Close but no cigar

Rating: 5/10 (4 December 2017)

I went in really wanting to like Justice League. I thought Wonder Woman was great, Man of Steel was good, and BVS was better than most people thought. The less said about Suicide Squad the better. Unfortunately, there's just too much going on, too many characters hastily introduced, and no stakes or serious villain for these characters to contend with. I think DC should have waited a few more years on this one. We needed individual films for these heroes so this thing wouldn't feel so jam-packed. That said, there's some good action and Gal Gadot is a star.
