Zack Snyder's Justice League, often referred to as the "Snyder Cut," is the 2021 director's cut of the 2017 American superhero film Justice League. It presents Justice League-the fifth film of the DC Extended Universe (DCEU) and based on the DC Comics superhero team of the same name-as director Zack Snyder had intended it before he left the production.
Like the theatrical release, Zack Snyder's Justice League follows the Justice League-Batman (Ben Affleck), Superman (Henry Cavill), Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot), Cyborg (Ray Fisher), Aquaman (Jason Momoa), and the Flash (Ezra Miller)-as they attempt to save the world from the catastrophic threat of Darkseid (Ray Porter), Steppenwolf (Ciarán Hinds), and their army of Parademons.
So is Snyder now saying that the general guy was the Martian manhunter all along? Hmm. Funny that was never even hinted at in the previous two films.
He mentioned it in the commentary on BvS ultimate cut. So he knew for some time I guess
@@mikekgta maybe he should've included it in the film then, rather than have it just look like out of the blue fan service?
I don't know the character very well (most memories were from the super powers team as a kid), but he seems like a doctor manhattan type... lots of power but very lurky, aloof... and the question is does that mean he's not much of a hero? or it is like he's busy doing stuff on other planets and can't intervene on earth for some reason?
@@orangesaremyfavoritefruit6451 why was Hunter even in any of this? A green lantern would have been a better choice. There was a green lantern in the very beginning
@@orangesaremyfavoritefruit6451 They had too much as it is
Superman's black suit apparently is suppose to be the "recovery suit", although not specified, he had his powers at full capacity after he was resurrected, so wearing the black suit was pointless.
The scene with Superman picking this suit and the voice overs with two father characters was absurdity. Pa Kent rejected the superman aspect of Clark and his bio father didn't even know him. So that was pure hero worship... gross 🤢
The fans that wanted it just for image and don't care how it fits into the movie
@@yurikendal4868 can you explain it in detail
@@ctl6985 Exactly.
Slow Mo works once in a while but when your dragging it out for 3 or more minutes? Kinda gets boring after a while.
Great rant :)
It's sad that Henry Cavil is an actual good actor as he's demonstrated in MI it's just how he's directed and written in these shitty movies.
This movie is awful man. I never understood the hype for Zack Snyder, his movies are so boring. I reviewed it today also. I think fans who wanted this movie were blinded by their love for Zack and cognitive disodence.
Zack literally created the hype by himself on vero
I'm not a fan of his work anyway. I'll admit, I used to love Man Of Steel, but it's more overrated the more I think of it, especially after seeing Batman V Superman.
Thank You 👏
But his movies are way better than The Marvel movies that have unecessary jokes.😢😭
I don't understand why everyone is putting this movie on a pedestal some people are saying it's even a masterpiece and I just don't get it a masterpiece are you kidding me I'm so sick and tired of everyone talking about this movie like it's the greatest thing ever to happen I can care less about this movie and I'll Will never want to see it hated the first cut and don't care for this
same
Low standards and this gen is the dumbest of all gens :/
The cartoons you mentioned (Superman, Justice League, Teen Titans) are great representations of the comic books. The disclaimer about not reading the comics I get but trust me when I say you have a better understanding of these characters than Zack Snyder (or maybe he gets them and just hates them.)
I don't know about Snyder hating the characters but he certainly improved them by changing them from altruistic to selfish heroes.
@@zhengyingli And being spiteful towards each other and In general
@@yurikendal4868 I don't see how that's the case considering the Justice League united pretty quickly in the Snyder Cut.
@@zhengyingli Well in the end yes... kinda
@@yurikendal4868 Not Bruce, Diana and Barry. They got along right from the start.
Fantastic rant :D So happy to hear your thoughts Matt, love your DCEU rants
Great job ranting on a film that to me personally is the DC cinematic universe equivalent of a monster truck. It's over compensating, over the top, over indulgent and totally ridiculous. And unlike a monster truck rally there's not much high octane excitement. I liked and was entertained by at most 20 minutes of the 4 hour running time. The majority of the time, the film is the monster truck on less than a half a tank of gas that is spinning its wheels stuck in the mud.
Yes yes! Thank-you Matt! You just won me 50 bucks! I told my friends that you would rant on this movie and nobody believe me! 🤗🤗🤗
That sounds like you stole that money from your friends. Anybody who watches him knows that Snyder’s dc movies aren’t his thing. It would have been shocking if he liked it.
@@Judgeholden95 I would have accused him being martian man hunter if that happened
I’ve already watched 1 hour of the Snyder Cut and I gotta say I’m not impressed with what I have seen so far.
"Not impressed"
The keyword here is "not."
It's uninteresting overall
That dawn of the dead remake was 🔥 very underrated imo
I agree. I always wanted a proper sequel which was canon to it.
I was bored to death. I only woke up when Batman started doing something. It does have some improvements here and there but still, it's a boring movie.
The only reason I don't pirate these is that my internet provider will ban my account if I'm caught. It's the ONLY reason!
I personally wasn't that excited to see the Snyder Cut. I think it was just way too overhyped.
Waaay overhyped.
When Matt brings out the 40 liter of 'DEW', you know it's gonna be long. You should call these long form vids '40 Liter Rants'.
thanks for sharing. I liked it, agree it isn't perfect & is full of fan-service as an apology for the first version (and yes, it is based on an inferior foundation than Reeve Superman or Bale Batman). I disagree with you on this and Shin Godzilla, and possibly one or two others. agree with a lot of what you say though and in any case, love to hear what you have to say.
This means nothing coming from me but I think that's the perfect take to have. You can like someone's review for a movie and not have it detract from how you feel about it
Your review was spot on about this tripe. Geez I jus finished watching the Snyder Cut on 4K. I was little unnerved when I noticed 2 discs. This sumbitch is 4hours!! And the first 2hrs. nothing,nothing, ,nothing happened. This flick is terrible. I'm tempted to contact Amazon and return it.
@53:30 - The Flash from the early-2000's cartoon series (which I grew up with as well) was Walley West whereas Ezra Miller's version of the character was of the Barry Allen incarnation. That's why they both acted differently. Then again, I can't say Ezra's was spot on whatsoever in terms of how Barry Allen was in the comics since I never cared enough about the Flash to read any real comic unless it was Justice League related. Anyways, that's my two cents about that whole situation with the Flash.
Did you sit through this in one sitting Matt
Yes I did...but it was annoying.
Two sittings because he watch it twice
@@ramboraph4life It took me 2 to 4. One of my favorite movies of the year
@@perrymehta6438 you didn't see any others movies did you? Or irony
I watched it in one setting, while I was making dinner..
This review is so funny, Matt. This is like therapy after so much BS online about how amazing this is.
this is my therapy too, movie was trash
@@ibadanboy9721 Ohh hell yes, it was.
To me, even the universally-hated Whedon-Cut was better than this "movie".
The crazy thing about people liking this version is that they ignore the other two movies he did and try and act like the Snyderverse was always great
Still shorter than the Snyder Cut.
31:35 the reason why it look shotty because the vfx artist was creating, adding and mixing in new CG mix with old CG from 5 years ago from 5 year old computer hardware, those scenes weren't new scenes that were filmed recently.
I know you're not big on Snyder's DC films but let's be honest: what Zach Snyder went through with losing his daughter and then getting screwed by Former Brahs was pretty shady and heartbreaking. And what kills me is that the newer films are gonna ignore this film. But I'm definitely ignoring Aquaman 2 and the new Zatanna film! Here's to Batfleck and to the next Batman because Pattinson's Bats is gonna slay!
What synder went through and the movie he made is not relevant
@@yurikendal4868 Kinda is because he stepped away in 2017 and didn't want to do the film because his daughter committed suicide but Warner Bros rushed the film for cash. Do your research.
@@wiinterflowers4277 The movie was scheduled to come out and there's money attached to it. At the end of the day he doesn't own these characters. Now if they took something original he did and pushed it through then that's a different story. They would've been better to get someone who was already working on the film so that they could've kept the same tone of the film and what Zack wanted to go with.
As far as Cyborg goes, he's half machine and half human so he should be able to emote lol.
he does emote
Last time slow mo was cool was in DREDD
Maybe he can direct your film!
That was good
Dredd was awesome.
Ive skipped this latest version of JUSTICE LEAGUE too, so im good. Great review, Matt!
My brother made me watch this with him and it was a complete waste of my time. Didn't like the first time, this cut didn't make a difference.
It wasn't about the movie, people online for 3 years have turned it into a political movement. I laughed when G+G stream got put in their place by Snyder, after all those years of fighting, serves them right.
@@millabasset1710
Do you think James Gunn is a way better director and writer than Snyder?
I used fast forward a lot in this movie. Cyborgs misfire in the res scene with superman was absurd
Also people who bash on and say that a rated R TMNT is a bad/stupid idea have obviously never picked up an IMAGE comic before and seen the original heavily graphic and violent TMNT. lol it's sad people don't do their research...
When Barry said "I know Gorilla sign language", I think that was a nod to Gorilla Grodd.
So this Flash, the same one who tripped over himself at one point while running during an early battle, who doesn't know how to really 'deal' in battle'....yet he somehow has fought Gorilla Grodd?
@@ramboraph4life No..Just a reference to Gorilla Grodd for maybe a future film..For example, in The Dark Knight when Lucius Fox explained to Bruce Wayne about his new armor for the batsuit "it should be fine against cats", that was a Catwoman nod.
@@MrLobo1024 But it's a very lame, unfunny and silly line to say just for a 'reference'.
Whakim phoneix was more of a symbol then the actual joker and a commentary. It was not a DC comic book movie
Thank you. I appreciate your opinion. And I agree completely.
Thank you for that.
I was glad you did this. I saw the movie myself. I thought it was extremely vapid and overly impressed with itself
The only thing that bothered me in BTAS was how they ruined Tim so badly they fucked him up from the comics. They used his original Robin design for Dick and then later used his black and red suit on Jason who they renamed "Tim" but it was Jason Todd had his whole backstory and everything. DC just hates Tim Drake :/
The hallelujah song was the closing credits and boy was it over the top
I’ve been waiting for this. 🤣 thx Matt.👍
I wanted Steppnfetchin wolf to win😈.
Considering that WB don't know how to use Brandon Routh to carry the torch for Chris Reeves? I am grateful they made a bearable movie that entertained me all the way with this. But I'm glad to hear an alternative review. 👍
That Superman and Lois isn't worth all the balloons and candy it's given ether.
@Dustin Neely It had a stupid storyline, was time for sups to face another intergalactic freak that could smash him up and make him work (again but with effects from 2006). Not have him with a kid creaping round Lois.
I think Routh was a good pick though.
@Dustin Neely that's a heck of an OPINION
I really enjoy Superman and Lois. Don't like the puffy costume but the guy makes me think of Superman. He feels like Superman.
Thank you for pointing out the Bvs ending you might be the first to have done so. Personally I didn’t hate it . There were some parts of it I actually rather enjoyed. The whole premise of the story arc is dependent superman and his resurrection , the problem I have is that I just don’t care about this particular iteration of the character they have given me no reason to care , he’s brooding , sullen and at times unlikable ( now who does that remind you of ? Cause I can think of someone and it’s not superman )
I can understand him being like that at first , but once he finds out who he is and his parents hope for him surely the perspective has to change ?
It seemed to have gotten worse
I honestly loved this cut it's great and it's an improvement over the theatrical cut this is now my favorite DCEU film of all time but I agree that there are better actions films out there like 80s and 90s
Don't be such a sheep.
Squirrel Power, if MiGamer likes the film then it's fine. I'm not going to tell the person what to do and no one should do that. We all have different tastes.
@@ramboraph4life I agree with you on this.
10:12 Ha, ha, ha, ha... That's a good one, Matt. I liked this film, they explained the story in more detail, but I agree it was waaaay too long with its 4-hour running time.
13:28 also a good observation.
Its funny you pretty much said everything I said in my review except far more diplomatic and PC than me who just went right in on Snyder and his garbage movie LOL. I agree with pretty much everything man.
One of the most overrated pieces of shit i've seen and one of my worst movies of the year! i don't get the hype, praise and all.
This movie like the first is a badly written, colorless, pretentious, self-indulgant piece of crap! nice performances on Batman and Cyborg but the pacing is poor and the writing is substandard. This movie sucks! James Gunn is a better writer and director than Snyder as he puts color and fun into his movies.
we need a deathstroke movie should be in production
Definitely! He was more intimidating than Lex Jr and I liked his Apocalypse design!
Didn't Zack Snyder say something like Batman could get assaulted in a bad way in prison in a Snyder Batman movie ? If so he's a sick little fucker , if he did say that I would not watch another Snyder movie ever.
Rio Bravo, Donnie Brasco, Joker - you have absolutely sound taste Matt, this is why I come here. Also it's funny when you take the piss out of crap movies and the dumb stuff in them, like the chanting/shirt smelling here, lol
I see u have preacher comics in the back. U should review them if u want actually. They're amazing af
Actually, Preacher is one of my favorite comic book story-lines. I have all of them except 2 of the last issues.
@@ramboraph4life yeah the writer garth ennis also wrote the punisher max run from 2004-2007. Which the best adaptation of the punisher in any medium in my opinion. Very dark.
Justice League 2 they should get a different director
I don't think a sequel is happening according to WB.
Dude you're entitled to your opinions & I do agree with you that some of these comic movies just didn't sit well with me either they've could've been better. You bring up some very good points the JL was a tad better but there's still problems with it. The animated shows& movies are far more better with greater details & the characters are in their element. WHY CAN'T THEY GET IT RIGHT WHEN IT COMES TO LIVE ACTION? Flash didn't act like Flash, Cyborg was too scowling, Lois wasn't given anything to do, they killed Superman off way too soon. They could've waited at least 4 movies in then killed him that would've been more impactful, Jessy Eisenberg wrongly cast as Lex Luther. And yes Bruce going around letting everyone knows who he is in the comics & animated Bruce was animate about keeping his identity secret. When I saw him throw his batarang at Barry I was like WTF? You just told him who you are the same could be said for Diana a person easily tell she's WW. Why not wear glasses like Lynda Carter did on the 70s WW TV show people could not tell her apart from WW. Yes, the slow motion way too much of that, Superman in the black outfit should've been saved for the last scene in the future with the scene of Batman, Mera, a bearded Flash, Cyborg & Joker. When Superman lands in front of them that's when he should be wearing the black suit because Lois was dead & he became a tyrant.
I remember enjoying the animated show.
53:40 lol
I disagree big time but that's fine, I freaking loved this movie, better in every way then Whedon's Cut, Snyder once again shows how awesome he is as a director in my opinion, loved pretty much every second of this thing I'm serious, the cast did great, nice cinematography, awesome soundtrack by Junkie XL, I'm happy that DC did their own kinda build up compared to what the MCU did, do your own thing don't copy others, I still love MOS, BVS and now this movie, that's just my opinion though
EDIT: I also disagree with the comparison with Michael Bay and Zack Snyder just like how I disagree with the comparison of the former and Roland Emmerich, they are completely different filmmakers at least in my POV
About your comment at 34 minutes, I imagine Dr. Fauci would reply with: "More arrows is just common sense."
6:41-7:03 Agreed bro!
I'm so glad I didn't see this film. The 2001 animated series will always, and forever will be, better than the 2017 live action film (both the theatrical cut and the Snyder cut). Forget the DCEU, DCAU is where it's at.
Perhaps watch and make up your own mind instead of listening to other people's opinions
@@AndrewHealey why not both?
I didn’t give a damn about the theatrical and I didn’t care much for Snyder’s other stuff aside from the Dawn of the Dead remake. I have no interest in seeing this film again.
They made a big to do about hauling the coffin around. They just needed the body. And there was an obscene focus on the pah Kent photo...why? I mean EVERYTHING in the flash running in the scout ship the ship AI kept going "THis is an ireversable action." over and over again. Everything is a character...even an incendental ship AI. Artifically building tension.
slow motion is a lot like the horror movie jump scares you abuse it it becomes ineffective more gimmicky and an act of desperation to hold the audience's attention because you can't be creative or think of something else to do.
Damn Matt lol I feel sorry for you that must of been painful to sit through I hate all of Zack's movies style over substance it's always been that way. I'd much rather see the 170 min cut of Joel Schumacher's Batman Forever. I'll gladly sit through that over this any day.
#releasetheschumachercut
If you liked the "feels" and "ehpic"!! Then this is for you. If you like good story telling... then this is a skip
The movie 300 is a prime example of synders corrupt world view
Can you explain it.
The res scene with superman is ridiculous...can batman not speak...can wonderman talk a bit more coherently...??
Synder is vile. He can't act decent In public or speak decently in public. His movies are absurd. Oh the yodelling with wonder woman was silly. And superman's scream was not how sound works...and there was no reason the motherboxes had to wait for superman to die...
Also his connection to Louis was overdone.
Also his scream would have shattered matter at that volume and no one seemed to care
To me it's not even really much better than the theatrical cut, just longer.
9:00-9:06 Good one LAMO!!!!
10:10-10:28 Yep that pretty munch sums up Snyder up to a ''T'' bro LOL
21:26 You made another funny bro LAMO!!!!!!!!!!
48:43-48:59 You making him sound like Edger Frog from ''The Lost Boys'' ROFL!!
53:25 Same here bro he's the one&only IMHO. The other Flash is the one from the 90's ''Justice League'' cartoons who's voiced by Michael Rosenbaum I believe? But the one he plays on that series isn't Berry Allen it's Walley West so that one was always a bit funny which I never minded thanks to the actor who voiced him and the script IMHO.
Absolutely fantastic epic rant/review of the four hour Justice League, Matt. I highly respect your opinion as well, personally in my opinion. I only really like the 2017 Joss Whedon version, because at least it was better paced. had a personality & a sense of fun. so I think I will stick with that version on blu ray. thank you for this review Matt. this was up there with Thorias Unlimited's review & Jessi's review from Mindless Entertainment, of the film.
always animated movies from dc are the best! its crazy how dcu keeps on messing shit up. Zack snyder is ridiculous. half the time its so dark u cant see wtf is going on. also i agree f*ck this verison of flash. ezra is horrible and basically everyone else sucks. cavill is the only one that tries though. i want nolan to take over and direct cavill as superman. gal is horrendous as wonder woman. ww84 is so disgusting. also im so beyond done with the slow motion freeze frame crap! he does it like every 5 mins! ugh. sorry hate him man lol
The seaseme seed in the truck...slo mo and ehpic!!!
1:22:00 True wasn't there at one point they wanted to do a ''Flashpoint'' film??
1:24:11 Do you think maybe you could save this film with one of your ''edits'' bro?
1:25:09 Agree Matt he's a fail to me.
1:32:50 No it's not Matt that just shows how munch of a big heart you have for other people's feelings IMHO.
A very epic job on the long very funny ass rant brother!!
The film was filmed in IMAX dimensions and none others cause IMAX is "ehpic"
They should've never used zack synder long ago why him he not making good super hero movies
Superman let bat man win. Superman couldn't possibly be that ridiculous
I wish Rambo was in this film! I bet after watching this, you might be elated for Rambo 5😃
Yeah...I can say I'd rather watch Rambo 5 than this. I'll give you that.
I didn't like it. Yeah the plot is better because now you know the bad guys motivation, but the films so boring and all the slow motion got on my nerves. I don't understand why I'm seeing so many people say that The Flash is different and this version is their favourite character in the film, he's still super annoying and cringy every time he speaks. I still don't think there's much character development either.
@samsong samsong I was talking about Steppenwolf
The Flash is no different than in the theatrical version still the worst character in the movie.
@@thedude9941 I totally agree. I'm absolutely dreading The Flash film, I only want to see if it Michael Keaton really does return as the older Bruce Wayne.
@samsong samsong from whatever he did to piss Darkseid off
I think they're just jizzing over the speed force time travel scene and got tricked into thinking he has more character development
6:31 you are 100% correct.
I like this version of the 2021 Justice League, the 2017 was disappointing, Steppenwolf was more imposing and badass this time around, the heroes are taken serious and the film 🎞 had more depth and there was more anticipation between every mother box 📦 , a long 4 hours but I still enjoyed it, Superman’s black suit is cool.
Wise words at the end Matt. Couldn't agree more. Plenty of movies I loved that you didn't like yet I still enjoy your rants on them being your one of the best comedians. :D
That said though, great rant on this. Looked forward to this and it definitely delivered. Most likely better then the entire movie itself.
Him and Ocpcommunications are REAL people with actual passions for movies and can see through the errors in hollywood now
Stanley cubric would mock this movie
To be fair I haven't seen that owl movie I'll have to check it out to see for myself. Just haven't been impressed by his movies as a whole. You should check out the Superman they got on Supergirl even though that show kinda sucks they at least got Superman and Clark Kent right. I also prefer Smallville over all as a Superman live action story that and The Adventures of Superman Lois & Clark I believe it was called.
I hated this film, it's awful, it's forgettable, and it's boring, three words I'll stick with, when hating this film!
I see zombie sheep everywhere...
I'm being led to believe that this film is bigger than Avatar (remember that?). I'm told that this film will be like The Simpsons Movie (remember that?) - a film to end all films. Remember how the world loved Titanic? Remember the people who defended Disney's Star Wars?
Are you suggesting people don’t like Avatar, or Titanic anymore? Uhm, yeah. They’re still two of the biggest movies of all time (with some of the greatest accolades). Titanic especially was a true phenomenon and people still adore the hell out of it (it’s on tv ALL the time). A classic is a classic is a classic.
Lot of people nowadays dislike those 2 films, Jason Neil. Myself included.
Titanic is a garbage ass movie, i dont know how anyone can like that piece of garbage.
The "evil" super man in this universe...who could tell the difference between now and then.. Leto was hideous as the joker..it was just a vision. So it didn't truly matter
i agree
Im supposed to care about these amazonian s...the feels... THE feels!!! The ehpic yodeling!!!
Glad you enjoyed Superman vs The Elite......as for this movie can't say that I'm in any hurry to watch it
That was a BIHG solid for your bro. A SECOND time through this trash fire
I like the movie I prefer this version but this movie looks grey no color. Movie is too long. The Avengers first movie was better and shorter
The visuals are amazing, it’s realistic lighting
I enjoyed this verion of Justice League way more than the 2017 version, but I knew it wouldn't be your cup of tea Matt which is why I'm perfecrtly fine with you RANTING on it. You know I love your RANTS anyways.
RamboRaph rules
Thank you.
Lol 15:07 or had some bad IHOP. 21:10 what?! 50:37 lol. This sounds like an more over-bloated version of Justice League, yea may have a little more coherency to bridge certain elements but even then I don't care for Zack Snyder's direction, his style is not my cup of tea. Plus a good chunk of the cast I don't care for either you get the annoying Ezra Miller, the monotone Cyborg and more. I agree this didn't need to be 4 hours. Great job with rant!
It's a shame you didn't like it. Then again, considering your stance on Snyder and his handling if the DCEU, your reaction is not at all surprising
How else were they supposed to make thanos look comic accurate without cgi 😂
instagram.com/p/BpTGcuYAjCs/?taken-by=ironhead_studio
Thank god for you buddy. The Internet has driven me crazy with the praise for this film.
I didn't like it. The guy made the film twice as long and we got some more backstory that didn't serve the story of the actual film, nor build tension/drama. At best it was mildly improved due to the extra 2 hours. If the bar is so low that a director given yet another chance, another 70 mill and a further 2 hours is a little more bio info... Just not enough.
Also, Joker said he give batman a reach around while looking like a 5 year old after eating spaghetti bolognase.
Agree! Joker was better made than this and it had color! even Shazam was better and it was fun and had color.
I like Batman's action scene in the Batmobile battling the parademons and I think thats the only good action scene of the whole movie.
The Fistful if Dollars trilogy, Ten Commandments and Skyfall were over 3 hours long, but we're still entertaining and I enjoyed them. The Snyder cut was boring.
I enjoy all 3 Fistful of Dollars movies. Skyfall is a good one, too.
All those movies are awesome.
Will never watch the film and have never seen a single superhero film, but I'll watch the hell out of this video.
Wheres the popcorn?
Not even Howard the duck? It’s the greatest super hero movie of all time
Dasad and darkseid were point less
Oh yeah tbh with you man I really want to watch army of the dead (2021) than this shit that's a zack snyder film but because I'm a sucker for zombie stuff and I really want to watch that than this ! For real dude ✌❤😁🤘🧟♂️🤘
The Superman vs Zod fight was like a bunch of September 11ths. Judging by all the destruction at least 100,000 people died. Superman the HERO would have drawn Zod out of metropolis. Batman is not a psycho killer into branding people. Zack Snyder hates these characters. WB made a disasterous decision having him kick off the DC universe.
Only one building collapsed, which was caused by Zod, during the fight with Zod in Metropolis, so you're definitely exaggerating the death toll. Plus, Superman did try to move Zod away from Metropolis but Zod kept breaking out of his grip and returning to fight among the skyscrapers.
Go read war of the Supermen there is destruction there or go watch Superman vs Darksied where Superman punches him into 5 buildings. Stop with that Superman bullshit narrative
😑 I figured it was shit the moment I saw the damn trailer fuck this movie to the pits of hell ! good rant ramboraph4life ! Take care ! ✌❤😁🤘💀🤘
I enjoyed the movie and would give it an 8.5/10, but one of my major issues is the 4-hour runtime. It DID NOT have to be 4-hours. And I agree that they should've done solo movies first instead of trying to catch up to Disney's MCU. Giving everyone solo movies would've easily chopped off 60 to 90 minutes of the movie. All the backstory on Flash, Cyborg, and Aquaman would've been dealt with and we could just jump right in with their characters in a Justice League movie. Having to do a backstory on them just made the plot take a detour for a while. I got so caught up in Cyborg and Flash's stuff that I needed a moment or two to remind myself about the main plot. And a solo Batman movie or two would've helped out. Ben Affleck is fine, but I don't feel attached to him or Alfred. With the way they rushed things, I feel forced on liking Ben Affleck's Batman.
I also agree that most of the epilogue didn't need to happen. When we see Clark go down the alley and rip open his shirt to reveal his costume underneath and it cuts to black, THAT should've been when the end credits kicked in. The Lex Luthor and Deathstroke stuff should've been a scene halfway through the end credits, and then the Bruce and Martian Manhunter scene should've been a scene after the end credits. Then have the nightmare/dream stuff be the next movie's opening scene. Heck, even the Bruce Wayne and Martian Manhunter scene could be part of that opening scene too. When Martian Manhunter flies off and Bruce says "I guess I'll see you around," that's the cue for the opening credits. But when Cyborg's dad's closing speech/monologue ends and we see Clark rip open his shirt while going down the alley, THAT's when the movie should've ended. Everything after that should be optional, meaning that it should be during or after the end credits. I actually didn't mind the slow-mo stuff. It's whatever. I just shrugged at it. There was some minor things too that could've been left out. The women singing was not needed, or that whole Aquaman scene where he saves the guy and walks out of the bar and we see him in slow-mo for like 2 minutes.
Another thing I agree with is the black suit Superman wore. I'm aware it's supposed to help Superman heal, but it was never explained. They could've gave a quick explanation. Like a line of dialogue from the ship. To me, the black suit comes off as a personal fashion choice Superman made, or a personal fashion choice Zack Snyder made (for "to be cool" reasons). And even at the end when he takes off his clothes and reveals the costume underneath, it should've been the regular Superman costume and not the black suit. I even questioned that and scratched my head. That's when I really knew it had to be some personal fashion choice whether it was Clark's choice or Zack Snyder's choice. Actually, when Superman is revived, he looked pretty healed to me. The wound he died from was fully healed and his powers looked like they were at max power since he took on all the other members of the Justice League. So that further makes me believe the black suit was just a fashion choice.
So with all my complaints, I have to give the movie at least an 8.5/10. Maybe a 9/10 if I'm in a nice mood. I still had a lot of fun watching it, and it's a much better movie than the Joss Whedon cut, but it's not perfect. Still has flaws.
Sorry you disliked this cut Matt and you guys but Zack snyders JL 96 % audience score on Rotten tomatoes and 8.4 on IMDB says otherwise ... Was a Fantastic movie. Wayy better than all Marvels movies filled every 2 min with Disney corny jokes for little 8 years old.. Thor reduced to Comic relief, Hulk taking selfies an i could go on and on... 4 hrs went by easy. Compared to 3 hrs of boring shit time travel full of SJW agenda of Disney Avengers endgame...
@brobbus0 Then again. Still 96 % on Rotten tomatoes. Have a nice day.
@brobbus0 Meh.. agree to disagree i guess..
@ Nick Veilleux Star Wars: The Last Jedi had high IMDB/Rotten Tomatoes scores...but I certainly did not enjoy that one. Same with The Dark Knight Rises and Prometheus, which both also had high IMDB and rotten tomato scores. When John Carpenter's The Thing came out, critics and audiences at the time hated it...now it's a classic and deservedly so. I don't care what they think...I care what I/myself think. I don't need a site to verify what I personally like and dislike. I'm not sure why you bring up Avengers Endgame/infinity war because I disliked those 2 movies as well.
