Absolute Mess

Rating: 6/10 (18 November 2017)

The most important movie in the DCEU? Yes. The best movie? NO! I dare to say that the movie is a total mess. BvS was not a good movie, but this one is even worse. Yes, I'm not kidding, there was not a single moment in the movie that I care about something or I'm under pressure about what's happening.
Batman was worse portrayed off than BvS, all he did was showing his new outfits, gadgets and make his traditional jumps. After Steppenwolf and Flash he got probably the dumbest replicas in the movie. Wonder Woman showed her ass and played the role of a leader more than Batman, but she did nothing special at all. I do not think there is a need to say that the movie is a full of slow-motion moments, and right at the beginning of the movie it has an unrealistic stupid Wonder Woman scene made in this way. Surprisingly, Cyborg was the best-represented character...before they started working together, when he also faded against the backdrop of what's going on. Some people will say that Flash is "very good and fun", it was very flat for me. Whatever you tell me Flash has never been so stupid in the comics, Bart Allen yes, but Barry Allen never. Aquaman shine with nothing except his badass vision. I was hoping for him to do something memorable, but the only thing we saw were slow motion scenes, watching him how wet and strong it's... the best we got was the quote from the trailer "I can dig it" and then, when sitting on the Batmobile, he says something relatively good.
The villain? Yeah, that's the worst villain I have ever seen in a movie, even Tommy Lee Jones as Two-Faced from Batman Forever (1995) was a better villain. Completely CGI villain with a banal motivation to conquer the world. The only thing Steppenwolf wins in my eyes is that he is the winner of the prize - "Author of the dumbest speeches in the movie". MOTHER...sounds stupid, it was finally clear that Overpowered Superman should intervene to defeat the "big" villain. Plus the parademons do not die, they still exist, and the whole film does nothing about them in the end.
Superman? Perhaps you all wonder how he's back in the movie...honestly all the theories that were written were light years better than what actually happened. Superman was revived by one of the Mother Boxes(yeah sounds lame) and confronted the whole league. Of course Batman got a "trap" that he could not resist - Lois Lane, after which everything was in order. Ooh ... I would have forgotten that the movie started with Superman and his mustache and an attempt to get rid of it through CGI, but as you guess, when I say it to you, it is evident, IT CAN'T BE UNSEEN, following a time in which it's again visible is his resurrection, simply can not be omitted.
Is there a Green Lantern? Yes, but it's just a few seconds and is not one of the main ones, it's just a flashback from the past war with Steppenwolf to show you that we'll see a new member of the league in the future. In the whole movie, it was not explained to anyone exactly what the three mother boxes can do, and why the benefit is so valuable, but everyone can steal them...The story was dumb, the League was gathered in a very controversial way. Humor was forced, if I laughed at something in the whole movie, it was 1 or 2 times maximum, everything else was a tragedy.
The movie is full of CGI and all the time you can not explain what is happening just as you can not explain why the "big threat" in the movie and its lair gathers the mothers boxes in an abandoned place in Russia where lives only one family that will then be rescued by Flash ... by pushing a car.
The movie has two post-credit scenes, the first one is fun and the second is something that DC needs to build in its Cinematic Universe in the future, but I do not see how it will happen if they continue to make such weak movies. I'm not a hater, but DC have some of the most famous heroes and even more famous villains, and the movies they make so far are insult to the fans. There are scenes in the movie that have no explanation, yeah I understand that these are fictional characters, and in the comicbook world everything is possible, but Flash falls while running fast and Batman catches him ... this is just one of many examples, for which I do not think to write.
I can say a lot, but honestly it is not worth it. I can't appreciate the movie higher than 5.5 or 6/10.
