As with any project where the director has no checks or balances, there are problems.

Zack Snyder's Justice League shows Snyder's evolution from a director known for emphasizing style over substance to a man who understands why we love superhero myths, whether they live in the DC Universe or Marvel's.

It's a better bad film, full of CGI shenanigans.

As much as some of the scenes made me, a casual DC Universe fan, gasp, the film's brutal length and scattershot storytelling induce more headaches than thrills.

I'm not saying superhero movies or comic book movies can't have the range. I'm just saying I'm not sure that Snyder does.

This film is infinitely better. Zack Snyder's Justice League is a deeper, richer version.

4d agoVisually stunning and thrillingly dark, the "Snyder Cut" is an ambitious and admirable cinematic experience - the most impressive superhero film since Nolan's Dark Knight series. While its writing and attempts at humor don't always hit the mark, and the film is stronger in its first 3/4 than its weaker finale, "Snyder Cut" is overall a satisfying watch that deserves the hype.Matthew S Super Reviewer

5d agoZack Snyder's Ultimate Cut of 'BvS' reminded us that he is genuinely committed to fleshing out his jaw-dropping, orgasmic visuals with mythical character building, engrossing themes, and compounding sense of purpose. Despite the drastic uphill climb production-wise, 'Justice League's retooling has paid off spectacularly and the Snyder Cut deserves to stand as a benchmark of commitment to craft and vision. Back in 2014, Snyder and Chris Terrio prepared 'Justice League' as a 4 hour-plus epic that would function as 2 separate films. Seven years later, they've come as full circle as they can. As far as popular comicbook cinema goes, the Snyderverse has always been the antithesis to the MCU formula - the jazz to their squareness. Its strengths lay in its edge, its risks, its sense of legitimate danger, and its lofty blows of philosophical weight - all of which have peaked with the latest effort: a bracingly coherent, (not gratuitously) violent, gravitas-loaded opera reminiscent of the spine-tingling chills Watchmen delivers. Featuring an ensemble of characters - both human and superhuman - grappling with elements of loss, grief, and redemption, it's difficult to not to feel what was pushing Snyder during this project; the closing credits feature the same version of 'Hallelujah' performed at his daughter's funeral. That really hits home. Joss Whedon's hack job reshoots, hokey one-liners, and rudimentary character motives have been satisfyingly trashed. Cyborg's arc been restored as the backbone of this particular saga, we get more of the teamwork between Diana and Bruce, more of both Martha's and Lois's coping with grief post-Clark, fewer gratuitous ass-focused shots of Diana, stronger ties to the resolute themes introduced in 'Man of Steel', we contemplate the ominous repercussions of Superman's rebirth, and Darkseid's now back in the mix, establishing a clear foundation for a new series direction. Snyder's excessive slo-mo has never really bothered me; he wants us to bask in his breathtaking images and I welcome his invitations. It's fashionable (and tired) to criticize him for it. At the end of the day, I trust him with these stories, I trust him with these characters, and he has imbued the kind of thunderous, god-like iconography into my favorite superheroes that will last me a lifetime. I can only pray this isn't his last crack at the DCEU. Justice is finally served!!Marisol M Super Reviewer

6d agoJustice League - The Snyder Cut - A+ It's been a long time since I've seen such a methodical and well told story. Every detail works with every other part of this movie. Everything has a logical background. Stephen Wolf is elevated from a two-bit CGI puppet to a fleshed out villain with a complete backstory and motivation. Even his costuming is now layered and incredibly more realistic. Every detail of the original movie has been polished, expanded upon and improved. Even the removal of the jokes fits this now single-image movie. This DCU is dark but the heroes, are heroes now. This story skips the virtue signaling of rescuing civilians and instead puts it's fights in isolated areas and concentrates of the struggle of good versus evil. There are no new main characters but the number of fringe characters that were added makes the DCU seem bigger and more populated. A lot of fan service was added, things that fans complained about with the original movie that they either completely adopted or quashed entirely and went strongly with another theme. The movie is now 4 hours, but it is mercifully divided in acts, which make a good point to take a break, or stop and resume another day. I split the viewing into two days. The original Justice League was okay. The Snyder Cut is simply amazing.Mark C Super Reviewer
