Yesterday I watched Man of Steel, Batman VS Superman, Justice League and Zack Snyder's Justice League.
Zack Snyder's Justice League is hands down THE BEST superhero movie I have ever seen! I collect superhero movies. The 4 hr 2 minute play time is broken up by parts. At each part, I paused it and did what I needed to do, giving me time to absorb what I saw.
After seeing this film it makes me wonder how much better many big budget movies could have been. The theatrical version is an example of how studios and some producers create a work which is designed to appeal to the widest possible audience in an effort to appeal to basic societal expectation. Focusing more on the marketing pay-off than telling an engaging story.
This film was a creation of art and mood. Geared more towards a select few. Its not a film which tries to make you feel good and more about the view and mood of the essence of the ideas being presented. Its very effective at its job of suspending disbelief.
The redesigned look and feel is amazing with its attention to detail. Important details absent in the original release in 2017. Snyder's vision shows us a good movie can be made when the studios actually allow the art to override the money potential.
Granted, much of the effects were CGI but the CGI was well done and added to the quality of the film. I read there were still parts of Zack Snyder's cut which did not make the screen. I also read there is a black & white version which shows a different ending and lil segments left out of this version. I'd love to see that too.
Last night, after it finished, I decided to make this version a permanent film in my DC Justice League Universe collection. It blows away Marvel's Cinematic Universe.
Will Zack Snyder make Justice League 2? Will he remake Man of Steel or Dawn of Justice? Will he make The Flash? I feel like I've been cheated by all the previous superhero films. It exemplifies the feeling of "Here is what is possible and 'this' is what 'we decided' to give you".
Zack Snyder RAISED the bar. Not an inch, a mile! GOOD JOB!
