Zack Snyder’s Justice League 7/10.

Watched it with the gf last night.

It was alright, but man these movies just validate for me how these comic movies just don't work on the big screen.

They're corny, and generally comic book villains in DC have terrible motivations. This makes it hard to understand what the villain's true goal is. I feel like Marvel did a better job with Thanos's reasonings, where as with Darkseid his need for the MacGuffin didn't make any sense, why does he need to rule every universe? He seems already supremely powerful, and has everything he needs.

The movie really proves that these characters are always better in their own films, Batman especially. He seems tacked on in this film, a few times we actually laughed out loud at him in these battles against demigods with his little bat plane and bat mobile

Sort of like Hawkeye/Black Window/Captain America in the Avengers.

Severely underpowered characters thrown in to make the fans happy, they just don't fit into these crisis/buddy up films.
