No, this is not a snide remark because it was A LOT. We just can’t say it was great though. 

Zack Snyder’s Justice League which stars Batman (Ben Affleck), Superman (Henry Cavill), Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot), Cyborg (Ray Fisher), Aquaman (Jason Momoa), and the Flash (Ezra Miller)โ€”as they try to save the world from Darkseid (Ray Porter), Steppenwolf (Ciarรกn Hinds), and their army of Parademons.

Summary of the Movie

Steppenwolf is in search of the three mother boxes that will enable him to unleash darkness and destroy the earth. 

In his quest for the said boxes, he encounters the Amazons, Atlanteans, and the Justice League.

Although Steppenwolf succeeds at getting all the boxes and synchronizes them, he is stopped by Flash, who reverses time, enabling Cyborg and Superman to separate the boxes. 

The Something That Was Zack Snyder’s Justice League

The movie was hella long. No movie – not even the best of the best – should be that long. This was how we looked after watching

So many scenes were unnecessary, like that scene where those girls were singing as Aquaman entered the river

The scene where Wonderwoman saved those school kids from terrorists, 

We know who Wonder Woman is. She had a fight scene at the end of Batman vs. Superman: we know how strong and fast she is.

The Atlanteans did the barest minimum to protect the mother box in their possession. 

The movie never really gave the impression that they were protecting it. Sure they had conversations about it but that wasn’t the vibe we got. 

Martian Manhunter couldn’t be bothered with helping the Justice League out. The dude was just out here being a registered emotional companion, consoling the bereaved.

The ending parts of the film were 

unnecessary. Maybe if this cinematic universe were to continue, it would all make sense, but for now?

It did have some nice parts

Cyborg, Flash, and Steppenwolf were the best parts of Zack Snyder’s Justice League.

Cyborg gave us a character arc, Flash made us laugh, and Steppenwolf gave us a plot. All three of them made the movie enjoyable.
