Parent View:
To be brutally honest – its a real shame Warner Brothers didn’t make the producers of this film decide if they wanted a normal ’12A’ DC Justice League film and play it safe commercially or keep with the gritty very adult themed first 20 minutes of the movie throughout as Justice League content-wise is a movie of two halves (or 1 and 3/4). Once the suicide squad have left ‘Arkham Asylum’ the contents no different to any other 12A movie. But the first 20 minutes are not appropriate for most kidz under 15 years old to view and this sets the scene for the whole movie. If they had of kept the opening tone the same as the rest of the film this movie would have easily been a 12A and probably much more accessible for the wider fanbase. That said it’s really good fun and a cross between the first original Ghostbusters and The Mummy.
3D Blu-Ray Review:
The 3D FX are good quality although a bit dark at times to really enjoy the effects. Like many Super Hero 3D films there is a constant flurry of FX’s throughout with the best of the 3D saved for the finale.
