The Flash (2023) FULL REACTION
Added 2023-08-07 15:45:11 +0000 UTCThe return of Michael Keaton as Batman was an exciting moment for many, but it's unfortunate that the potential of this opportunity wasn't fully realized. The film held a wealth of promise with its multiverse narrative, following Barry's quest to rewrite his past. However, certain moments of CGI felt out of place, falling short of the high standard one would expect from such a production. The portrayal of the youthful 18-year-old Barry, while undoubtedly meant to be distinctive, occasionally came across as rather bothersome, particularly his laughter.
On a positive note, the film effectively tugged at our nostalgia by reintroducing Keaton's Batman, complete with the iconic batcave, batmobile, and familiar computer setup. These elements successfully tapped into the enchantment of the early 90s. Ben Affleck's reprisal of Batman was a welcome sight, and the well-executed surprises sprinkled throughout the movie added to its appeal. Given the current state of the DC universe, it's a bit challenging to pinpoint where this film fits in. We hope the James Gunn reboot will be a positive one.
All in all, the dedication of the cast and crew deserves recognition, even if the movie doesn't necessarily demand immediate viewing. Skipping it wouldn't necessarily leave you feeling like you've missed out on a significant piece of the puzzle given the current state of the DC universe, it's a bit challenging to pinpoint where this film fits in. We hope the James Gunn reboot will be a positive one.

The whole Phasing thing, Barry does that in the Tv show often. So it makes sense for this Barry to be able to do it as well. Also the Nic Cage Superman wasn't Kevin Smith's, it was Tim Burtons, He was supposed to do Superman Lives after he had success w/ the Batman films he did, but after two years of working on it, WB scrapped it.

2023-09-28 05:25:26 +0000 UTCIt makes me chuckle a bit to see people commenting about how they won't watch this movie because of Ezra..? You know just about every single actor is nuts? Some just get more exposure but watching an actor do his job is different than watching them be nuts in the real world. He did a fantastic job in this.

2023-08-27 22:17:07 +0000 UTCSame! And I usually try to separate the actor from the movie because I don't think it's fair to the rest of the cast and crew who worked hard on it but I just couldn't this time. Same with Aquaman 2, I refuse to watch anything with Amber Heard.

2023-08-08 11:13:13 +0000 UTCI was fortunate enough to see this movie twice before its public release. During my first screening, the ending featured Sasha Calle and Keaton in the court scene, but they ultimately went with the second test featuring George Clooney.

2023-08-08 03:04:21 +0000 UTCUm. Maybe exercise a little common sense here. Offering to provide a link for an illegal, pirated copy...are you trying to make Badd Medicine lose their account?

2023-08-07 20:28:43 +0000 UTCI'm definitely in the camp that says standing by Miller while booting Cavill and the others was...well, it was definitely a choice. And frankly it was a stupid gamble on WB's part. I doubt that Miller's reputation was the ONLY reason the movie tanked, but I'm positive it was the most significant problem, and also I think the extremely negative response to WB and Gunn's crass and very public snubbing of Henry Cavill was another factor. The internet, and social media specifically, has been around for a hot minute now and the fandom backlash against both those things was undeniable. So personally I really don't understand why WB or Gunn apparently did not believe their idiotic decisions would not move the needle on public reception.

2023-08-07 19:10:57 +0000 UTCHonestly the bad karma being immediately returned for WB deciding their most problematic performer was the one they wanted to stand by and give another movie, which immediately became a total disaster, while booting Cavill and, I assume, Gadot and Momoa out the door is just… *chef’s kiss*. I didn’t love the Snyderverse stuff in general but those three performances (and Affleck, for that matter; he was perfectly solid as Batman) we’re not remotely the problem. That's also not to say that Ezra Miller is bad in the role. But obviously, Ezra has had a LOT of very troubling stuff transpire, and they're clearly in need of serious mental health help, which I hope they get. But it was just such a very strange hill for WB to choose to die on.

2023-08-07 18:20:17 +0000 UTCFor me The whole point of this movie was the ending for the flash to end up in a different time line even after “setting everything right” so all the future projects are set in a different time line to the Snyder verse.

2023-08-07 17:08:26 +0000 UTCFrom the cringe jokes to the terrible cgi and using cgi dead actors to hype up cheap nostalgia while losing 200 million dollars, this movie really has it all.

2023-08-07 16:49:16 +0000 UTCI'm with you. I'll support their channel and slap a like on the YT vid of this, but I won't be watching anything with Ezra Miller involved.

2023-08-07 16:44:07 +0000 UTCWe’re you guys surprised that they didn’t use any Eric Shultz footage to sell the joke, if not aware, Eric Schultz finished Filipino most of BTTF 1 before being recast by Micheal J fox, totally expected to see the real footage from the BTS and documentaries, but I guess Comcast wouldn’t play ball with WB
