Had a great trailer too iirc. Had me all kinds of pumped.

The villains worked, were credible and there was a bit of justification in their actions, and they felt like a real threat.



It was in my mind a really strong cast, and the dialogue and writing was decent as well.



I never got that sense in the other movies. I mean lets be honest, Eisenberg was a horrible Lex Luthor, like the worst. the premise in Justice League was just awful and the Villain was just a CGI monster of the week there was zero depth to it.


I've always said that for me, for a movie to be really good, I have to be able to not only look at the hero and see him as the hero, but look at the villain and say, I get it, I understand why you're doing what your doing, its extreme, but understandable. Its been the failing point in the DC world of movies is that for the most part the villains have been one dimensional and pretty much I'm going to destroy the world for stuff.



In Marvel, the villains have been really properly fleshed out. Red Skull, Thanos The villain in the first Iron Man movie, even Guardians of the Galaxy 1, the villains made sense. Where the Marvel movies failed in the sequels to Iron Man, and Guardians and some of the others were the villains were cookie cutter and didn't make much sense.
