Ok, I'll put it in simple terms then.

I enjoyed it.

Simple as that. It's a movie, that I went to see because I wanted to be entertained. It entertained me. Job done.

I'd happily go to see it again, I'll happily pay to own it when it gets released and I've already sent numerous friends off to see it, all of whom have come back and said they enjoyed it.

Job done

wait, what? I only saw one scene, what was the second one?

Corrected for you

I would argue that Waller is not a bad guy per se, she's generally on the side of right, she just has a very harsh way of going about it, with things like the Suicide Squad, the Eclipso task force, etc.

As for the portrayal of Hal, well, worked fine for me. People have to stop expecting it to be just like in the comics. I've yet to see ANY superhero film that gets it right in matching all the things in the comics, even the Superman movies got it wrong, with things like amnesia kisses and levitation fingers. Recent Batman movies changed a LOT to suit the film and it worked great.

I see the same here. The basic principles of the character are right. Hal was always a flawed man, trying to deal with his life and issues and having amazing power thrust upon him and how he deals with that. Over the years he matured but at first, he was an airforce flyboy, with various origins showing he was a bit of a screw-up mess, with things like DUI's, jail time, being a loner, emotional fallout over his fathers death etc.

For me, they got Hal very right and I liked that. It was Hector Hammond they completely changed, and again, totally worked for the film.

.......ok, what the hell was that??

That's a review website?

Sheesh!

Couldn't agree more! All films should strive to be as good as movies such as this, but I don't expect them to be, to be honest

Pfft, bring it on, Foamy :P

Seriously, not saying it's the best film in the world, or even the best superhero film in the world, nor is it without it's flaws, there's always things in any film that could be done better, but compared to a LOT of other superhero flicks, it's a good, fun movie! Shall we compare it to the stodginess of Superman Returns? Or the sheer awfulness of Catwoman? What about the excrement that was Wolverine? Or X3??

Given how much it seems to be polarising opinions, I just think people should see it for themselves and then decide. I know people who love it like me and hate it like yourself. There's no universal love like Dark Knight got, nor the universal hatred that Catwoman got either.

Don't be so sure.

I love the good Doctor, but I adored the Sherlock series as well! Can't wait for a new series of that.

This is probably because, as you said, most of them no longer exist

There's a great page on Wikipedia about it here, shows exactly how many episodes are missing and how many of the storylines got ruined as a result of the BBC junking years back.

It's practically criminal, really
