There’s gonna be so much disappointment when it inevitably underwhelms. Sure, there’ll be some saying ‘it makes more sense’ but it won’t stop it from being its own hot mess. And ridiculously laboured if talk of more than three hours is accurate.

3 hrs + is the general directors cut run time for Zack Snyder films and for for filmmakers such as Ridley Scott. And it's perfectly acceptable and fine watching. Ridiculously laborious is quite a stretch.
 
The BvS ultimate edition was about the same length.

Whether it’s good or not, well that’s the question mark. The running time is hardly anything to be concerned about.

Snyder is no Ridley Scott. And as much as I enjoy comic book films personally, they don’t need three hours to tell their story and the longer they go, the more pompous they can be. An exception the Dark Knight and even that’s well under three hours.
 
Yeah I watched the ultimate edition of BvS last week. Its still not great but at least the plot makes sense in that. Cant believe how badly they f’ed up the theatrical edit and released an incoherent movie.
True but it seems Snyder likes making films that are just too long as well.

There might have been a good 2hr movie somewhere in BVS but tacking on Wonder Woman, Doomsday and aspects of the Justice League were just padding and should have been part of a different movie. We do t really know if that was his call but it was impossible to stuff into a 2hr film and he must have known a 3 hour film was not getting released in cinemas.

Should have just kept it simple, introduced WW, Aquaman and Flash in solo films and kept BVS as being between those two.
 
Collin Farrell seen on set as Oswald cobblepot

Kate Mara being looked at as Harley Quinn for a joker 2 funny thing Is Kate’s sister is actually engaged to Joaquin Phoenix so his love interest if any truth would be his sister in law

Farell confirmed he begins filming in 3 weeks.

The villains are lining up fantastically, loving what I’m hearing about Reeves’ direction with this.
 
I watched BoP this morning and I really enjoyed it, it’s the first film I can remember going to and smiling all the way through and not once looking at my watch or thinking what time is it, it must be getting close to the end. Even Deadpool and Wonder Woman (the only two comic book films I’ve enjoyed since the ‘rebirth’) had flat spots, but BoP, perhaps because it was fairly short, seemed to fly by.

If I had a criticism it’s that there wasn’t enough Huntress. You get an actress of the quality MEW you give her more than 10 minutes, but I suppose it’s understandable when you understand the plot and narrator.

As for Margot’s Harley Quinn, she is brilliant, she has the zaniness, the look and facial expressions down pat, she was made for the role. This is the Harley Quinn I hoped to see in Suicide Squad but because of the PG rating we weren't allowed. The MA rating (equivalent of a R in the US) has allowed them to be a more outrageous with the language, violence and comedy and as a result we are taken on a more riotous and enjoyable ride.

Trashy and Messy. Perfectly sums up what’s inside Harley’s head.

I didn’t time it, I was enjoying the movie, but it felt like 10 minutes. She's got the least screen time of all the main characters.

Huntress was the thing i was most looking forward to seeing. Dissapointing to hear she is barely in it. 10 mins sounds like nothing more than a cameo.

Movie seems to be getting ok reviews which I must say is suprising. Coz it looked trash.

It's not really that surprising, it's a girl power movie.

Ten minutes overall of screen time can be very different to “in it for ten minutes”, if you know what I mean. Can be very misleading.

The trailers haven’t really done it for me but yes Huntress was a big drawcard, along with Roman. Keen to see this soon, currently at 90% on RT.

Either way 10 mins screen time is very very low.
Also RT scores are useless imo.

Should’ve added to my post, that in the context of the DCEU films, this has been received very favourably. Hence the reference to RT.

Are you planning on seeing this soon or waiting for streaming? Hoping Huntress features more than we think. Aiming for next week.

Even if I wanted to I dont think i could convince anyone to go wtih me lol.
So I will mostly likely just wait.
 
Better than Suicide Squad still not great. Black Mask, Zsasz and Quinn are great, rest isn’t much chop. There is an early scene that is amazing but it rolls into some cliche action sequences in the second half. Disappointing as they had been on a upswing since SS.
