Have to admit I was keen on seeing this as this marks the first real foray into NuDC's 52 universe. And its a massive disappointment. The storyline itself is good, but then it should be. It borrows heavily from some of the better writers in Comicdom and their opening Justice League arc.
Sadly though, the art is basic to say the least and lazy to be more negative. The voices are a half decent fit with some very mediocre voice acting but the characterisation...where do we start?? I'm unsure of whether to lay the blame at the film or whether the true fault lies in DC's reimagining of the heroes for this new 52-verse.
Batman is his usual aloof self, Superman comes off as a cold arrogant a$$, Captain Marvel is more of a dunderhead than usual, Hal is a schoolboy in a mans body and wonder woman comes off as a real Bee-you-know-what.
Only Barry and Vic get to resemble something of themselves.
One to miss I'm afraid.
