THE ANGELS – Fans disappointed by the 2017 movie League of Justice you can finally see the original director’s vision for the film that brought several DC Comics superheroes together on screen for the first time. Zack Snyder’s cut from League of Justice debuted Thursday on HBO Max.

“This movie would not exist at all without the fans, without the pressure of the fans and without their constant pace and without their dedication to a level that you can’t even imagine,” Snyder told Reuters in an interview.

Mr. Snyder and his wife Deborah, producer, left the original film before it was finished after the death of their daughter. The movie was completed by Avengers director Joss Whedon and complained about critics and fans who thought the narration was disjointed and the visuals messy.

Fans began pushing for WarnerMedia to release the movie version of Mr. Snyder. They even bought a billboard in New York’s Times Square in October 2019 to promote their cause. In an unusual move, the company agreed and let Snyder rework a black and white version that he had completed in 2017.

The new film goes into more detail about many characters, including Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, The Flash, Aquaman, and Cyborg, and explains the motives of their enemy, Steppenwolf. The stars include Ben Affleck as Batman, Henry Cavill as Superman, and Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman.

Critics have generally applauded Snyder’s version. The movie earned a 77% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes, a website that aggregates reviews, as of Tuesday, compared to 40% for the 2017 movie.

The new film is four hours long and divided into chapters of about 30 minutes each to provide options for viewers who watch it at home, Deborah Snyder said. “They can see it, see it in excess to the end or they can see it in parts,” he said. – Reuters
