Runs 120 minutes

Batman (Ben Affleck), Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot), Aquaman (Jason Mamoa), Flash (Ezra Miller) and Cyborg (Ray Fisher) must team up to stop Steppenwolf (Ciaran Hinds) from destroying the world. It seems that boxes containing the power to control the Universe have been hidden since ancient times. Once Steppenwolf obtains all three of the boxes, the power unleashed will turn the world back to primordial times and he will reign supreme. Batman, still grieving the loss of Superman, assembles the Justice League to stop Steppenwolf before it is too late. And, maybe atone for Superman's untimely death at the same time.

I have to say that I liked this much more than I expected. The plot is a little lame and Steppenwolf is really weird. But, I loved all of the other characters. The film is funny and even touching in spots. Ezra Miller as the Flash was great. He added much needed youth and humor. The chemistry between everyone else was enjoyable to watch. And, **SPOILER ALERT** a much beloved character even makes a comeback. There are really only two bad words in the whole film. It is very dark. But, it is also hopeful in the end. Overall, a nice installment in the DC comics series. 

Stay for the credits. There are two scenes - one right after the credits start which is funny and short and the other at the bitter end. But, it is worth seeing! So go see Justice League and don't leave until the very end of the credits!
