The thing is, none of it makes a lot of sense. In 'The Flash,' the multiverse of possibilities that opens up by toying with the past becomes an excuse to throw everything but the Batcave sink at the audience. Despite the vividness of Ezra Miller, the movie steamrolls Miller’s personality as it goes along. - Variety

The early word on The Flash calling it one of the greatest superhero movies ever made was pure hyperbole. But in the bumpy recent history of the DC Extended Universe, it’s certainly an above-average entry. - The Hollywood Reporter

What it amounts to is a movie that spends all its time racing from one poorly-thought out story element to another, from one only modestly satisfying nostalgia shout-out to another, and with only questionable results. How fitting, yet how disappointing: 'The Flash' has the runs. - The Wrap

It has taken so long for a feature-length 'The Flash' to finally hit theaters, and he’s too late. Barry is barely the lead character of his own movie. [C] - The Playlist

What’s less persuasive is the CGI, an eyesore that’s particularly gaudy when the finale’s ‘secrets’ drop. The tone is similarly choppy, especially in a climactic punchline that clashes with the film’s emotive developments. With just Aquaman’s return incoming, the result is a movie that suggests this DCEU had promise, even if its directors couldn’t quite focus it. Time to pass the baton... [3/5] - Total Film

In its best moments, 'The Flash' touches on something new and exciting, but too often, its the past that tugs on, keeping it from speeding ahead. [B-] - IndieWire

[This] is not a movie with any new ideas or dramatic rethinking, and – at the risk of re-opening the DC/Marvel sectarian wound – nothing to compare with the much-lauded animation experiment in the recent Spider-Man films. The intellect in this intellectual property is draining away. [2/5] - The Guardian

The Flash ends on a purposefully open note (and a pretty good joke), so that if the film succeeds at the box office, Miller's Barry can run again another day. If it doesn't, the precedent is set for a full continuity reset. Whatever DC movies await us in the future, let's hope they avoid multiverses. It's well-trod territory at this point, even for a speedster. [C+] - Entertainment Weekly

While I have a few complaints and there are a couple of head-scratching loose ends, "The Flash" is still a funny, emotional, action-heavy crowd-pleaser that ranks among the best DC movies ever made. [7.5/10] - Slash Film

Whether or not this was all worth the long development saga and the troubles with its star will, of course, be for individual fans to decide, but there is undeniable entertainment value in The Flash. It’s sometimes buried under layers and layers of storytelling knots that the film never fully untangles, but the fun is there, and when the film is really working, that turns out to be enough. - The AV Club

The Flash may have an unwieldy third act and indulges in too much unearned fan service, but that doesn't stop it from being an entertaining and earnest DC superhero film. [7/10] - IGN

[If] a film can give you things that are exciting and heartfelt, all while you laugh and smile along, that’s hard to beat. And The Flash is definitely hard to beat in the conversation of the best DC movies of this era. - Gizmodo

[They] never consider that the time travel aspects make absolutely no sense, and only hurts the larger story in the way that it’s handled here. Thankfully, those antics are enjoyable and hard not to get excited about, but unfortunately, this isn’t a story that holds together on a narrative level. Cameos and fan service are fine to have, but the story has to be there to back them up, and it’s not quite there with The Flash. [C+] - Collider

Is this movie Shazam level dumpster fire? I will be there anyway but want to know your thoughts and thank you in advance.

Shazam was entertaining and was decent. As far as dumpster fire level is concerned, it's not as bad as L&T. Airbender takes the cake though as far as super powered beings are concerned when it comes to epic proportions bad.
 
shazam 1 was good, sequel not so much

review is up to 74 now with 609 reviews

not looking like the "best comic book movie ever" but its not looking like a disaster like shazam2 and black adam
 
DC should never be out-multi-versed given their history. It’s embarrassing.

And in my opinion Barry Allen was best as a martyr. Wally West was much more interesting character as he came into his own after CRISIS.
 


Would Be Nice For The Animated Universe To Stick To A Present Day Timeline But I'll Watch Either Way.
 
david corenswet has the look but i guess it will come down to who looks best in the superman suit
 
Honestly, casting choices for these iconic characters really don't matter to me.... We've seen too many times people that were panned and laughed at when they were cast and that delivering great performances... And people that we would be excited about deliver flats or poor performances based on the writing or direction. So it really doesn't matter who they pick. In my opinion, too many other factors play a role.
