It was a lot of fun. It wasn't just quips and Steppenwolff seemed like a real threat to the heroes.
Each member of the team had their moments, and they all felt important to the story and to the mission, and I loved the stuff with Superman. When he showed up in the final fight, it was kind of like when the school bully is picking on the kids (the Justice League), and then the older brother of one of the bullied kids shows up and is a bigger bad ass than the villain.
Flash was funny, and I laughed at the Lasso of Truth stuff with Aquaman. I loved when Flash first saw the Batcave.
Affleck is still a great Batman, and Gal Gadot was the perfect choice for Diana.
I'm glad Cyborg wasn't a goofball like in the Teen Titans Go comic. In the 80s New Teen Titans books (glad my brother is a comic geek with a huge collection, those stories are a great read), Victor wasn't a jokey goof, he had layers, and it looks like they went this direction with the movie version, and I hope to see more of him.
I felt like this movie had the same issue the Avengers movie had. In terms of story it's pretty basic. Big threat, needs a team to stop it, team fights (except this time the team actually fights the main villain), saves the day. The difference is they didn't make the villain a joke telling robot or a Daddy's boy like Avengers 1 and 2.
I appreciate that the jokes weren't the big focus of the film. I hate comedies, and a joke here or there in a movie is good, but when the movie is just jokes with the rest of the stuff feeling like the side focus, it dumbs down movies. It's why I walked out an hour into Thor: Ragnarok. I waited out in the car while my boyfriend watched the rest.
This movie was good. I had fun watching it. Great to get to see Gal Gadot in two movies in one year as Wonder Woman. Diana's awesome.
One scene in particular I want to make a wallpaper for my laptop for is the look on Barry's face when Superman looks at him while he's running at Super Speed. Cracked me up.
I rate movies based off how much enjoyment I had watching them. So since I had fun watching this, I give it a 10. Action 10. Story 5 (like I said, team up movies can only have basic plots because they're trying to give everyone screen time so the focus gets a bit straightforward). Characters 10
