RottenTomatoes Score: 92% (7.5/10)

Box Office: The DCEU's latest came with a hefty $149 million price tag, but surpassed most initial projections and smashed countless records with its $103.3 million opening weekend.

Thanks to strong reviews the movie managed to avoid the steep second weekend drops of Batman v Superman and Suicide Squad in particular, and has just crossed the $700 million mark, easily surpassing Man of Steel's final $668 million total.

Verdict: The DCEU finally gets something in the win column with this decidedly Marvel-esque superhero movie that deftly balances light and dark while delivering entertaining action and a slew of fine performances.

Yes, it gives way to typical third-act superhero movie nonsense in the end, but for the most part this is a terrifically well-calibrated effort, and suggests that the worst just might be over for Warner Bros' struggling comic book universe.
