It wasn't amazing but it was pretty good I felt like it was a mostly mediocre film, that kind of got vastly overpraised because it was the first film in the crossover DCU that wasn't complete shit, and because of the mileage they milked out of the female lead (WOMG BESTEST FILM EVAR!). It definitely feels like, if it had been part of the MCU instead, and had a male lead, it wouldn't have even remotely gotten the amount of praise it did. In a lot of ways, it kind of felt like a lamer retread of Captain America 1, just with an earlier war and done less effectively. It wasn't a terrible film. But it wasn't a great film, either. Unfortunately, it's still right up there towards the top of the list for "Best DCU Films" with Aquaman as the only real competition (and maybe Shazam, but I'm still not sure if that technically counts as part of the full DCU right now, because I'm not sure Warner Bros knows either), because everything else is just so bad. Though speaking of bad DC films, Suicide Squad 2 apparently announced the full cast list today. And in news that most people will completely miss, but comic nerds may pick up on, John Cena is essentially playing the character who was the original model for The Comedian in Watchmen. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family ...
