Had a chance (and will seek many more over the next few days, home for the holidays, and always looking for a means to escape the 12 people in this house) to see JL for only a second time on Thursday night with my brother in law and nephew, and I'm upping my original rating from a 7 to 8.5, slightly influenced by the world's newest and biggest Flash fan, one whom has got me wishing I could find a Ezra Miller Flash figure by tomorrow night. Unfortunately for him, I'm now two glasses of wine into the afternoon, and not about to star hitting up Targets.
General gripes remain, I think the history lesson or a little more narrative about Steppenwolf/New Gods to open the film would have done wonders for the overall story, but I'll be gosh darned if watching this a second time without any expectations didn't leave me with a smile on my face and wanting to see it again. And with that, I'm rolling out my DC film ratings: 1: JL, 2: BvS, 3: MoS, 4: WW, 5: SS.
It is more enjoyable the second time round. (Even though it still feels slight.) I enjoyed Ezra's Flash more this time. Also when Ben was taking the mickey out of Aquamomoa, who was giving Cyborg a hard time. While Ezra just wanted to eat.
I could appreciate some of the visuals more, such as the history lesson, or the parademons swarming the reactor.
