Justice League: The New Frontier 1
Intro -I've gotta say that I like the story for this movie, it has a pretty clear narrative: Giant alien monster wants to destroy Earth, superheroes have to work together to destroy it. The characters are already well established and the origins have barely changed, so it's not like we are going to get something that can't be justified one way or another.

Justice League is Fantastic!!!!!!!!! 0

The story is great and cast is also great like Jeremy Sisto was great Batman, Kyle MacLachlan was great as Superman and David Boreanaz as Green Lantern.

Started very intriguing only to end with cliche 0
I did not really care for the looks, but the beginning was very engaging.
