I give it a D. It's better than than about 60% of marvel, and better than 80% of DC movies. I think Shazam (It's brother film) is the only one I like more.

This movie is full of explosions and epic action down to crisp looking slow motion fights. It had a lot of dark moments but also a lot of laughs, which like Marvel can be it's downfall. There are about 3 characters we could completely delete and the movie would be improved.

We don't need these laughs at these inappropriate times. Still managed it better than other movies though.

I absolutely loved the main characters though. Rock was great, Hawkman was amazing to watch fight, and the legend Peirce Brosnan's Dr. Fate was cool too. (He's very much the cheap knock of off Dr. Strange, Atom Smasher is Ant Man yada yada).

One of the weaknesses is we're supposed to fill this strong relationship brotherhood through Dr Fate and Hawkman but we just don't know enough about the two's history for it to have an emotional impact on us.

I thought it was very enjoyable, though a little odd pacing. Still worth the big screen dollars $$$ and Thanks Rock, for fighting for the fans and getting WB high ups removed from undeserved positions. Excited for Man of Steel 2 and Batflecks own movie.
