I loved it ... laughed at every joke and had the neardiest time of my life.

Humans are naive, we are primitive beings, we don't really understand what we want. We might be under the impression that we want that new, shiny thing, but when that thing is finally ours we regret wanting it, start finding flaws in it and try to discard it. Because we are primitive beings and I know this because I experienced it, in myself for the first time and now I know. The feeling of satisfaction is only an illusion till the next shiny,new thing arrives to replace the old one. And once that happens it's difficult to go back. It is only by creating something new and completely different can one make a difference and establish a false sense of satisfaction amongst people.
The first time I saw Justice League I was brimming with excitement, I don't even remember the number of years I had waited for this to happen so I went in hoping to see,... I don't know something cathartic, maybe. Something that I could compare to the works of other directors that I love. So needless to say I came out of the movie theatre feeling a little disappointed. And as I lay in bed that night and I thought about the things that I disliked about the movie and except for #MUSTACHEGATE and some choppy editing to make the movie under 2 hours. I could not think of anything else. Just the fact that it seemed to resemble a few marvel movies and did-not have the dynamic storytelling of David Fincher or Darren Aronofsky cannot make a movie bad? And that too a movie that has characters that I adore. So decided to watch it again and now I understood why WB wanted it to be under 2 hours because it's easier to rewatch. Which seems like a dick move, but works, anyways I saw it the day after and I was waltzing out of the theatre.
Now that I did-not sit there comparing it to other movies and complaining about some scenes resembling other marvel movies. I f***ing loved it ... laughed at every joke and had the neardiest time of my life. Seriously this is a movie that will give, comicbook neards and superhero geek, the biggest orgasms of their lives. And will provide non comicbook buffs with ample entertainment through its visually stunning action pieces, inspirational characters and witty humor. And credit where credit is due, Zach Snyder, love him/hate him you cannot deny his visual language of creating "moments",well choreographed stylistic slow-motion scenes, is both unique and awesome. These "moments" are used elegantly in long action set pieces that are amazing to witness.
The only people to dislike this movie will be so called "movie critics" who are pretentious enough to dislike a movie just because their lives are sad . And seriously, you don't wanna be that guy? Do you?
See now, I know people will jump to conclusions and say stupid things like, the first scene of the movie was a total ripoff of Spiderman Homecoming and Steppenwolf had that Loki scene like in the first Avengers movie and why is DC making funny movies now? As if the creators of MARVEL movies are the first people on this planet ever to implement the "found footage" technique and add a few narcissistic dialogues for the arrogant bad guy.
But if you are a person who says these kinda things then you missed the whole point of the movie. It's not about that... it is about restoring hope, order, peace and harmony in a world without Superman. It is about the coming together of meta human(s), Demi-God(s) and a person who dresses like a bat, to save the world and restore the hope that was lost. Hope that the age of heroes is here and mankind will be safe even without Superman.
And boy was I digging the dynamism and the interactions of this team.
Bruce and Diana being the senior members got all the others together and lead form the front. Cyborg was all business and had his guard up in the beginning, as one may expect him to be after the changes that he goes through, but he found his ground and was comfortable in the end. I enjoyed every second of The Flash this movie gave me and Barry Allen was my favourite character in the movie. We're shown the traumas that these characters have faced. Some of it is beyond our understanding just because we've never had to face something that horrible but we can relate to some of it. We've all had to face the loss of a loved one and that emotion of grief always changes something. And it is shown beautifully, it gives these larger than life characters a sense of humanity and morality. Aquaman was given less screen time than the rest but he shined in the moments he was given.And that brings me to Superman. He was, I think, out of all the 3 DCEU movies he's been in , the closest to his comicbook self in this movie. The love he has for Lois, the concrete almost stupidly stubborn belief, in the good that humanity can do. He's Superman. If you can just focus on his eyes instead of his upper lip. You'll be fine.
Which brings me to the flaws. The CGI in some scenes could've have been better or just maybe unnecessary. The way they bring back Superman was a little... I don't you'll see.
Even hardcore marvel lovers should love this movie because if you don't then why do you like marvel movies? And if you don't like marvel movies how are you a marvel fanatic? A nice "Paradox" to have DC.
Enough said. PEACE
