Review of The Flash

The Flash (I) (2023)
1/10
They managed to destroy one of the best DC stories
18 July 2023
The Comic Book Flashpoint by Geoff Johns is one of the best DC Justice League comic books ever. It's those kind of books that you can't stop reading it, the characters, the story, the writing, the art, it's all extremely well done.

So when I heard they were doing a movie about it, I thought it would be very hard to not create a very decent film with all the material the book gave us. I was wrong.

I borrowed the Blu-ray from a friend and decided to watch it with a couple of friends. After 10 minutes, everybody in my room was just: "stop this, this is unwatchable".

Then I said: "Ok, wait, maybe it gets better when batman shows up, lets skip to that part". It didn't, it became more stupid.

So then again I said: "Ok, it definitely gonna get better when Superman shows up, trust me". It didn't... it got even worse.

We stopped watching it and just picked another movie instead.

I added some of the names of this movie to my blacklist so I avoid any more excruciating experiences like this one, in the future. The "writer" Christina Hodson is one of them, of course. My God...

The funny thing is that the DC Cartoon movies are still pretty good, for the most part. But they just can't make good live action movies... Especially when DiVeRsiTy is the main focus of the writers, instead of quality.

Anyway... Cheers.
