'Justice League’ Review: Time for DC to Throw in the Towel

I'm just about that way and I'm only 43, the last movie I was dragged to was the most recent "Transformers" movie this summer. All I remember is two hours of bright flashes, loud noises and mayhem. I could not tell you then or now what the plot was suppose to be about. That is pretty much the way it's been with all the action movies in the last decade.

Pretty much. I survived the latest Spiderman and Guardians of the Galaxy movies because of the jokes. The rest was pretty much a blur.

Even the jokes weren't much in themselves. You had to have a really good comic actor (Robert Downey Jr., Chris Pratt) delivering them -- or else a talking raccoon.

Seems like Justice League and the other movies are made with the same cookie cutter, but don't have the talent.

Batman v. Superman was particularly bad because they played it completely straight-faced and without the humor.

If I were Warner Bros., for the next five years, I would offer Christopher Nolan a cool billion dollars and complete creative control over all things DC.

I didn't care for Nolan's Batman movies either. Way too dark and took themselves way too seriously.
