This wasn’t nearly as bad as everyone said it was…

I watched it tonight on Amazon Prime, and it wasn’t that bad at all.

Granted, I’m fatigued on the superhero genre, and I’m sick of the “multiverse” garbage where you can change history, etc., but it was great to see Michael Keaton as Batman again, and the film had some genuinely funny and touching moments.

I really enjoy when I sit down to watch a movie the general public seems to hate, and I end up not minding the movie.

Agreed!

Interesting. I read the director really had his hands tied behind his back in making this. He could not make the movie he wanted to make. That's why I haven't watched it and won't watch it in future, even if Michael Keaton is Batman in this.

It definitely wasn’t Citizen Kane, not that I was expecting it to be, but I was expecting to watch something really atrocious according to public perception, and I ended up being entertained, and like I said, it had a few really funny and really touching moments. The cameos, and I guess you could say “tributes”, were pretty solid as well.

Thanks for your thoughts.

expected a better DCU Under James Gunn & Peter Safran

"wasn’t nearly as bad as everyone said it was" sounds like "not too good" to me.

It was better than most recent Marvel movies that's for sure.

I'm 20 minutes in. If what you're saying is accurate, then those movies must really be incredibly awful.

I DISAGREE...ALTHOUGH I DID ENJOY THE FLASH.

Can you please stop typing in all caps like that you retarded ass special needs kid?

[–] Kowalski (76773) 9 months ago

NO...I CAN'T...NOTHING PERSONAL...ALTHOUGH THE SECOND HALF OF YOUR COMMENT WAS AWFUL RUDE AND HURTFUL.

Oh I'm sorry I thought you were doing it on purpose. Is your keyboard broken or something? Or are you typing from phone?

Unless OCD can make you use all caps he does it on purpose. He did use dual case when creating his user name!

its abit like Force Awakens. it gets good when Keaton/Ford turns up about 40minutes in. then is fun for the hour or so hes about until he gets offed

It's a very enjoyable movie. Miller is great in both roles. Keaton absolutely rocks. Calle does very well with what she's given. No way did it deserve the box office it got. Thankfully it's been selling consistently well on DVD and Blu-ray. 7.5/10

It was okay. It had its moments but the story was a mess. Not as bad as The Marvels though.
