Fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman's selfless act, Bruce Wayne enlists the help of his newfound ally, Diana Prince, to face an even greater enemy. Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to find and recruit a team of metahumans to stand against this newly awakened threat. But despite the formation of this unprecedented league of heroes--Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg and The Flash--it may already be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.



Justice League was entertaining. Went to see it with my husband and 16-year-old daughter. My husband liked it more than Thor: Ragnarok, but I think that has more to do with Wonder Woman. 

Gotham City is just such a sad and dark place and the movies reflect that. Ezra Miller's Flash was the one bright spot. He was so freaking cute and had all the best lines. I was surprised at how much I liked Cyborg and the way they handled his backstory. Really hits you in the feels. I was a little disappointed with the depiction of Wonder Woman compared to the Wonder Woman movie. There were a lot of shots that focused on her butt...I mean, it is a nice one, but there was more emphasis on her looks in this movie. The Amazons wore two-piece armor so their bellies were exposed. But to be fair, Aquaman was shirtless so it kind of balances out. I like Ben Aflack as Bruce Wayne, but I'm not a fan of the Batman costume. It has no flexibility. I'm not sure he can even sit in that thing. He moves around like an action figure without any movable parts.

There were lots of great action scenes between the villain Steppenwolf (He has mommy issues.) and our Superheros. Thor: Ragnarok set the superhero movie bar kind of high for me and Justice League didn't quite reach it. But it looks great on the big screen so it is worth seeing.

*There are two extra scenes! Stay till all the credits are over :)

KATIE'S REVIEW

I didn't get all the same warm fuzzes Sharon and fam did. Not at all. I wanted to. It just didn't happen. That really does make me sad too. I may not be a big DC fan BUT I do love heroes and hot guys with their shirts off. *swoon for Aquaman!*

This movie was missing a ton of pieces when it came to story-line. The Amazon gals looked weak sauce, acted weak and fought weak which that right there really bugged me. The team overall just did not work for me, Batman was totally different in this movie as in any other movie I have ever seen the character. Even Val Kilmer did a better job. The new Flash was cute but got annoying just as quickly. Cyborg was the only one I actually liked and was invested in.

The CGI left much to be desired, what the Hades happened! Overall, the movie was middle of the road. I wanted better. Expected better. Didn't happen. That's how it goes sometimes.
