News:: Review: Justice League

Warning: I'm going to discuss a thing that is obvious, but some may consider a spoiler so don't read if you've been in a cave for the entire marketing campaign of this movie. 

Well they did it, folks. DC made two movies in a row that don't suck. So... good for them. Well done. 

Justice League is not the mess it could have been, and that is actually saying a lot. The film was shot, reshot, lost Zack Snyder as a director, gained Joss Whedon, reshot again, removed mustaches, and then was mandated to come in under two hours by WB. Not to mention the fact that it had to introduce three entirely new heroes, establish a villain, expand a cinematic universe, and resurrect Superman (seriously, if you didn't know he was coming back stop reading).

With all that taken into consideration: bravo. Batman v. Superman was an incoherent mess, Man of Steel was tonally off, and even the fantastic Wonder Woman fell apart in the third act, so the fact that Justice League is a coherent film that's at the very least fun to watch actually stands as quite the accomplishment.

Now to tear it apart.
