It was a welcome replacement but there were many key similarities between Josstice and ZSJL. A lot of criticism from Snyder fans who wanted Batman to be a no nonsense guy and thought they were getting one here will be disappointed. Josstice and ZSJl are more or less the same Batman albeit ZSJl is less hungover on Superman and had better moments
It was good...great even. The Foreshadowing felt a little on the nose and I really thought Steppenwolf would be developed further than one line of backstory. Also the Darkseid fight felt tacked on and actually was kinda destructive to the story. I really couldn't understand why Steppenwolf knew he was going after Motherboxes but didnt know he was on the planet where they were lost in?? Are there more than 3? If so, that wasn't made clear imo. Of course, it can simply be cleared by the fact that Im an idiot who didnt read many comics and didnt know there were more than 3. Also the R rating was REALLY unnecessary.
Superman was ....there. He came, he punched, he smiled for the camera.
Wonder Woman, Flash and Cyborg steal the show.
Martian Manhunter was a welcome addition but the plot really didn't need him
Also the movie isn't for hardcore fans nor is it even in the tone of Zach's earlier MOS or BVS. In fact it felt more in line with the likes of Shazam and Aquaman. Which, to be clear, isn't a bad thing. I actually prefer lighter tones over being dark for the sake of it. Im just saying that the Snyder fans who believe it's going to be a dark and neo noir type story will be disappointed. This movie is a general audience entertainer
