I feel a little weird because I've seen so much positivity about it but I just thought it was fine. I'm usually not too nitpicky about stuff and just let the story guide me where it does, but for some reason I kept getting taken out of the story at points.I think tonally it was kind of all over the place. Some serious parts and some really goofy parts. Don't get me wrong, I like goofy, but I think there is a limit, especially if the movie is not a comedy.I'm sorry, I really didn't like Lex and his henchmen. They were a bit too goofy for me. Intellectually, I understand Lex and eventually understood what drove him, but for some reason it didn't feel earned to me. Those drone operators seemed a bit too cheesy for me as well.For the most part, I liked the Justice Gang (though the name really made me think of the Injustice Gang everytime I heard it). The standout being Mr. Terrific, even though he seemed way touchier than I remember from the comics. I guess hanging around Guy would do that to you. Wish we got to know more about Hawkgirl (was she an alien? Reincarnation? Just a human with sonic powers and wings?The whole thing with the black hole and Metropolis was kind of confusing to me. That seemed to be the biggest threat to me, but it didn't seem to have been treated as such, as it seemed to be ignored for long periods of time when it was supposed to be quite urgent.Lois and Clark were pretty good for the most part. I did not like the twist with the Els, but whatever. I did not read the comic that shared the title of the upcoming Supergirl movie (like Superman, they changed the title to just the character name though), so I don't know that version of Supergirl, but I didn't like her cameo in the movie. I'm not sure I'll be interested in a movie featuring that character.Anyway, that was just a ramble sorry. It seems kind of negative looking at it, but I didn't hate the movie, but I didn't love it. It was okay. As far as movies go, for me it was the best Superman movie after the '78 movie and its sequel. Superman was never my favorite character though, I think my favorite iteration of the character was the 90s animated series.</blockquote>
