They did it
12 July 2021
Firstly, this movie is very boring, which is almost an achievement, however one that deserves extra punishment, given the ingredients. Or maybe it just shows inherent flaws of the ingredients. That is a bigger discussion that is not worth getting into now and one can ignore to evaluate this movie.

Again, it is as boring as these things get, almost like an old TV episode, whatever the reasons are in detail. It is very stretched, with poor pacing and subplots, for one. It also contains everything one finds annoying about these things even one is trying to like them, like wobbly, annoying powerscaling that is inconsistent according to plot demands or to give a more important character, that previously was shown as quite weak, an edge over a less important character, that previously was shown to be very strong (and is not even a bad guy), and so on.

It contains a lot of cruelty that is automatically supposed to be a big plus. I don't know and don't even really care about that, but as part of that they make the storytelling very moody, and of all things give a certain "Damian Wayne" which apparently is a Robin character from Teen Titans a leading role as a moody, annoying brat, and we are supposed to believe (explicitly told several times by one character) that he is very cool and likeable... It is simply the worst character I can even remember, and giving him a lead role is obviously a mistake.

So, for trivial, avoidable, but very real reasons, and because it is boring, it just is not any good or recommendable whatsoever, except as that boring movie that is (perhaps unexpectedly) too uninteresting to watch in full.
