    Justice League (Review)

    Justice League comes under the heading of super hero movies that takes itself too seriously for my tastes, yet it works. Yes the plot is the usual, super baddy has to find some things on earth to give him unlimited powers to then be "the ender of worlds" and all that, and some other predictable plot lines. There's also a lot of ground the movie has to cover by introducing new characters and updating the back story of existing characters, as well as develop the story. Yet, as superficial as the movie is forced to be, it does a commendable job of it and is obviously set up for future Justice League adventures and spin offs for the new characters and such. It's no Thor Ragnarok (best super hero movie I can remember) but fun and entertaining and the action, CGI, and a few good lines, makes it worth a watch. B+

    Still not buying whathername as Wonder Woman.
    It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.

    Why not? I think Wonder Women should be a bit more buff and curvy given my druthers and all, but I think she does a decent job of it. Ignoring her politics and such...They were even able to make the lamest of all super heroes, the Mothra of super heroes, Aquaman look cool, although his inclusion in this movie made no sense and he didn't do much of anything other than get his ass kicked by the baddie.

    Should have been made 10 years ago with Kate Beckinsale or Dita Von Teese. And politics aren't even a concern, Lynda Carter was a DD Democrat but she was still the last Wonder Woman.

    They ruined the Flash for me. It was obvious they were trying to hide poor cgi with excess speed force lightning. Absolute shit. Movie was mediocre.

    I'd have been ok with Kate Beckisale in her prime. Then again I'd still do naughty, naughty things to her, and that is just because of Underworld. I'm talking thing involving a a pint bottle of Hershey's Chocolate, a whip, and a weed whacker.

    I liked Justice League well enough. I did think it was a little better than Ragnarok, but then I've been more of a DC fan than Marvel since I was about 8. I couldn't figure out Aquaman's presence either, but for this movie the character was very well designed, and I've been a Jason Momoa fan since Stargate Atlantis (that's kind of ironic, huh?). Aquaman has his own standalone movie coming up later this year..it will be interesting to see if Momoa can carry a whole movie all by himself. I like Gal Gadot, but I agree that Wonder Woman ought to be a little bigger and a little more buff.

    I note all the Amazon extras in the background look more like an Amazon/Wonder Woman than Gal Gadot.

    Yeah. Robin Wright was well-cast as Antiope.

    Sadly that's Jason's gig anymore.


    I've always had an aversion to DC movies. Everyone 90% A GOD!!!! with the rest a "freak of science". Marvel is 95% freaks of science and 5% A GOD!! And the majority of the freaks of science is everyone trying to make another Super Solider.
