Justice League (2017): I never expected DC would have such downfall whereas Marvel is building an unanimous string base allover the world.I may not be a fan of any super-hero films but I used to love Justice League series in my childhood.Even the animated films of DC used to provide enough fun but what happened now?While Man of Steel is below average,I thought BvS is pretty decent compared to its negative reception,Suicide Squad wasted its amazing potential and Wonder Woman is the only film which put DC on a success track.But,I was proved wrong that DC have no idea of doing justice to Justice League..The only thing DC got right till now is casting of Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman.
Plot: The Superman (Henry Cavill) has perished, and the world is in peril. Still haunted by visions of an apocalyptic future, Bruce Wayne (Ben Affleck) continues to investigate Earth's metahumans, and along with Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot) recruits a speedster named Barry Allen a.k.a. The Flash (Ezra Miller), a water-powered Arthur Curry a.k.a. Aquaman (Jason Momoa), and cybernetically enhanced Victor Stone a.k.a. Cyborg (Ray Fisher) to form a ragtag team. Unfortunately, Bruce's visions start to become fully realized with the arrival of Steppenwolf (Ciarán Hinds) and his Parademons - an alien force hunting three hidden devices known as Mother Boxes in hopes or reshaping the world. Knowing that their help is needed, Earth's hidden champions come out of the shadows to form an uneasy alliance and usher in a new age of heroes.
My Review: Five films into the DCEU, the DC brains trust should have their s*it together by now. They should have an understanding of why their films are or aren't working as well as they could, i.e. they should have some idea as to why Wonder Woman worked but Man Of Steel, BvS:DoJ and Suicide Squad didn't.
While previous DC films tried to be too serious,they tried to change into Marvel's way of generating comedy among characters.It rarely worked in Suicide Squad whereas Wonder Woman has good fun moments.But Justice League tries to look too cool which backfired very badly.Miller gets the bulk of the best lines although Momoa and Affleck trade a few zingers. These comedy moments are the only part which makes us bear this mess.
The major drawback is in the storytelling and structuring. The efforts of introducing new characters, existing characters' motivations, and the intricacies of plot (with its triple MacGuffin) is almost too much for the first half of the film. The film struggles to get any real momentum going as Batman and Wonder Woman try to put their team together, while slotting in some action set pieces, and detailing who and what the Big Bad is (who himself is one of the worst villains I had ever seen in a super-hero film).Aside from a few jokes – which unfortunately don't always land where they're supposed to – and a handful of enticing action sequences – especially the ones surrounding Flash and Wonder Woman – the film, as a whole, feels simplistic in structure and lazy in execution, with the story lacking substance, ingenuity and enough heart to leave a lasting impression.
What works best in Justice League is the characterisations. These are popular superheroes for a reason, and they are well realised on the screen. Casting has never been a problem in the DCEU and again they nail it. Gadot was born to be Wonder Woman.She is undeniably the true star of the show.The film's smartest move is to recognise that Gadot is the beating heart of this enterprise. And given that this enterprise rests on a fairly straightforward idea, that a dark world needs hope above all else, you can't do much better than giving people the luminescent Israeli with the wide smile and twinkley eye.Miller – the film's main source for comic relief – and Momoa as the raggedy Aquaman, delivering engaging performances leaving Fisher's Cyborg as the least interesting of the lot.Affleck and Cavill still remains insipid.
So,Justice League is one of the most disappointing super-hero film of all time and it could have been worse if not for Gal Gadot's tremendous performance and Ezra Miller's comic relief.
My rating 5.25/10
