Review of Justice League (2017) by Alixen — 17 Nov 2017

This was one of the most enjoyable movies I've seen in a very long time, and has to be my favorite super hero movie of the year. The atmosphere and cinematography were top notch. Reshoots and CGI could perhaps have been better in places, but in what movie in this decade isn't that the case? I also missed the Zimmer music in places it would have fit nicely, including the cornfield scene where one of the Man of Steel pieces was used. That's all that really bothered me, other than the film could have perhaps been longer. Batman was a pleasure to watch. Wonder Woman has several amazing moments. The Flash was funny and endearing. Aquaman managed to actually make me interested in his upcoming film, and that alone is a feat, as he was never a character that interested me. A certain someone was the 'S'tar of it all, as I believe was always intended, and more how people wished him. Steppenwolf served his purpose of being a menacing plot device to frame the formation of the League, also.

Just seeing the League interact on screen, and mythical heroes duking it out in ways and on a scale you just don't see elsewhere, was a pleasure. I plan to see the movie several more times.
