Is the movie worth a watch for the wife and I? She wants something “non-depressing”, she is down to watch it but she will fall asleep no matter what we choose, so I end up watching it and the reviews don’t look to good.
Pretty depressing

once you realize how much better it could have been. I'd pass.
I enjoyed it

that’s pretty much the definition of “damning with faint praise”.
It is definitely better than the reviews indicate...

But is still a whole lot of meh. You can tell how hard they tried to add levity and copy the Marvel formula. I don't think they failed in that regard, the movie just has a terrible villain. A CGI mess of a villain.
Agreed

The villain is the downfall. That's the thumb in the eye part of the movie.

But there's some other fun stuff in there. Each time I see him in the role, Affleck as Batman kind of grows on me.
And I could watch Gal Gadot

read the instructions on paint cans for an hour and come away smiling.
I thought it was ok

Villain definitely sucked, but what was disappointing is that Batman seems very pathetic next to real super heroes with actual powers.
Not just for JLA but also the Netflix Marvel guys

and, also for the DC Tv guys like the new Black Lightning and Even Arrow to some extent...I am just so tired over the reluctant, angsty, broody, conflicted, whiny superhero. Man up and save someone with enthusiasm.
Gal Gadot's

version of WonderWoman is IMO the best superhero that has come out in the movies in along time...

Not just because she is attractive but she plays her so well. Just for that reason I'd watch it. The Flash was also very funny.

i thought it was better than the reviews give it.

Alot of it shined and the villian was meh. it was better than the Last Jedi but thats my .02
Its entertaining  
Tom in DC : 2/15/2018 8:47 am : link
It doesn't come close to where Marvel has set the bar, but its worth a watch. The criticism of the villain is valid. This is the ultimate team up of superheroes and they go against an entirely generic CGI villain you have seen before any number of times.

But, its entertaining to the point where you can enjoy it without criticizing it for its missed opportunists
Worth it

They do a good job in introducing the new characters, there is more than enough to entertain you for two hours.
There are better comic book movies to watch
