Not sure if it was ever destined to be any kind of masterpiece.

 

It's really a vehicle to get DC and Justice League a step closer to where Marvel is already up and running with the Avengers.  Have your core characters with their own franchises, with an additional one to bring them all together.

 

I have to believe that if they had any real competition other than My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2, I doubt the box office would have been quite as big.

 

Man of Steel, I felt, was quite awful... but it was an admittedly necessary reboot.

 

With this one, I'm relegating to waiting for DVD.  I just wasn't drawn in not caring for the current Superman franchise, and not much interest in the new stand-in for Batman, either.  Batman has almost become the Colonel Sanders commercials, where they keep constantly swapping out the guy in the costume.  Back to the time between Keaton and Bale.
