Zack Snyder's Justice League is slightly more than a fan cut of a film that Warner Bros. gave an earlier release. The original version appeared way back in 2017 at a 120 minute running time.
With Snyder, the original filmmaker back in charge, the film has been given 4k, Dolby Atmos, an extended running time, and enough data throughput to warrant two 4k discs.
I viewed this earlier in the year - via HBO streaming, and the new 4k is night and day in it's appearance in projection.
Originally released in 1.85, the new cut is the proper 4:3, a new aspect ratio being used here for the first time. You'll note that it's far higher than it is wide, and allows for a rather different perspective than we've ever seen.
This cut runs 242 minutes - that's longer than Lawrence, GWTW or Ben-Hur.
Shot primarily in S35 in this 1.33 format, it appears magnificent in projection.
And I believe it's a good film.
Actually, a terrific film, demanding to view, and worth the investment.
A magnificently produced 4k release.
