Only three days remain until HBO Max plays host to the premiere of
Zack Snyder’s Justice League
,
the famed DCEU director’s retelling of the disastrous 2017 team-up feature
.
After almost a year’s worth of teases and discussions
for a film that’s been rumored to exist since 2018, director Zack Snyder will finally have the opportunity to show his vision for what
Justice League
was supposed to be.
Coming as a non-canon version of the DCEU’s major team-up movie
, fans are already curious to see how it will compare critically to the original,
which is one of the lowest-rated films in the franchise
as well as its worst performer at the box office. As a whole, while the DCEU has had some moments of success with entries like
Wonder Woman
and
Shazam!
, it’s largely seen a great deal of disappointment in terms of reviews and ratings.

THE SNYDER CUT RATES FAVORABLY ON ROTTEN TOMATOES
Rotten Tomatoes
revealed that its official critics approval rating for
Zack Snyder’s Justice League

STRONG RATINGS FOR ZACK SNYDER
Even considering
the huge quantity of information Zack Snyder has revealed about this movie’s plot
, it’s still hard to tell exactly how good it will be. The general assumption is that it will at least be more favorable than the 2017 theatrical cut, but these ratings on Rotten Tomatoes seem to indicate an even higher bar being set by Snyder and the movie’s cast and crew.
With the Snyder Cut coming in at over four hours in runtime
, there should certainly be enough material to keep viewers interested through the duration of this retelling. More than a handful of new personalities will find their way into the plot of
Justice League
like Ray Porter’s Darkseid and Jared Leto’s Joker, but a 74% rating says that
critics view this film as somewhat of a successful endeavor
.
As is usually the case, there are no specific criteria revealed for this rating, but it should have fans curious to see what brought the critics to this consensus decision. While the Snyder Cut still comes short of the DCEU’s best movies like
Wonder Woman
and
Shazam!
, early signs point to this being an outing that will be fairly well-received.
