A different way of telling a story
Robert Joyner
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

Do I enjoy this show? Yes. It is the first cartoon like it that I have watched (in that it has many super heroes), so I can't compare it to something like Super Friends. However, when I started watching the show, perhaps I had the wrong expectation. After all, it is a kids show and a cartoon. I had grown somewhat used to the blockbuster movies such as Iron Man, Dark Knight, etc, that gave superheroes SOME level of consistency. To me, that is really the only thing that a superhero really needs: consistency.In this show, consistency is regularly thrown out of the window. The formula seems to be this...yes they are all super heroes, yes they all have super powers, but the second that becomes inconvenient for the plot they become weak. Almost every story pretty much revolves around...wow they got really beat down, how will they win!?...and resolves in...oh, exactly what they have been doing, but somehow their punches and strategy just figured things out this time around. That makes the show frustrating for me. Too often was I like, oh come on Superman (based on previous episodes) should easily be able to handle this..but he doesn't. Then at the end, he does without any explanation except you can assume he tried harder or something.Another irritating point is the fact that not all the super heroes are in every episode. I understand for plot development, there has to be more of a focus on some of them each episode, but the episodes where others just don't show up are annoying. This isn't SNL, this isn't a huge collaboration of people showing up for a live show.... were the animators that drew that cartoon sick that day? Were the voice actors not available to record so they left them out? There were too many times where I thought...man, you know who would be perfect for this situation? Green Lantern or Superman. Where are they? Who knows. End of the world scenario all the time, but they seem to be off taking a nap. All in all it's a good cartoon, but it is still a cartoon. It is very formulaic, and can get annoying in that respect. If you ever think about it logically, you'll get annoyed. Of course suspension of disbelief is necessary, but that suspension gets tough for me when these fictional super heroes are inconsistent with their own powers in the same episode or over many episodes. I would still recommend it to people, but only if it's casually on TV.

I have a real interest in superheroes and in animation, with both together this had all the ingredients to be at least a good show. And it was, no more than that, it is a brilliant show, and one of the best superhero series ever made. Personally I think Batman:The Animated Series just beats it, but Justice League is without a doubt one of the most original, ambitious and deep animated shows out there.The production values are really detailed and rich. You can never go wrong with sophisticated colours, sharp and decisive character features, epic scope and crisp backgrounds, in all four of these areas Justice League succeeds. The music is consistently superb, haunting, rousing and dark, with a main theme that sticks in the mind for a long time.Even more impressive is the depth, story lines and the writing. The writing is brilliant, there are moments of humour but it does always have a focused tone, and it is all sophisticated and taut, a major step up with sappy one liners and clichés that some characters are made to utter in some shows now. I was so impressed with the story lines, even for an animated these story lines are quite deep and complex, but they never cease to be gripping and compelling. Plus the characters have so much depth to them. They aren't boring, useless or clichéd, they all have unique personalities, a purpose and are always well incorporated into the stories.I have always loved Batman, Superman, Hawkgirl, Green Lantern and Wonder Woman, and they are amazing characters here. I was also surprised at how much depth there was to J'onn J'onzz and in a good way, and the villains are interesting too and actually have motives that don't come across as absurd. The voice acting is outstanding too, Kevin Conroy IS Batman in my eyes especially. Overall, this show is fantastic, and I am actually running out of words to describe how truly good Justice League is other than to say if you love superheroes, characters and stories with depth and animation, this is a must see! 10/10 Bethany Cox

this and Samurai Jack are not only in the running for the greatest animated shows of all time, but they are easily in the running for the greatest television shows of all time. it sound like i am some obsessed fan when i say that, and even though i am, i can guarantee you that both of these shows are the really the best shows for our generation. screw the dark night.that makes Batman look like a turd. this makes Batman look like what what he is supposed to look like, a superhero. Please don't run away because it is a cartoon, animation is just another type of genre. this is the best adaptation of comic book to screen, you cant get better than this

I loved the three part of the pilot. The show united some of the great heroes of DC together. All the characters are lovable and seem to have great chemistry, the story lines are very 'grown-up' especially for a children's show. What amazes me is that even though this is a kids show it can easily attract older fans like me, who when this show was running was in his mid teens.The coupling between, Green Lantern and Hawkgirl is quite sweet while Batman and Wonderwoman's love life is hilarious to watch. But it is Flash that takes the cake, Michael Rosenbaum who plays Lex Luthor on Smallville adds the great comedy relief that is needed in a kids show; the animations are beautiful to watch and the fight scenes between villains and superheroes are brilliant.My personal favourite episode is 'The Greatest story never told' it focuses on Booster Gold, a superhero who is ignored and always sidelined by the other superheroes. But during a invasion, he meets a female scientist who needs help and so Booster Gold tries to help realising in the process he is nothing but a wannabe and eventually saves the day. And gets a date.I mean even Superman and Batman couldn't do that. Watching this cartoon is like watching a movie, the suspense is brilliant and the fight scenes are well worth the wait.One of the best cartoons from DC since Batman the animated series.
