I was looking at the various superhero movies Snyder has done and I came back to this title. I am sure it isn't perfect, but I can't personally find a flaw. I don't know the source material so it was a seamless story to me. I have shown this and the Directors cut to various friends over the years to universal approval.
I would say the fantastic soundtrack is going to get more traction with younger Boomers and Gen Xers but that is maybe part of the appeal as current superhero films don't target these groups. Its weird and unique IMO and certainly Snyder's best work.
A pity there was not enough money made to generate a sequel but that has prevented the legacy from being tainted unlike what happened to the Hellboy series.
If you know someone who thinks all superhero movies are "a type" and has no use for the overpopulated MCU universe, this is something to show them. Like Sin City, it promises to be something they won't have seen before and would not be expecting.
