THERE ARE SOME SPOILERS IN THE REVIEW.
With Wonder Woman being a summer box office hit and winning the hearts of the audience and critics for showing what a superhero film is supposed to be, the Amazon warrior reunites with other superheroes to stop an impending enemy who has rose from its slumber and ready to rule the world. To prevent such catastrophic mayhem, a team led by Batman is formed to prepare themselves to face a greatest threat. As united as what the team is supposedly represented, Justice League sadly did not suit up well to at least provide us a decency of introducing the heroes properly.
Justice League has been known for being placed in such hell development and to finally debut the unprecedented heroes this year without carrying out the right direction of the story made me felt the film was shamed. The film was sheepishly filmed and cut, making the flow of the story rather again abrupt like its predecessor, Batman VS Superman: Dawn of Justice. To say the flow of the story was abrupt is an understatement. Not only was the story chopped and served in such wrong fashion, but the vision and goal of where the film should be proceeded, gave me a headache.
Despite the clashing vision, goal and direction of the story overall, there are some good and bad aspects of Justice League that I would briefly mentioned. The characterisation of the superheroes has come a long way as they are much livelier compared to the previous ones and are the saviour of the film itself when things seem to get murky along the course. While the film tried its best to make this story take a darker toll, unfortunately it seems that the antagonist looked hideous instead of shivering one’s soul as what an antagonist is supposed to do. As much as I also like how the Batman was introduced in the film with the music echoing the tribute to the Batman franchise and television series, it soon went downhill with the plot that makes you feel unconnected especially unnecessary scenes towards the ending.
In conclusion, Justice League could have been a great film with such well-casted superheroes and crazy blowing effects in the action sequences. However, the negligence of the screenwriting throws the film off and went such downhill that you, as an audience member, do ask yourself: What was the story even all about? If Justice League was a television series, then this film can serve as a pilot episode. With all my heart, I hope the sequel would make up for the lack of decency this film served and for truth to be told…the dialogues in the film were somewhat inaudible…
Ratings: 5/10
