Justice League: The New Frontier (2008)

I do like some aspects of this film. The period piece aspect of the entire hero world felt different. Usually period pieces are done with solo outings. The ending where everything came together was done well. The steps getting there however felt sluggish and bland. This felt like an homage to the golden/silver age of comics. I would have liked more interaction with the Justice League members. It is a fine movie overall but not one I’ll actively watch again in the future. The voice actors were some pretty solid names. This had potential but didn’t quite do it for me.
