DC
The adaptation of one of DC comics most favorites heroes is done well in this film. Reeve plays and looks like Clark Kent. The movie is fun,suspenseful and full of action for an 80's movie. Each character in the comic that needs to be involved in the first one is done right. The movie spawned 4 sequels and then was remade more times over. In this case for this series only 2 were needed.

Great story lines
casting over this
New and fresh
loved this 1st series when it arrived, it was fresh and new and a different side of the DC universe that we weren't seeing elsewhere. It did will sticking to the comics and yet changing a few things just enough to keep you guessing. Great dynamic in shifting time frames.

The limited work of Enchantress
Don't know why it got slated
If you follow the comics or some of the games there is a lot of references to Escape from Arkham, admittedly some of the actors were for the sake of the name though taking it purely to the story it is close to the style of the graphic novels.
Rather than watching it expecting happy shiny marvel and the dark Justice League stories approach with an open mind. You will be pleasantly surprised

Best Cartoon Ever
Contains spoilers, click to show
This is the absolute best animated superhero show I have ever seen. Young Justice has of course a wide array of "sidekicks" that pick up the slack while the Justice League is handling bigger issues. Sometimes they join with the League. Time and Time again the so called sidekicks have shown they can handle the big threats like the Justice League can. Even succeed where the League may have failed. If you love comics and superheroes, and a DC lover....Young Justice (season 1) is for you!

What DC really needed at the time
Arrow season one was definitely one of the best seasons and really helped DC since they were kinda struggling along at the time this came out compared to Marvel who was put ping out media left and right.
I absolutely loved the cast and characters they all had such great chemistry and really helped to suck you into to the show. While they had plenty of hidden and not so hidden things for long time comic fans you didn't feel like you had to know anything about the characters or the plot before watching but at the same time as a long time standing fan of the comics it was fresh and fun enough where you didn't feel bored.
The only thing that would get to me and that carries on into later seasons which ultimately led to me stop watching the series is it would get very soap opera-y to the point of rolling your eyes at the screen.

Villain was lacking
Storyline wasn't fleshed out enough
Excellent Movie - Even for a Marvel fan ;)
Let it be said now, I will always love Marvel more than DC because I relate to the characters. I've never particularly been a fan of DC heroes but I've always said they have excellent bad guys. If you're a die-hard fan of the comics this movie probably won't do it for you because there is a lot of interpretation in there. I, however, loved it solely because of the excellent casting. The storyline is a little lacking and I felt the villain in the movie wasn't quite fleshed out enough for it to be a complete movie, if that makes sense. Harley Quinn couldn't have been more perfectly cast (though I might be biased as an Aussie lol), Deadshot had an interesting interpreation from Will Smith and I enjoyed it, Joker was definitely closer to what I've seen in the comics, however I feel his relationship with Harley wasn't shown correctly (it felt more romantic than it should have, he's an awful person and truly treats her like s**t, it's a relationship based on insanity and stockholm syndrome and it didn't feel that way to me) All in all despite a few flaws it was a good movie. I would definitely watch it again.

Doesn't beat the 1st installment
Another Awesome Marvel Movie
Marvel seem to have what it takes to beat down DC comics attempts to make a good movie. No matter which director lands the job of making a MCU film, the job is 90% of the time a massive success (not including the the first 2 fantastic 4 movies, they were dreadful). Although this film had us laughing from the beginning right through til the end, volume 2 doesn't quite match the arse kicking first one. With some pretty big names making their appearance, Guardians Of the Galaxy: volume 2 does kinda fill the void while we all wait for the next marvel release: Thor: Ragnarok.

Very good SFX
Packs a punch
Well one compliment I can give this is it feels more like a Marvel film. Apart from Aquaman, Wonder Woman many DC offerings have not matched the Marvel level. I can't say I've heard of any of the characters before, don't know much of the comics. This feels like a film where you should have already seen some of the characters in another film.
There is a ton of action scenes and plenty of carnage in a fairly straightforward of good vs evil but this time with a God like character who will use violence against the enemy.
It's a very enjoyable film overall if not anything ground breaking in the superhero collection.
