THE PLOT:

In the 1950s and McCarthy nuts have turned their attention against the world's super heroes. But among the fighting this wave of hatred and the normal crime fighting an invasion has started, an invasion from space. Now the world will have to turn to the world's heroes or will they just turn their backs on us?

ZEDD'S OPINION:

I liked this Justice League, no major re-writes and keeping it fateful to the very old school comics is like very cool. There are some minor character issues which could have been better and I could have done without the Government attacking super heroes. But other then that this is a great movie with a great cast. 9 STARS.

VOLTRON'S OPINION:

The creature designs are cool and the story works for the most part, I got more annoyed at the whole McCarthy witch hunt more then Zedd did. 8 STARS.

ON THE POSITIVE SIDE (+ HITS):

+ CAST (The cast does a great job.)
+ ANIMATION (Some of the best animation in modern time.)
+ STORY (For the most part workable)
+ TIME PERIOD (Making it the fifties was brilliant.)
+ FATEFUL (Staying fateful to the characters during that time period was brilliant.)

ON THE NEGATIVE SIDE (- MISSES):

- MINOR CHARACTER ISSUES (Certain characters were unlikable)
- MCCARTHISM (The idea of McCarthy attack super heroes got in the way of the main story.)

...AND FINALLY...

- FAN BASED (If you aren't big fan of these characters, then don't hold your breath you'll like this.)
