Justice League is fun, positive, optimistic, with the REAL Man of Steel!

Rating: 10/10 (7 February 2018)

This is the DC movie that I've been waiting for!! This is the only movie in the DC Cinematic Universe that I really, truly enjoyed.
Batman has a cool scene by himself beating up a bad guy, Wonder Woman has a great scene by herself rescuing people from a bank heist and bomb explosion. I liked the connection between Diana and Bruce.
Superman is back in a big way!! Henry Cavill finally feels like the real Man of Steel that we all know and love!! This is the Superman that I've been waiting for since 2006's Superman Returns. Cavill's Superman was finally confident, secure, hopeful, optimistic...it's like he's had a personality overall, in a good way! Clark and Lois had great chemistry, and it was great seeing Martha rejoice at Clark's return. I also enjoyed Danny Elfman's soundtrack , especially the original Batman theme and the original Superman theme.
I thought the film did a pretty good job at introducing Flash, Aquaman, and Cyborg but sometimes the humor felt forced and the bonding of the team didn't always work for me. Steppenwolf was a one-dimensional villain , and the ending fight between Superman and Steppenwolf should have been longer. The CGI on Superman's face was a HUGE distraction, ugh.
So this movie isn't perfect, but I find many of the criticisms of this movie to be empty and baseless. So many complained about Zack Snyder and Man of Steel and Batman v Superman, saying they were joyless, too serious, too dark, too long, etc. Now they criticize Justice League for being the opposite, for being fun, light-hearted, joyful, and positive. Some fans can't be satisfied.
Overall I absolutely enjoyed Justice League and I can rest assured that my kids will actually cheer for Superman and Batman in this one.
Positive. Optimistic. Happy. Finally, WB gets it right! Justice League is the anti-Batman v Superman...and I'm so glad!!
