‘The Flash’ Review – One of Us

Does Barry’s solo movie live up to the hype? Find out in the One of Us crew’s The Flash review.

In what may or may not be the last gasps of DC’s Snyder-verse (it’s always too soon to call what Warner Brothers is gonna actually do until you see it happening in a movie theater), Ezra Miller returns as the Scarlet Speedster, the Flash.

This time around, he is sad, remembering his childhood and the random murder of his mother that was pinned on his father, even though Barry is certain his dad is innocent. Accidentally discovering extreme speeds can let him travel through time; he makes his way to that fatal day and prevents his mother from ever dying.

Unfortunately for Barry, when he tries to come back, an alternate speedster also in the ‘time-force’ knocks him out into an alternate 2013, created by his change. Now he must deal with his younger self (who hasn’t yet gotten his powers but surprise: this is the day it WOULD have happened if he had entered the police department), and find Superman, who doesn’t seem to have surfaced in this version of the world, but somebody better step up because General Zod is wreaking havoc.

 

The Flash Review

Chris, Editor Mike, and Wright get on the cosmic treadmill to decide whether this is one of the most fun DC efforts in years, or a lazy nostalgia-chewing throwback with CG from 25 years ago.
