A lesson in history

Rating: 5/10 (26 December 2017)

JL is not on the same level of campiness, like a Batman Forever, Batman & Robin, or Batman 66. However, there is a certain warm and comfortable nostalgic feeling to this movie. Despite the familiarity, this is better watched with a general understanding of the lore/comics/cartoons, etc.
While JL does not take itself seriously, I understand there was a tonal change DC Films was looking to make, in regards to how dark the previous movies were. I will admit the tonal change in this movie does come off as abrupt.
That being said, my only real complaint at this point is the fact that Superman did not compete with The Flash on foot. I remember finding that comic book in an antique shop when I was a kid, and I'll never forget the cover depicting The Flash racing against Superman.
I had so much fun with this movie, and I hope others can enjoy it for what it is. Despite that, I'm getting the feeling that Justice League 2 either won't happen or will also be completely different than this movie.
It's not the best movie ever, I liked BvS better, but it's a modern Super Friends, and I loved Super Friends growing up. Either way, holy crap, I'm glad this exists, and it's as good as it is.
