There's not enough here to judge really, but it has potential at least.

I like that it's tonally very different from BvS.  There's actual levity and humour.

To distract from all the blood on Batman's hands....urg...I've got a permanently sour taste in my mouth because of where this cinematic universe started.  I can't get past it, and I'm fairly certain I shouldn't try.

:EDIT: Also, half of the costumes look like the worst offenses from Injustice. 

Also also, Marvel should sue DC for putting Namor in their Justice League movie.

I agree about the costumes part.
On the other hand,they started quipping.Hey,it worked for the Avengers.(And got annoying around Age of Ultron) 
On a meta level,Marvel got the movie rights to Namor back a while ago,so this could end up being a counterpart battle soon.  :)

Quipping is great, and it was one of the best parts of AoU.  One of my favorite moments is still that "language!" line.  Unfortunately, they're fighting an uphill battle against the damage they did to Batman's character in these movies.  Going from irrational, nearly psychotic killer to wry, dead-pan joker...just burn it all to the ground and start over.  You've salted these fields.  Nothing can grow here.  It's Carthage after Rome.

Also also also, why is Barry Allen 12 and obviously trying to be Peter Parker from Civil War?

Because Batmans faith in humanity was restored in the previous movie or something?
Btw,contrary to Snyders claims,Batman never killed anyone in DKR,so no hiding behind that.
Back to the topic,they have taken a page from Marvel,which isnt a bad thing.In moderation.
They could have used a similar costume as CW Flash.What was wrong with that one?

It is already being used by another live action version of the same character.  That is what is wrong with it.  The intentionally wanted the movie version of the character to look different and designed a costume that would be instantly recognizable as different.  Movies are always worried about audiences being "confused" by multiple versions of a given character which is why the Justice League cartoon had a "bat embargo" for its later seasons and why the same show couldn't use Aquaman's actual villains.  If the Flash TV show had been developed any later than it was, it probably would never have been permitted in the first place.

That thinking may be loosening up a bit, given that Superman will start showing up on the Supergirl series.

Yeah Batman's transition from psychotic ragemonger brute to calm, leader/chirpy figure is jarring to me at least. It's out of context though so we will see. I never understand why Batman has to kill in this universe. It's lame and a chracter betrayal given how strict his no-kill code is. As far as costumes goes, the trinity looks great and i love they brightened Supes suit in BvS, the moody dark blue was a pain in MOS. Aquaman, Flash and Cyborg look underwhelming though. Cyborg wcould still be enhanced with CGI so i'm not worried about himk but when tv Flash has a better and more faithful costumes than an 250 mill movie, we have a problem.
