The Flash Ratings & Reviews
- TomVader4 juli 2025Ironically a better Batman movie than most Batman movies, and I appreciate that this isn't yet another origin story.
- Zokkiie19 maart 2026Kinda messy, kinda fun. It’s got that chaotic energy where some parts really hit and others feel like they were rushed or stitched together last minute. The emotional stuff works better than expected, and there are a few genuinely nice character moments that land. The visuals are all over the place though—sometimes cool, sometimes straight-up distracting. Humor mostly works, but a few jokes feel forced. Also leans a bit too hard on nostalgia instead of fully standing on its own. Not perfect at all, but still a decent time if you don’t think too hard about
- Kain14 maart 2025not that bad! i think the ending was stupid especially after the leaks had a different actor. supergirl was pretty dope.
- Paul Schwartz31 maart 2025Kinda drawn out yet I did very much enjoy having Michael Keaton as batman
- ርልዪረ23 februari 2025A new Dc Comics movie. Having seen previous ones not least 'Batman Vs Superman' 'Aquaman' and 'Justice League' will help a lot, otherwise you might get a bit confused. This is a loose adaptation of a DC comics story from 2011 called 'Flashpoint.' In which the Flash - Barry Allen - tries to save his mother from being killed when he was a boy. But finds that tampering with time has consequences. He's stuck in the new timeline. Batman here looks a little different. Can he fix things and get back to his right time? I am a DC fan first and foremost, so I am a bit biased. Or maybe it means that I'm just prepared to give things a chance. Also to go to the cinema and enjoy myself. As a result, I loved this. One of the best live action superhero films I've seen. You know sometimes you see a film and you think they clearly got the script sorted first? This is one of those. Solid and it flows perfectly. It hits the ground running [no procession of production company logos]. Has a wonderfully paced opening sequence that tells you all you need to know. And whatever you think of Ezra Miller the person, Ezra Miller the actor is amazingly good here, showing someone who has been scarred by past trauma. Then playing a dual role and making both parts very distinct characters. It is a Flash movie first and foremost. With some Batman. Barry gets great emotional arcs and a heroes journey. It really considers what this new world would be like - one brilliantly funny scene - and an awful lot of it was clearly filmed live. I did think I recognised some of the locations. And I was right. There's not that much cgi apart from when he's running and only a little bit of back projection. Said cgi is actually quite good, and any bits the internet didn't like are actually blink and you'll miss it. Michael Keaton is superbly understated. It uses a certain bit of music to fabulous effect. It was also great to see a big battle scene where there was genuine jeopardy and it didn't feel as if anyone was safe. The whole film doesn't play out entirely as I expected it to. Which was a pleasant surprise. Sasha Calle also makes an impression as Supergirl. Would be nice to see more of her in the role. I also love getting to first performances of films, and discovering them for myself. That way you can avoid spoilers and be genuinely surprised. And this does that. Several times. Seriously avoid spoilers. Seriously. Thoroughly enjoyed this. Well worth a watch.
- Aaron15 februari 2026Roast Review – The Flash ⚡🔥 This movie proves one thing: Running fast doesn’t fix bad decisions — it just makes them happen quicker. Barry messes up the timeline like it’s a group chat he shouldn’t have touched, then spends the whole film going, “Wait… I can fix this,” and somehow making it worse every time. The multiverse turns into a cameo talent show, and Batman ends up being more memorable in The Flash’s own movie. That’s wild. And the CGI? Looked like the Speed Force ran out of budget. Verdict: Heart ✔️ Nostalgia ✔️ Timeline logic and graphics ❌ Still fun… but it felt like DC hit shuffle on reality 😄
- Manuel Frangis26 maart 2025I just watched The Flash and I honestly have to give it 0.5 out of 5 stars. I was really hoping this movie would be at least fun or have something cool to offer, but it ended up being one of the biggest disappointments I’ve seen in a long time. It’s messy, loud, all over the place, and just never clicked with me at all. I went in with low expectations, and somehow it still let me down. The biggest problem is the story, which is all over the place from the very beginning. It’s supposed to be a big multiverse, timeline-jumping adventure, but it never feels exciting or emotional. It’s more confusing than clever, and even when it tries to be serious or heartfelt, it falls flat. The pacing is weird too—some parts feel like they’re moving way too fast, and others drag on forever with nothing interesting happening. Ezra Miller plays Barry Allen aka The Flash, and I just couldn’t get into their performance. It’s awkward, forced, and kind of hard to watch at times. The jokes don’t land, the emotional moments feel fake, and even the action scenes don’t really help. The whole tone of the movie is off—like it’s not sure if it wants to be funny, dramatic, nostalgic, or just pure chaos. The visual effects in this movie are a huge mess, and not in a fun way. Some of the CGI looks completely unfinished. There are entire scenes where characters look like video game cutscenes from 15 years ago. For a movie that had a big budget and was supposed to be a major superhero event, that’s honestly embarrassing. It took me out of the story over and over again. There are a few cameos and surprises, and while I won’t spoil anything, even those felt cheap. They’re not earned, they don’t add much, and in some cases, they just felt like lazy attempts at getting fans to cheer. Nothing felt meaningful. It’s like the movie was trying to distract us with shiny objects instead of telling a good story. Some characters are just thrown in for no reason, and then they’re either barely used or completely wasted. The movie has so many chances to do something cool with its characters, and it just doesn’t. Even the big emotional arcs don’t land, because the writing never gives you a reason to care. You’re just expected to go along with whatever happens without feeling anything. The music and action sequences should’ve been highlights, but they felt just as thrown together as everything else. Some scenes had potential, but they never got the payoff they needed. It’s like the movie kept trying to build toward something epic and just never got there. I give The Flash 0.5 out of 5 stars because it barely gave me anything to enjoy. It had so much potential to be a cool multiverse story or a fun DC movie, but it ended up being a confusing, badly written, weird-looking mess that felt rushed and empty. Overall The Flash is a huge missed opportunity with weak performances, bad effects, and a story that never finds its footing. I really tried to find something to like, but this one just didn’t work for me at all. Definitely not a movie I’ll be revisiting.
- Giang Nguyễn1 februari 2026The worst flash.
- joepopp17 november 2025This movie fits right in with the recent DC Universe! ...because it's garbage.
- neuroparadox29 juli 2025"8 stars!" Screams Jon Peters as he starts cumming uncontrollably after edging for nearly 25 years. 🤣😂
- Kevin Ward2 juli 2025Some moments had me wanting to give this an instant 5 stars. Some moments felt purely to serve nostalgia and fan service. Those weren’t always mutually exclusive. Had a hell of a fun time though. Keaton has still got it. It was a bit of a rough start, if I’m being honest, but I THINK that’s because of some unpolished VFX. Once Keaton joins the fray, I was in for the ride.
- jackmeat5 februari 2026My quick rating - 6.5/10. Let’s just get this out of the way first, that CGI baby-in-the-microwave sequence looks rough. Like, “$220 million budget and still can’t beat the infamous dancing baby GIF” rough. It’s front and center, which isn't the confidence boost I wanted at the start of this long-awaited DC movie. Sadly, that moment ends up being a pretty accurate preview of The Flash as a whole. Occasionally fun, but wildly inconsistent. Directed by Andy Muschietti, The Flash makes a huge attempt at time travel and the multiverse, as Barry Allen tries to go back in time to save his family. Of course, this ruins reality, and the world becomes one where either there are no superheroes or they are very different. This is a great concept that provides a new spin on the superhero genre, although it didn’t quite go as I’m sure they had hoped. Michael Keaton’s return as Batman is, without a doubt, the highlight of this movie. He slips back into Bruce Wayne with ease, delivering a darker take on the character that brought a smile to my face. His chemistry with Ezra Miller’s Barry Allen is surprisingly effective, and their first meeting is easily one of the best scenes in the movie. Every time Keaton is on screen, the film feels more focused, more confident, and dare I say, more alive. That said, Miller remains a divisive choice as the Flash. For me, the performance still doesn’t have the charm and emotional accessibility that the character needs. The awkward humor doesn’t always work, and it’s hard not to think of how well Grant Gustin portrayed Barry Allen over the years on TV. Miller does have some moments, but they don’t quite work on the emotional level that the film is going for. Aesthetically, the movie is a mess. Some of the super-speed action is actually pretty thrilling and well-done, while other CGI-heavy moments look unfinished and ridiculously fake. When it does work, it really does work – and when it doesn’t, well, it doesn’t. Michael Shannon’s reprisal of General Zod is a welcome touch of nostalgia, although it feels more functional than fully explored. Sasha Calle’s Supergirl is a strong addition, delivering a solid performance, but it does raise questions about why the film didn’t use Melissa Benoist’s Supergirl character from the TV series (DC really doesn't get it when it comes to casting.) By the end, The Flash manages to pull itself back from being a complete disappointment thanks to Keaton’s Batman and a handful of genuinely thrilling action scenes. While it doesn’t fully justify the long wait or its massive budget, it does offer an interesting take on time manipulation and the multiverse - and maybe, just maybe, sets the stage for a more cohesive DC future under James Gunn.
- Jameslikesmovies25 juli 2025The only good thing in this movie is Micheal Keaton, the cgi was terrible in the beginning. I was very excited to see Michael Keaton as Batman back on the screen, but it did not turn out well.
- Recordedsnake24 januari 2026The Flash is a fast-paced, emotional superhero film filled with action, humor, and multiverse excitement. Ezra Miller delivers a strong performance, and Michael Keaton’s return as Batman adds a nostalgic highlight. With impressive visuals and a heartfelt story, it’s one of DC’s most entertaining movies.
- VooDue21 december 2025Cameos were fun, changing the races is GAF, but multiverse is the absolute worst. I refuse to watch anymore movies with the multiverse. It's lazy writing from a generation of writers who never had to truly work hard in life.
