30 minutes are enough, won't be able to go for more, such a collection clichés, be they for characters or plot. And visually so so cheap. If it's the new star wars we're doomed!

The first 30 minutes was the only good part of the movie. You made the right choice skipping the rest of the entire movie, it was terrible
So unoriginal, watching this just feels like watching a recycled version of every movie it's based on. Snyder saying that this is his version of Star Wars doesn't excuse any of it, that's just lazy.
It's a good looking movie overall but the set and action pieces lack originality, there's nothing visually memorable here. The same can be said about the characters, they're so incredibly run-of-the-mill and cliché. I like the storyline of recruiting members throughout the movie but it's done in such a repetitive way and we barely get to know any of them. Not enough interactions between them either. It's as if scenes are missing from the movie to connect everyone.
There's at least a lot of action throughout the movie, especially in the second half. While they're nothing we haven't seen before, they feel pretty engaging and the slow motion is used well—I'd even say not enough slow motion for a Snyder movie. If I had to pick, my two favorites would be the "riding the Harry Potter Hippogriff, Game of Thrones style" and the "Sith woman vs. Spider woman" sequences.
There's a few exceptions but the acting is bad, unnatural cringe dialogue, underwhelming story and too much exposition dumping. Very disappointing overall. Not excited for part 2. Apparently there's an R-rated version of this, why not release the two versions at once?!

@hirkiti yeah I don't know what Snyder was thinking about doing something so obviously plagiarizing and old fashioned... it's a basic recipe plain bologna sandwich alright, but it's edible.
It's a 4 right now but it might become a 3 eventually, when I realize how forgettable this is.
The same can be said about most of the stuff Netflix uses money on.
