It may be a mixed bag, but what it gets right is far better than whatever it gets wrong and it comes really close to being one of the better Superhero films we've gotten in a tired string of bad franchise fatigue.

Despite one of the best visual experiences ever put on screen and the marvel of practicality amid a ever growing world of slop, something just didn't connect. There's a part of me that wonders if Nolan even LIKES The Odyssey, or if he just really wanted to finally tackle the story he's been recreating in pieces his whole life.

There’s a singularity to his work, a strong sense of smart stupidity that make his most absurd films almost inaccessible on purpose. His most straight forward comedies are often completely love it or hate it with nearly 0 middle ground. Now, this [...]

We've had ample time to learn from our mistakes, and refusing to do so in a new era for the DC universe amplifies the let down.
