Now the last time I did a review I did the last Wolverine film and since then there's been a lot happening with rumours of Fox being purchased by Disney just to get the Fantastic Four and the X-men which shows that they are very desperate to get those characters and put them into the MCU which has been on the screens for almost 10 years now. Anyway, that's one worrying factor in Superhero films here's the film that by what the media is saying could make the future of the DC universe change forever. Yes, I mean Justice League.
Now before I start I want to say I have wanted a Justice League film since I watched the animated series and when the Avengers came out it was a complete gamechanger. So when I heard DC will do there own I was hoping when they got to a Justice League film that it would be the same, shamefully that didn't happen but it might be the second best movie in the DCEU so far which, to be honest by the way their movies are going that's not the greatest place to be at the moment. But then again at least Wonder Woman was good and everyone was worried about that.
Now let's begin, it starts at least a year after the events of B vs S and much has changed. Batman's trying to investigate these disappearances and Wonder Woman works in a museum. While the others are out of hiding. One problem I have with this movie is you sort of have to forget events from the last as it portray's Superman as this g-d like character which to be far he saved everyone just in a very questioning way.
Anyway, crime increases and whats worse is that the main villain Steppenwolf voiced by Irish actor Ciaran Hinds comes to Earth to locate three motherboxes that together can recreate the world in his image. This action is called the unity. The Justice League eventually come together to stop him and use the last remaining motherbox to revive Superman, this happens and he turns on the Justice League and Lois Lane is used to make him calm down as he almost kills every member of the Justice League.
The League go to Russia and stop Steppenwolf from using the Unity, Superman returns after having calmed down and helps them defeat Steppenwolf and turn his Parademons against him and is sent to who knows where. All the heroes are reunited and are able to live happy lives until the next event in the DCEU. There is also an after credits scene of Lex Luthor having escaped Arkham Asylum and having talks of forming the Legion of Doom or the Injustice League with the help of Deathstroke portrayed by Joe Manganiello.
The overall movie is alright there is nothing that special and it is nothing like there version of the Avengers which is a shame because if they got all the solo movies done first then it might have worked instead of just dragging them into the movie but to be fair they did introduce them into the last movie so that was good. The villain contributed nothing to the plot as he kept saying 'mother' and other lines that didn't make sense. My main issue is that the story was a bit of a mess as it was very rushed and not all the scenes made complete sense which was a major issue.
I'd give Justice League a 6.5/10. Good new characters, enjoyable to watch at times, disorganised plot.
