I really liked this, good pace, good background story. It reminded me of The Shining a little in how the lead descended madness through art. I don't mind the social message throughout because it's factual. It took a good angle on the old one.. good horror flick!

I grew up in the late 70's. I understand PTA is a really good film maker as well. This movie was boring, borderline grooming, predatory tone in every single character transaction. Cooper Hoffman crushes his role I will say that, beautifully shot, captured the time, all that worked. But the undertone of the mixed up 25 year old glomming onto a 15 year old kid with no supervision at all was flat out creepy, the dialogue outside of what was written for Cooper Hoffman was just plain weird. After watching all of the other Oscar nominated movies this year I do not understand the love for this film.

After watching this I kinda want every superhero movie to be 4 hours long. What a great new story, it felt like a different movie than the first one completely. No more silly little jokes , no more over done speeches, a lot of what they cut out didn't add anything to the story Snyder was trying to tell so to me it's a different film. Great expansion on Cyborg and the Flash. This was worth the wait and the hype.
