[PROS]
As a DC comics fan, I honestly loved the story of the flash and it genuinely struck emotion into me. I admired the characters personal growth throughout the movie, starting as the immature flash to a more sophisticated and selfless hero.
I originally had low expectations for the “twinning actors” cliché (think of Despicable Me 3, or more recently the Glass Onion), but I was surprised to see it used well in a way that highlighted Barry’s character development (and a sneaky reveal of the villain).
Also the Movies use of the trend of *bringing back nostalgic characters* was actually done well with Batman (especially compared with Disneys Star Wars use of nostalgia)
[CONS]
You already know it…
The CGI wasn’t the best. At times it did hinder my enjoyment of the film, and I had to put effort into keeping my focus on the story. I believe if they had made the CGI better (ESPECIALLY THE WEIRD SLOW-SPEEDFORCE RUN) it would’ve been a better experience.
I recommend this movie to people who know and like DC comics, are aware of the flash and the flashpoint story. Otherwise I could maybe see unknowing audiences a bit confused.
Thanks!
