The story chronicles the downfall of <strong>Superman<\/strong> after he kills his pregnant wife <strong>Lois Lane<\/strong> in a delusional, fear gas-induced rage.  His loss leads him down the path of becoming a dictator in the name of so-called &#8220;peace,&#8221; with the accompanying comic book run detailing Superman&#8217;s slow descent into despotism with the aid of several other heroes like <strong>Wonder Woman<\/strong>, <strong>Cyborg<\/strong> and the <strong>Flash<\/strong>.  They form the <strong>One Earth Regime<\/strong>\u2014a planetary police state that kills any and all threats.  Seeing how much success and acclaim the game series has garnered for its unique depictions of iconic superheroes and villains, it seemed only logical for DC to release an <em>Injustice<\/em> film. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The long awaited film adaptation of <em>Injustice<\/em> is, for the most part, a half-baked adaptation of the original story with some some glaringly obvious detractions from the source material.  To first speak about what the film did right, I should mention the <em>look<\/em> of the film.  Character designs are essentially yanked from <em>Injustice Gods Among Us<\/em> or <em>Injustice 2<\/em> and adapted to meticulous detail.  As an avid player of both games, I appreciated that the art direction of the film stayed faithful to how the characters looked.  The animation is also pretty decent, especially in the complex fight sequences.  <em>Injustice<\/em> 2021 has its fair share of battles, which are easily the most entertaining parts of the movie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/green-lantern-injustice-1024x576.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-40849\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/green-lantern-injustice-1024x576.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/green-lantern-injustice-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/green-lantern-injustice-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/green-lantern-injustice.jpeg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The voice cast for the film is a mixed in terms of quality.  <strong>Justin Hartley<\/strong> delivers a pretty solid performance as Superman, as he successfully captures the same mixture of authority and guilt that the character evokes in the games.  <strong>Gillian Jacobs<\/strong> is also great as <strong>Harley Quinn<\/strong>; for someone who has not voiced the character before, she does a good job of emulating Quinn.  <strong>Anson Mount<\/strong>&#8216;s portrayal of <strong>Batman<\/strong>, however, falls on the other side of the spectrum; his portrayal of the Caped Crusader comes across as flat and emotionless.  Perhaps this was an intentional acting choice, but it simply does not work for the heated conflict between Batman and Superman in this story.  The rest of the cast gets their job done well, though their performances are not all too remarkable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The main problem with <em>Injustice<\/em> is that it attempts to do too much, essentially compacting a story better fit for a mini-series into a film with less than an hour and a half of runtime.  A lot of interesting side character arcs from the source material are either sidelined or removed entirely because the film is speeding through so many events from the several <em>years<\/em> of <em>Injustice<\/em> comics it is drawing inspiration from.  Characters like <strong>Barry Allen <\/strong>and <strong>Shazam<\/strong>, who offer moral complexity to the overall story of the <em>Injustice<\/em> franchise, are greatly underutilized in the animated feature; other characters only get one or two lines.  The range of characters being used to tell the <em>Injustice<\/em> story has to be wide because it effects the entirety of this universe, but because of the film&#8217;s limited run time, the story can only fixate on Superman, Batman, and a handful of other characters who come up merely when the plot demands it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"539\" src=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/injustice-jl-animated-1024x539.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-40850\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/injustice-jl-animated-1024x539.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/injustice-jl-animated-300x158.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/injustice-jl-animated-768x404.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/injustice-jl-animated.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Besides the tragedy in Metropolis that is responsible for setting off Superman in the first act of the movie, <em>Injustice<\/em> 2021 mostly feels hollow and ineffectual.  Over the years leading up to the <em>Injustice: Gods Among Us<\/em> story, Superman slowly becomes more and more corrupt, to the point that he is beyond saving.  In the comics, we see events transpire across the span of five years leading up to the events in the original game&#8217;s campaign, and in these many conflicts we see not just Superman and Batman, but also many of their respective allies, progressively become more jaded.  Superman eases into the position of morally corrupt dictator and Batman becomes more and more desperate to overthrow Kal, with new players in the universe slowly introduced over time.  However, the film takes moment after moment from the comics and hammers them into the plot at a rapid fire pace.  The audience is not given a lot of time to breathe and take in the repercussions of any given event and the effects are not really felt among characters besides Batman and Superman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The ending in particular leaves the film feeling inconsequential.  Without spoiling, I can say that the conclusion of <em>Injustice<\/em> fails to commit to what people <em>actually<\/em> wanted to see happen with this adaption.  It&#8217;s almost like the movie gets cold feet in its third act and abandons the whole idea of dictator Superman that it has been building up towards its entire runtime.  <em>Injustice<\/em> offers a mere taste of what could have been before ultimately changing its mind about what it wants to do in its final 20 or so minutes.  The end result is a movie that feels like it gave up on itself in its conclusion; all of the events throughout the movie seem meaningless with the ending we are given.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"454\" src=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/batman-and-superman-header-inj-1024x454.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-40793\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/batman-and-superman-header-inj-1024x454.png 1024w, https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/batman-and-superman-header-inj-300x133.png 300w, https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/batman-and-superman-header-inj-768x341.png 768w, https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/batman-and-superman-header-inj-1536x681.png 1536w, https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/batman-and-superman-header-inj.png 1921w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While I had hopes that <em>Injustice<\/em> would deliver an excellent movie adaptation of one of the strongest DC stories in recent years, it simply falls flat as a hollow, rushed shell of what could have been.  The film&#8217;s plot skeleton offers a potentially great story, but it simply tries to capture too much in too short amount of time.  Had this been a limited series, or even a two-parter, I think <em>Injustice<\/em> could have been significantly better.  However, it is simply an overloaded, half-baked adaptation of the source material.  It is still worth a watch, especially for those who are not familiar with the original story and therefore will not see the apparent changes made to the film, but it is certainly not in the upper echelon of DC animated features. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Injustice<\/em> is available now on Blu-Ray and digital.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"entry-summary\">\nThe &#8220;Injustice&#8221; animated feature falls flat for trying too much with too little time, made worse with an ending that leaves the viewer unsatisfied.\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"link-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/?p=40772\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &ldquo; &#8220;Injustice&#8221; (2021)&rdquo;<\/span>&hellip;<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":28,"featured_media":40794,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[6,15],"tags":[97,5436,368,668,1064],"class_list":["post-40772","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-film-tv","category-reviews","tag-batman","tag-injustice","tag-injustice-gods-among-us","tag-superman","tag-wonder-woman","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>[Review] &quot;Injustice&quot; (2021) - The Cultured Nerd<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/?p=40772\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"[Review] &quot;Injustice&quot; (2021) - The Cultured Nerd\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The &quot;Injustice&quot; animated feature falls flat for trying too much with too little time, made worse with an ending that leaves the viewer unsatisfied.
