Thought?:

Justice League is a movie that has the popular superheroes, however in this Justice League movie does not show all of the members of the Justice League which this movie is supposed to be all about. Justice League is a membership group, such as members as the Batman, Superman, Barry Allen (the Flash), Aquaman, Hal Jordan (Green Lantern), Martian Hunter, Black Canary, Green Arrow, Ray Palmer (Atom), Hawkman, Hawkgirl, Cyborg, Mera (Aquaman’s lover) and few more so if you are a fan of DC comics then you get the idea. Only the ones that were in the Justice League movie was Batman (starring Ben Affleck, as the last time as a Batman), Superman, the Flash, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg against Steppenwolf and then you will get to see VERY little of Mera which is Aquaman’s lover, as well Deathstroke and Lux Luthor. If you have already watched Justice League but didn’t see Deathstroke or Lex Luthor, it is probably because you didn’t wait until the very end because at the very end you would see Deathstroke and Lex Luthor having a meeting. So, the Justice League really only involve the most popular characters but they left one (or a couple) out and that is Hal Jordan (Green Lantern) – you’ll see Green Lantern at the beginning of the movie but very barely as it seems that they quickly just threw few seconds of the Green Lantern existence in the Justice League movie.

So, the Justice League only involves the most popular characters from Justice League members in DC Comics and Hal Jordan (Green Lantern) should have been involved as well because he is among the popular DC comics superheroes but for some reason he is left out. You won’t get to see a lot of Mera as well, as there were only a few minutes of Mera in Justice League movie because I think that they know it wouldn’t look right with Aquaman being very involved and not having a few minutes of Mera in.

I would give Justice League movie 3.9-4.1 rating but because of the fact that they didn’t bring in Hal Jordan (Green Lantern) or others which it made no sense as I said he is one among of the popular superheroes so that brings my rating to 3.5 as the total rating for the Justice League movie. It does in a way have an impact on Justice League just because Hal Jordan (Green Lantern) wasn’t involved and they as well should have given the rest of other members a few seconds too if they were only giving Mera a few minutes. You could almost see that there isn’t really much effort into the production storyline, it feels almost as if the storyline or script that they wrote for the movie was “good enough” rather than really put a lot of thinkings into it which they could make Justice League a great movie.

In this Justice League movie is action-packed as expected, with comedy in especially coming from the Flash character and as well some from other members but the most comedy part were from the Flash. I look at Justice League movie as good but with a couple of downsides and Justice League movie is a definitely movie that I would watch for the second time at a later time (not too soon). If you are a fan of Superman, you definitely will like the movie even though the Superman wasn’t heavily involved as the rest of the members but if I tell you why I said that you would definitely like the movie if you are a fan of Superman and that he wasn’t heavily involved I would be ruining the spoiler here for you so I suggest that you free up a couple of hours to watch the Justice League which is a movie I would recommend!

The Justice League movie is pretty much a continued storyline from the Batman v. Superman, mixed with a new storyline that includes other members of the Justice League so if you have watched Batman V. Superman and wished that it could go on a bit longer then this is the movie that you watch because it sort of carried on from Batman v. Superman. For me, it somewhat worth my money to purchase the Justice League and so it should worth your money as well to purchase the movie to watch or rent! Again, I recommend the movie for anyone who is a fan of the Justice League but beware that not a lot of members from the Justice League including Green Lantern is involved in the movie and that the storyline was carried over from Batman V. Superman but added a new (good enough) storyline in the mix.
