Silly, self-serious, and stupid. Interminably long. Endless slow-motion shots, heavy handed, often with awful music. A film lacking in any compelling characters, all universally unlikable. This could only appeal to forgiving children with endless patience or those with a willingness to view it over multiple sittings.
As said, while not knowing the driving force behind Steppenwolf's actions, he was far more compelling than the dregs that are the Justice League. I wished death upon all of these 'heroes' many times over throughout the course of the 'film'.
Ben Affleck cosplaying Batman is a cringeworthy low point but they are all universally terrible; upon meeting Barry and Victor my allegiance to Steppenwolf was sealed; the endless slow-motion/exposition heavy/score-filled posing/montages were uniquely awful and only reaffirmed this conviction.
The bright spots were well hidden amongst the muck, so much muck. This is not storytelling. This should be viewed as the abomination it is, epitomising the worst of Hollywood's excesses and the vapid shallowness that is modern life. The rarest of occasions where the 1 stars are fully understandable and likely warranted (its redeeming features being far too few).
Let this be the final nail in this iteration of said universe and/or join me in imagining a better world where Steppenwolf won the day..
