Wow. What the heck was this???

Rating: 4/10 (22 March 2018)

I went in with high expectations -- figuring it would be just a step below the Avengers. It failed to live up to my expectations. First of all, Ben Affleck is a terrible batman. The worst batman ever. I highly doubt there will ever be a worse batman. Wonder Woman was decent. These other people... who are they? They show up without getting enough of a story on them -- how can we care about them? Flash, Cyborg, Aquaman... they were cardboard cutouts. Steppenwolf? Really. There was no better bad guy than this clown, who wouldn't have been impressive even if they hadn't seemingly gone out of their way to make him boring. What happened to Darkseid? That was what I was watching for. Then again, they would have messed him up, so maybe I am glad he did not show up. This is a re-skinned Suicide Squad. Characters we don't know or care about, and a less-than-one-dimensional villain. This movie tried to rip-off the Avengers formula and failed miserably. Just rent it. Or do not watch it at all, that may be better. This is probably the end of the road for this DC endeavor -- time to reboot the whole thing.
