I really enjoyed The Snyder Cut, but it's also an impossible film. At a run time of 242 minutes it's a 4+ hour film. That's not a film, it's a miniseries. Hell it even has chapters.
The Justice League film has too much to cover in a short period of time. Most of the animated films get around this by just throwing the characters at you. If they have a story you just jump into it or we get a quick flashback.
But this era of films is full of origin stories. Each character needs an origin before we use them. This isn't true if you look at the more recent Superman film, Guy Gardener, Hawkgirl, Mister Terrific, they just are.
I do think there are still some story issues with the Justice League film. I think killing Superman (last film) only to bring him back immediately is a bit silly.
But given the film was trying to do everything, I think it did a good job. Should it have? No. But that was the goal, and don't dislike what we got.
More or less agreed.
It was overstuffed, but since it was never meant to be a theatrical cut, chose to lean into the excess.
