The Rotten Tomatoes score of Justice League was supposed to be revealed tonight, right after Midnight, but someone managed to spot the score while using the Flixster app. Fast Company took a screenshot of the score:
It’s in line with what the reviews for the film were saying, though it’s probably a bit harsh considering Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice had a pretty low rating (29% I believe). It’s said to be better than that film, but not better than Wonder Woman.
Charlies Roven, one of the DC Films producers, recently said that the movie is about 80% Zack Snyder’s:
“The goal is to make sure when you’re watching the movie, it all feels cohesive. That imprint that Joss had, some aspect of it is going to come out in the direction, but the actors are already pretty much down the road on their arcs. Let’s just say 80, 85 percent of the movie is what was originally shot. There’s only so much you can do with other 15, 20 percent of the movie.”
Ben Affleck responded to the Batman v Superman backlash, by saying:
“I can understand people saying it was too dark, or this was outside the tone of what I’m used to seeing with a Batman story, and I think that’s a fair criticism.”
He then went on to explain that Snyder wanted to make a movie that was more fun:
“Zack wanted to make a movie that was more fun, that was a little bit light, that wasn’t so encumbered with heavy melodrama.”
The film’s synopsis: Fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman’s selfless act, Bruce Wayne enlists newfound ally Diana Prince to face an even greater threat. Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to recruit a team to stand against this newly awakened enemy. Despite the formation of an unprecedented league of heroes — Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg and the Flash — it may be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.
Justice League hits theaters everywhere Friday.
