In ZACK SNYDER'S JUSTICE LEAGUE, determined to ensure Superman's (Henry Cavill) ultimate sacrifice was not in vain, Bruce Wayne (Ben Affleck) aligns forces with Diana Prince (Gal Gadot) with plans to recruit a team of metahumans to protect the world from an approaching threat of catastrophic proportions. The task proves more difficult than Bruce imagined, as each of the recruits must face the demons of their own pasts to transcend that which has held them back, allowing them to come together, finally forming an unprecedented league of heroes. Now united, Batman (Affleck), Wonder Woman (Gadot), Aquaman (Jason Momoa), Cyborg (Ray Fisher) and The Flash (Ezra Miller) may be too late to save the planet from Steppenwolf, DeSaad and Darkseid and their dreadful intentions.

This four-hour endurance test of a movie is a jumble of CGI battles and endless overuse slow motion. Go to Full Review

Keith Uhlich (All (Parentheses)) (Substack) 03/26/2021
Let's not forget that the Snyder Cut was in part willed into being by a toxic social media campaign, mob rule begetting a mystical monocultural object that is finally much bigger than its ostensible creator. Go to Full Review

But with his unfair advantage of time, Snyder's version is easily the definitive one, and it's actually an enjoyable and well-rounded four hours, even with its slow patches. Go to Full Review

The Syndercut is essentially an extended version of JL with new footage that tied up loose ends, cut out all the cheesy and sexiest JOSStice scenes, improved the horrific CGI, and primarily made all of our beloved heroes much more captivating and GODLIKE! Go to Full Review

E.D. J @Salty_Sass 2h Way too long and trying to do both setup and payoff of multiple movies in a single movie See more Justin L @leejustin268 18h The best out of the old dcu. If too long watch the no insults really. Convoluted short Bryan version. Or watch in four days as a mini series. Poetically beautiful and yet for four hours still missing. Compared to poetically beautiful and missing a lot. Hardly any set up. Not enough single stand movies and set up foreshadowing movies. Even if Easter eggs scenes. And not talking about last minute end of credit scene just to keep the audience in the theater. To watch it. At least five movies a piece before the justice league.ovie truly wanted to see his darkseid movies. Before gunn took over completely. Truly my heart goes for the bad things that happened in the directors life. And everything rushed for the movie. As for higher beings her.and not her. She just doesn't unleashed. Him. Please no more bad Ares. Truly is never rotten tomatoes. As Ares shows a mortal man do all this. And they parade around as him. In the upper realms. See more The S. @BrandonS2025 1d This movie is straight up perfection! The story, the action, and the characters are all amazing! See more Walson K @RT00575163 1d This was perfect, perfect to the last bottom of it,it was perfect See more Ronald T @RT47974441 2d The only Snyder DC movie that is close to being a good movie. Certainly not a good movie but its okay enough for me to remember a little fondly over it compare to the previous two entry. Lots of cool sequences and shots and visuals but still couldn't get me to care enough for the snyderverse and Cavill as dark and serious superman is boring me. Affleck and Gadot felt like they didn't want to be there. See more Deogracious N @deogracious 2d Some of the things that were to love/hate about the OG Justice League are still in this 4 hour cut so it cancels out. The positives are that the movie is more fleshed out but it also feels bloated with a lot of more unnecessary scenes. The film could also do a lot less with the slow motion scenes that are unneeded. The redesigns are the best part of the whole film and Zack's catalogue. Specifically Steppenwolf's redesign and Supes in the black suit. But again no director or studio needs a 4 hour extended cut so that a 2 hour story and vision can come to life. The Justice League movie could have been trimmed down to less than 3 hours and it would be the best DCEU movie yet but this joke of a director is always focused on optics rather than good story telling. After the first hour or so the movie almost becomes uninteresting. The story is still the same for the most part and the optics are slightly better but ALL of the positives get erased by Jared Leto's eyesore of a performance. See more Read all reviews
