Just came out from this one.
I had so much fun. Even if there are some clunky vfx moments, and most of the times the humor is not good; the movie is a blast and Miller is very very good in this.

My non-spoiler review:
oh my god so much bad cgi. like, what is the point?
painfully unfunny, but boy does it try to be funny. It doesn't try a lot of different things, it just does different versions of the same joke pattern over and over and over

I'm not sure this worked at all but I really, really liked it.
I can only assume all the bad, unnecessary CGI was a result of the movie being rearchitected in light of the DCEU falling apart, needing to repurpose the movie at the 11th hour. They probably had to create a bunch of new stuff on the fly and didn't have access to the actors.
Anyway, I had a lot of fun despite its glaring flaws. I wish they'd taken a shot at this movie 5 or 6 years ago.

It's weird, the more I think back to this movie the more confused I am as to whether I actually liked it or not. I think I did?! It's messy and weird and thematically muddled and has some of the most awful CGI I've ever seen but I also found it extremely fun and very moving at parts. Yeah I did cry during that scene. Also Sasha Calle was both very good and smoking hot. Interesting that the film takes the Zack Snyder Justice League as canon and not the Whedon one (it references both Barry saving Iris West from the car accident and Barry traveling back in time during the battle against Steppenwolf, both things that were removed from the Whedon JL), Overall it might be a fitting end to the Zack Snyderverse; a decade-plus of confounding choices, fascinating failures, and flashes of greatness.
the babies looked terrible and not even remotely real.
The cameos were all great and done well. I loved all the little nods to the first Keaton Batman film. I figured out the big bad in the time bubble fairly quickly. Wasn’t expecting the fight with Zod to end like it did but it was done well. Part of me wonders if they reworked it after seeing what was done in that last Spider-Man movie.
It was just a really fun movie that I will actually watch again. First DC movie in a very long while I’ve said that about.
The after credits scene is a waste of time.

so was it ever stated that the flash who traveled back in JLA was alt-barry. the head gear kind of adds up but the facial hair doesnt (least i recall there was facial hair)
