Warner Bros. lifted the Justice League embargo at 9 a.m, on Friday, November 10, and some journalists who were treated to early screenings shared their thoughts.

“JUSTICE LEAGUE! It’s okay. Narratively it’s a mess, the stakes don’t work & the villain isn’t great. HOWEVER, the heroes ARE great, it’s funny, & there’s some surprisingly effective character work. I didn’t love it, but there are enough good pieces to excite me for the future.”

is a fun, bumpy ride that succeeds in character, but fails in narrative. It’s a mixed bag of execution that’s saved by the actors, who rise above the shortcomings to deliver an engaging, funny and hopeful, yet flawed, entry to the DCEU.”

“SO I saw -twice. Still under embargo, but: This is a fun superhero flick. Funny but still hero adventure. Reminds me of JL Unlimited ep. Likable interaction amongst recognizable heroes. There is a villain problem (no worse than Marvel’s)”

was entertaining for a good portion of the time though thin on storytelling and character development. There’s more fun, humor and heart than BvS but it also feels very rushed with some scenes given zero time to develop.”

“Justice League is better than expected, but not a home run. The interaction between the team is a lot of fun. The film sends the DCEU in a hopeful direction in line with where the brand should be headed. Flash and Aquaman steal the show. Cyborg and villain are the weak links.”

Justice League comes to theaters on November 17. Are you looking forward to the film? Sound off in the comments below.
