>>5081849I thought the movie was generally good. I like some of the small details they included like the cars in Metropolis having Delaware plates. There were flaws like character assassinating Jor-El and Lara, some of Clark's behavior being out of character, and points where the Marvel humor undercut serious moments, but I think it is generally a good first step to rebuilding their cinematic universe.
I think the casting choice for Kara is good, and they got her personality right, but I'm not sold on her being a drunk party girl, though one of my online friends who's a much bigger DC and Kara fan didn't have a problem with it. It just depends on whether they have strong enough writers to provide a decent reason for it and give her an actual character arc, but the way Hollywood writes female characters these days doesn't give me a lot of confidence that they'll give her any such nuance.
The real challenge is how they're going to tackle the formation of the Justice League. They rushed into it last time without properly developing any of the characters or their relationships, so we'll have to see if they learned from their mistakes.
