A list of every DC Films movie ranked from worst to best:
The one “for grown ups.” Removed from years of controversy and its place in the culture war, Zack Snyder’s four-hourshows that Whedon didn’t so much make a new movie but make a heavily-abridged version of Snyder’s initial designs. It’s certainly a visual improvement, even if it too lacks Larry Fong’s eye-popping template.
The first hour is an exercise in operatic chutzpah, and I admire it for its trespasses. The third act, during which Ray Fisher’s Cyborg finally takes center stage and our Super Friends save the world in a truly epic final showdown, gave me the ending I wanted in 2017. There are things I like better in the “studio cut” , and much of the “new” footage would never have made it to theaters even had Snyder gotten final cut. There’s a perfectly good 2.
Nonetheless, Viola Davis’s deadpan comic turn as Amanda Waller earns hearty laughs, as does Margot Robbie’s “just here to play” Harley reprisal and Elba’s weary and cynical old-school movie star turn.
If only that pesky Batman didn’t keep getting in the way. The “ultimate edition” restores much of the Clark Kent/Lois Lane footage, but the movie trips over itself trying to both be a topically relevant Superman movie and an action film that justifies Batman and Superman beating the snot out of each other.
