The Flash
When his attempt to save his family inadvertently alters the future, Barry Allen becomes trapped in a reality in which General Zod has returned and there are no Super Heroes to turn to. In order to save the world that he is in and return to the future that he knows, Barry's only hope is to race for his life. But will making the ultimate sacrifice be enough to reset the universe?
Critics Sentiment
The Barrys find retired alternate Bruce Wayne at Wayne Manor
The Barrys repeatedly time travel but keep failing to save anyone
The film climbs from its lowest point during the repetitive time loop failures to strong emotional payoff when Barry accepts his mother's death and restores the timeline.
The Flash delivers a mixed but ultimately entertaining experience that peaks with Michael Keaton's beloved Batman return and strong emotional moments around Barry's relationship with his mother. While the film suffers from inconsistent CGI, repetitive middle sections, and over-reliance on multiverse concepts, it succeeds through solid performances, particularly from Keaton and Sasha Calle, and manages to stick the landing with a satisfying emotional resolution.
