- Has anyone else seen this? I wanted to, and I did last night. I must say, I thought it was horrible. Probably the worst was double Ezra Miller.

- I learned my lesson long ago and will not pay to see any DC movie.

- Even for free I would be very hesitant to see the new Flash movie. I haven't heard anything positive about the movie and Ezra Miller is apparently a very horrible human being to boot.

- I would agree. It is amazing how much money talks. Still releasing it after all his .

- I haven’t seen it, but I read that Michael Keaton’s Batman was the best part of the film.

- I watched on streaming this past weekend. I thought it had some moments that were good but Ezra Miller hammed it up for so much of the movie. The saving the babies scene was pure cringe to watch. Just bad. It's like they couldn't balance the comedy and serious aspects of the movie. Poor execution of a not bad idea. Keaton was without a doubt the best part of the movie.

- They should have just stuck with Grant Gustin, he did a great job.

- I agree. Grant Gustin was a great Flash. It's not his fault that the show got weaker with every season. The Flash was a must watch show when it started back in October 2014. I ended up quitting watching halfway through season 8 (of 9).

Yeah I think I may have not finished it either. It's streaming so when I am lacking in options I'll probably finish it but no rush. All of the DC shows started out strong and fizzled at some point I remember discussion on another Form when Flash had just Finished it's first season comparing Flash vs Arrow most said Flash was better, but I said let's compare S1 of Flash vs S1 of Arrow not S 1-3 or just 3. I'm somewhat amazed at how the writing got worse for some of these shows with so much content to write about over the decades.

It got to be repetitive, like they didn't want to use the rest of the Rogue's gallery so they kept recycling speed villains. Maybe they all went into the Legends of Tomorrow? And what was the daughter from the future, Nora? Just not a good actor IMHO. Gustin's acting did seem to get worse, but I also believe that's a case of poor writing, directing, etc, not bringing out the best in the character or actors.

- SPOILERS BELOW
It took two sittings for me to make it through this film. I almost didn’t finish watching it after about the first thirty minutes. Miller was highly annoying. The CGI babies falling out of the building looked like some kind of late 90s computer effects. And he puts one of the babies inside a microwave? Disgusting.
I held on and continued to watch, and the film did get a little better. I managed to finish watching it, anyway. It is true that Michael Keaton as Batman was the best part for me, but that’s because of nostalgia, I guess. Seeing the other actors portraying Superman (Christopher Reeve) and Nicolas Cage finally getting to fight the giant spider (remember the Kevin Smith story?) was fun…or at least made me chuckle.
But what was with the ending? George Clooney shows up as Bruce Wayne at the end. So Barry Allen was still in the wrong universe? We didn’t see him fix it. Then the post-credit scene with an inebriated Aquaman I guess somehow shows that Barry made it back to his timeline? Eh, okay.
I won’t be going back for seconds on this film. Once is enough for me.
