I liked it, but I won't say I loved it only because WB messed it up by hiring Joss Whedon and Danny Elfman

Rating: 8/10 (20 November 2017)

(MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS!!) I was looking forward to Justice League since the day Man of Steel (MoS) was announced. Zack Snyder did the unthinkable with MoS. He made a movie that was beautiful on so many levels. Though there were haters, but for those who really understood the movie loved every aspect of it. Zack Synder is an remarkable film maker and dares to do things that most people of afraid of. He knows his stuff, he knows his comics, he knows his lore.
He showed us the journey of an alien sent to an unknown world, who was taught to be human by his parents and who is doubtful of the gifts he has and how he can use them to save the world. This was further explored by Batman Vs. Superman – Dawn of Justice (BvS) where he was perceived as a threat by so many, but still gave up his life for saving those very doubters. BvS also gave us The Batman that we all yearned for a very long time. His initial doubts about Superman showed his experience of how people with power can be. The 'Martha' moment, I believe is the most misunderstood scene by people. The moments of how Superman made a believer out of Batman – these things are what good story telling is all about and Zack Snyder excelled at those. (Hate me for that haters. You don't mean anything). His vision was beautiful which was enhanced by the epic background score of Hans Zimmer (HZ) and Junkie XL (Tom Holkenborg) (JXL).
Coming down to final part of the Zack Snyder's Trilogy – Justice League, the studio after Snyder's exit dumbed down the movie in a move for trying to please the critics but rather ended up changing the whole theme continuity that started with MoS and BvS. I loved both of those movies and was looking forward to this one.
Though I liked the movie, I won't essentially say that I loved it for the following reasons:
1. Unnecessary editing for shortening the run-time. A tonne of story developing scenes were lost because of this decision. Though Joss Whedon is a good film maker, he should not have changed the tone of the movie and continued with Zack Snyder's vision, his style and his version of the movie. He should have helped - not change.
2. The tone changing actually felt drastic in compared to MoS and BvS. In trying to please the critics they unnecessarily added some of the "funny" moments. The one liner sequences shown in the trailers were already in tune with the comic and the animated movies.
3. Due to the editing some of the story arcs specially for The Flash, Cyborg and Aquaman got left out that would have later helped when their solo movies are out.
4. Also, after the resurrection of Superman, his turmoil of coming back from being dead, the question to himself - why he has to get back to saving the world. These are some of the scenes that are parallel / referential to MoS when he goes to the church to find answers and to BvS where Wonder Woman who left the mantel of being a savior 100 years ago comes back to help Batman and Superman when they are faced with Doomsday. When thinking of this and understanding his story telling style, I am sure Zack Snyder would have shot these scenes for further depth to the movie. Superman's appearance in the final version felt more just to show the Trinity as founding members of Justice League.
5. This has to be the most stupid decisions I feel WB took, and that was to hire Danny Elfman. He was nowhere near to what Hans Zimmer and Junkie XL had accomplished with MoS and BvS. He single-handedly ruined it. First by being and egotistical a** by stating that his version of The Batman was the true Batman theme. Secondly, not incorporating Wonder Woman's and Superman's themes made by HZ and JXL. Rupert Gregson-Williams did a good job in Wonder Woman. I wonder why the studio didn't hire him in the first place after JXL quit.
WB should release the extended version or rather should title it as Justice League - the original Zack Snyder's vision along with JXL's background score.
The score of 8/10 is for Zack Snyder's vision.
