The complaints about The Flash really seem to just be about the actor's real world antics and the "bad" CGI, it's actually quite a good film.

This was how super hero movies should be made.
It was amazing, and kevin smith's superman script even made it in. Genius

[richardhoehn]

Personally, I enjoyed this film. Great work all around, although the CGI could have been better. And honestly? I was prepared for Christian Bale to step out of the car at the end of this film 😆

Even though the studio may still hold on to the 2017 version of the JL as Canon, no one else does. The directors all consider ZSJL to be the definitive version. The Flash only makes sense if you watch the Synder version.

I really enjoyed the film, and probably enjoyed it more bc I had read Andy Muschetti’s comments about the CGI before I saw it and took his word that it was purposeful. There is definitely a solid difference between the quality of CGI in normal reality vs that in the speed force and using that as a perceptual mechanic actually is brilliant if you know that’s the intent.

Phasing through object was shown in Zack Snyder's Justice League except it was a shockwave caused by mother box

I really enjoyed the movie. As an all time flash fan. It's actually a great movie. The way they showed Barry running, saving lives all in slow mo. I believe there is lots of hate because of Ezra Miller's real life dark side. People are just showing hate on the company and making sure that it bomb in cinema

I'm glad Ben is portraying batman one more time in Aqua Man 2, to finally end the snyder verse movies and hopefully on a good note, but hopes are low due to the issues with Amber.

[benlarge]

So who killed his mum? Reverse flash. This new flash, , ??

[batjohnthebro]

Josstice League is not canon. There are callbacks to Flash going back in time which ONLY HAPPENED DURING ZACK SNYDERS JUSTICE LEAGUE!!

[angelrosadomusic]

THE BEST PART OF THIS MOVIE WAS MICHAEL KEATON NO DOUBT, THEY SHOULD BRING HIM BACK WITH MORE BATMAN MOVIES MAYBE A TRILOGY, THAT BE UNBELIEVABLE!!!

[baroquebeatz]

Guys the Flash takes places after the events of Zack Snyder’s Justice League. That’s why he referenced the turning back of time for 3 seconds in Russia to Batfleck.

[DecentGhostXbox]

Still a good movie..
7-8 rating, B..
Worth the watch..
Better most marvel movies released not long ago...

[mdpeterson]

It’s very cool to hear so many people here enjoyed the movie.

[jaycec]

The biggest hole in he Flash is that they broke the “Two Barrys” rule they established. At the end, when Barry “returns” to the “wrong” present, where is the other Barry who belongs to that timeline?

[erickdiaz]

The Jay Garrick that they showed was John Wesley Shipp who was the original flash in the 90’s

[georgepitcher]

I think the biggest issue with the film is Barry - who only just started working at the CCPD as a janitor after the events of Justice League - needed to go to the Crime Lab at CCPD to give his younger self powers? A space he couldn't have had access to in order to get his powers in the first place - because he didn't work there in the original timeline. It was NEVER established where he was when he got his powers in the DCU. He had the powers in BVS. He acknowledges a bolt of lightning struck him in Justice League but doesn't say where. He didn't work at the CCPD before that movie - would he have been there before the events of Justice League.

[SoloCityTravels]

I think this film was just OK. I enjoyed it, it was a fun movie watching experience, but I wouldn’t say it’s a great movie. I put it in the same category as venom

[djmattblack]

The only thing i didnt understand is how come the Batman in young Barrys universe is so much older than the Batman in prime Barrys universe even though its ten years before. Then when he does change everything back apart from one minor detail the Batman in prime Barrys universe is different again. Was great to see Keatons Batman back again and its a pity they didnt use him more as he was probably the best part of the movie

[traderrohan]

Don't know why critics are trashing the movie, it was fantastic i loved it.
