Just spotted this. Looks like this is a crowd pleaser, overall. Couldn't see it this week, going next.

Did the post credit scene surprise you?

Both did, and both entertained.

And that's perfectly fine. But on Jesse Eisenberg? Really?

Give me a movie with his stellar performance, maybe I'm missing some big gem.

What Zack said, really.

Doesn't matter how good of an actor Jesse Eisenberg is.

The issue is his look, his voice, his demeanor, his mannerisms, etc etc not his acting ability.

That's like casting Peter Dinklage as Marvel's Hercules. Doesn't matter how good Peter Dinklage is at acting but that casting won't work.

Yeah, because no Lex Luthor has ever been a jittery mad scientist. 😬

I think Aquaman will have some good business. There is already strong buzz for that.

Momoa needs to improve. And Amber Heard isn't exactly top drawer either.

Anyway, just watched it and loved it.

Can't say I loved it, but it was a still a solid film, and that was what they needed to have. Glad you enjoyed it.

I just hope they don't cut the shit out of future movies. Two hours is way too short.

Yeah it is a good film. Much better than BvS.

Definitely.

Just saw it. It was ok. Had it's share of problems but better than BvS, SS, about the same as MOS for me, and below WW.

WB certainly are no Ferengi..

as of slightly over 11 pm pacific standard time $93.5 million opening domestic

So only 1 outright negative review here so far. But a few “mediocre” ones, so I’m guessing it’s entertaining.

It's one of those movies that relies a fair bit on how you feel about the characters, so if you like the trinity at all, you'll like at least some part of it, imo.

Highly doubtful. The DCEU is still WB's #1 franchise. After it is all said and done, DCEU will enter the 4 billion range after its first 5 films.

Dude just stop showing off. Justice League is opening lower than any DCEU film to date. It’s supposed to be the reverse. The whole “Shared Universe” thing is a failure for them.

I was telling you from Day 1 “no one is demanding this film right now” which you laughed off.

I’m glad audiences seem to be enjoying this but due to very poor decisions (I.e. overusing Snyder, not building the Universe up properly, too much studio interference with every film, not having passion or vision, accepting poor quality work and trying so hard to differentiate from Marvel), it’s too little too late.

Golgo never knows how to admit his defeat.

It's funny that you change up your stance when it suits you. I recall you touting Box Office was the most important thing. Keep flopping

Man of Steel - 6.5/10
Batman Vs Superman - 5.5/10
Suicide Squad - 3.5/10

I liked the movie. Found it fun. Most of the humor was on point. My complains are things that are inherent flaws with how WB approached the DC universe. Insane fast pace rushing to introduce all the key players and an over abundance of CGI.

Can Lois Lane and Martha Kent just die? They are beginning to feel like Thor's ex girlfriend and co.

Movie felt like a big screen dc animated movie.

You can tell WB forced Whedon to keep it at 2 hours. A lot of stuff seemed cut out.

Can definitely feel Whedon's influence. Character interactions were solid. It did feel a little too short considering the scope of the movie.

The Superman love was welcomed. Still want Lois and Martha to die like Johnatan xD

WW: 7/10
JL: 6/10
MOS: 5/10
BvS: 4/10
SS: 3/10

Something like that
