It's a shame the cast didn't get better material overall, because as a unit, they're damn fun to watch. Snyder and Whedon nailed the group dynamic, even if it takes a large portion of the film to get them together, and whether they're squabbling, lightly ribbing one another or teaming up to kick some Parademon a**, they're thoroughly entertaining to watch.

No, it's not an Avengers-sized success, but every actor pulls their weight and makes the most of what they've got to work with, ensuring that a better sequel could easily hit the ground running with all the preambles out of the way.

If the movie's edges are rough, at least the glue holding it all together basically works.
