Review of The Flash (2023) by Zquaranteneuf — 18 Jul 2023
The actual definition of DC mediocrity, in line with Justice League, Suicide Squad, and BvS. Everything is there: dumb reheated yet convoluted storyline, inconsistent annoying characters, cringe attempts at humor, plot holes, atrocious CGI (quality and quantity), pathetic pandering with fan service, pop culture references and soundtrack, etc. Every bad thing about the DCEU is cranked to 11 here. Plus, the cinematography has never been worse. It REALLY doesn't take long before you can't stand seeing The Flash's dumb face in wide angle anymore.
I literally LOL'd in the first 3 mins at how bad it was, and the first 10-15 mins make for some of the stupidest things ever put in a movie. Extremely bad as a whole, but it kept me entertained - just not in the way they intended it. So much ridiculous and bad looking stuff going on, I couldn't help but keep laughing the whole time.
Ezra Miller (and his character Barry) is abrasive and genuinely seems like the worst possibly person to be around. T'was nice seeing Michael Keaton in the batsuit again, but an actor of that caliber has no place in such a trainwreck.. I hope he got a good paycheck.
Do not EVER pay to see this movie; pirate it and get drunk and you'll have a good time.
There is zero doubt in my mind that you have to be low IQ to give a sincere good score to such garbage. Made by childish simpletons, for childish simpletons. Funko pop movie making.
