I’d heard good things about this movie and after having watched, I think I can agree that the Snyder cut was the superior Justice League media. I say media because I struggle to call this a movie. It felt more like a miniseries than a movie. So this movie was decent, but allot a lot of time for it.

I’d watched the original Justice League movie years ago and I went back to my notes to see what I’d thought about the movie at the time. I think I’d found it choppy and a little trying too hard to be a Marvel movie. Knowing what I know now, that makes sense. The movie was likely always intended to be more in line with Zack Snyder’s Justice League. When he’d left Justice League the first time, Joss Whedon was hired to complete the film, Joss Whedon of MCU fame. Zack Snyder’s Justice League felt a lot more natural.

This movie was fine. It was something that was slightly different from the usual MCU film. I think this is probably what the original Suicide Squad movie was supposed to be, except that movie took itself too seriously (and also apparently had a lot of last minute changes that derailed its entire intended vision). Anyway this movie was a mindless superhero movie that had a bit of comedy. Like many modern superhero movies, it did have a political angle.
