...it still isn't the best of DCU.When I first saw this movie, I loved it (I was 13 or 14 at that time), but when I saw it again yesterday, I didn't knew what was going on, because I saw it completely different than how I saw it for the first time, like most of the jokes that made me laugh once, now I found them a little dumb.I also noticed what most of the reviewers complained about this movie, which is that almost the entire movie was destruction, battles and action, lacking information about the background of the characters, and you know? You're right. There were important details about the past of the members of the Justice League that were missing, particularly of Wonder Woman, Green Lantern and Flash (we never get to know how Wonder Woman arrived to the place were we first see her in the movie).The most interesting thing for me about this movie was to know the origin of Cyborg, because is very well executed and described, except for the fact that he apparently dominates his abilities even tough it's his first day as Cyborg.The film is rated PG-13 as most of the DCU animated movies, but I think it wasn't for that much, only for the language.I must say that I'm a huge fan of DC Comics, especially of the animated movies. And as a fan, I certainly think that this movie was enjoyable, but that, for being a flick that explains the new origin of the JL, it could have been much better than what it was.

I'm new to animated feature length superhero movies, so I'm no expert. But I do know a little something about being entertained, and I was with this one. I like the character design, and the animation is good. What really stood out to me in this one, is Darkseid. Because man he is scary as hell. Just floating along there with his hands behind his back, impossible to beat. He actually kind of scared me. And I'm a huge horror movie buff! I guess the fact that he seems so unbeatable is what makes him scary. Good stuff.I'm no reader of comic books, and I haven't watched that many of these animated superhero movies yes, but so far this is one of my favorites.

Everything is a meh, except for Superman, Green Lantern, and Wonder Woman.For God's sake, Superman is the symbol of hope, I remember Superman as a child as modest, friendly, and cooperative. This new Superman is nothing be an arrogant idiot.Wonder Woman...I don't even know what to say. This WW is a stupid 4-year-old girl who just happens to have fighting abilities.As for Green Lantern...let me quote his own script "I've got a universe to protect!" This Green Lantern, not only arrogant and foolish, is way too weak than the Green Lantern I remember. According to the abilities he showed in this movie, I assume that not only Batman, probably Nightwing could kick his ass.As for plot...is there even a plot for the movie?

So this is an animated movie based on the "NEW 52" DC series that is going on. And I gotta say this movie does kick a lot of ass. There isn't a lot of meat when it comes to the action and character development. But most of the heroes in this movie is well known and a lot of people probably already know their origin stories. So yeah, all the superheroes have their own personality but if it's development your looking for...Well it falls short in that department. Even when it comes to the actual plot, a lot of things are left unexplained. This animated movie seemed like what a mainstream live action Justice League would be like within the hour and 30 minutes margin. My only gripe is the the superheroes portrayed in this movie lacked that heroic spirit, in another words. They are mostly cocky and prideful, but seem to lack integrity and wisdom. Like superman for instance, he is portrayed as this muscle headed jock that just wants to show off his strength. Maybe they wanted to bring out the Golden Age Superman. The movie also takes on a more adult tone to it not mature but more adult, but not to the point where it would effect kids. Justice League: War has cool artwork going for it and despite it's flaws, it's still a pretty entertaining flick.7.4/10
