Review of Injustice

Injustice (2021)
7/10
Not as good as the comics, but an impressive attempt.

Injustice was always going to be difficult to adapt, arguments would be waged on whether it should be an entire universe or a series, but I think this singular movie has covered it well. It won't please everyone and I understand some of the critics of this film, but I'll explain why I liked it.

Firstly it covers the major highlights of each volume rather well, it's inferior to the comic yes but it does a sound job in making these highlights coincide smoothly.

Some of the character deaths will annoy people and I understand one particular one rather well, even though I thought it was clever. As far as I know most were accurate, and they drew good emotion when they occurred.

The ending was great, and I much prefer it to the video games ending, which without the video game component would make little sense if any. I didn't enjoy the twist with the video game either, so having this film pretty much ignore that pleased me very much.

I liked the animation, I liked the voice acting, and I found the length to be satisfying, and it covered most of the material that needed to be covered.

There's definitely some stuff that would've been cool to see in this adaptation, but overall I'm happy, and I prefer this to any of the other DC animated stuff as of late.
