I actually loved that they couldn't beat Zod... canonically Superman was only able to beat Zod because he spent enough time on earth to perfect the use of his powers. Zor had superior numbers and tech, but they were disadvantaged due to their presence in such an "alien" environment. I've seen the director say that the images Barry see's wasn't supposed to be "real" but a projection of things from his mind...but it doesn't excuse things like the babies and the weird CGI faces at times. Storywise I liked it and had a good time. Not perfect, but a great time nonetheless.

Emotional core of the movie was written really well,it was nice to see Miechael Keaton as Batman again and Sasha Calle as Supergirl was really cool.I don't even mind the CGI not being too good :)

Loved the movie, don't get why people are being weirdly critical, i acknowledge the problems but still very enjoyable.

That chase scene at the beginning made me hopeful of Andy Muschietti's Batman movie! He handles well a more comic book Batman instead of going for a realistic one.

I absolutely love the music in this film. Works perfectly.

I honestly feel like that wasn’t George Clooney playing Bruce Wayne I think it was just him as himself that just wandered on set! Easiest pay check ever

This movie was 60% done right for me. 20% should've been better CGI, the other 20% should've been a more uncomplicated Multiverse and tieing things up nicely for the new DCU reset. I enjoyed Flash's core story and all the Micheal Keaton Batman stuff. Makes me excited for Brave&theBold. 🖤

when i went to see this, i was literally the only person in the theater and it had only been out a week, it was nice though for when i would yell out OH MY GOD WHAT IS UP WITH THOSE BABIES!? but the end i wept like a baby when he was talking to his mom in the store, it got me thinking of my dad and how i would have done anything just to get to see him again, thank god for sunglasses when i was walking out of the theater lol

I'm glad seeing Nic Cage's superman here. Batman fight scene in this is greater than others. Hate seeing Supergirl got killed but I understand that super kryptonians can only been killed by their krytopon steel or blade. And funny seeing Barry's real running without his power haha.

The cgi was not that good yes, but it didnt bother me that much as i got more invested into the story. But i loved it. That scene where Barry realizes he has to let go and is in that store made me bawl my eyes out. It hits me in the heart cause my own mother died to Breast Cancer earlier this year and i miss her very much.

I’m sorry but the music was awesome. From the start to the end. I did want more of the original theme from the first teaser but I liked the music a lot.

Despite all the Ezra BAD BEHAVIOR and CRIMES. This movie is REALLY ENTERTAINING 😁. I really enjoyed this movie, and Ezra played the smart nerdy with a dry sense of humor Barry Allen really well (And he is not exagerated his acting). I give 8.5 / 10 .

That was Nicolas Cage! The director confirmed he was on set filming.

Ngl the movie had it's flaws but it was still very enjoyable the CGI was meh other than that it was very enjoyable and I really appreciate and enjoyed your reaction to this movie. Thanks you two ❤

I finally got to see this a couple of days ago and I enjoyed it. The story was well written and to see the return of Michael Keaton's "Batman" was a big highlight for me.

"Hot Tub Time Machine, Time Cop, A Wrinkle in Time!" "Die Hard! No, wait, that's not right."

This movie was fine, I enjoyed it. I grew up on Kenton’s Batman, I got to see him again as Batman so that was enough for me

46:45 *Priceless!* Also, appreciate the Doctor Who discussion. Specifically "Waters Of Mars". So hyped for the November specials!

10:32 While most of the film’s CGI is more indefensible, the Chrono-Bowl WAS purposefully meant to look weirder. Muschietti said he wanted it to look watery, like it was being distorted via Barry’s perception of time in the Speed Force

The reason for the nikolaj castau waldeau (jamie Lannister) cameo is because he acted in Andy muscietti's first movie mama alongside Jessica Chastain.

Fair review. I really liked the film because of the way it brought the entire DCEU, and some other DC properties, together for a final goodbye while telling a fairly grounded, emotional story for Barry Allen. The directing was very creative and the acting fantastic. It's got the fan service while never loosing track of the heart of the story. The humor was overdone in some spots, but I liked the awkwardness and willingness to go all out in the portrayal of Barry's overwhelming lifestyle, be it through his inner chaos or his demanding physical condition. I also loved how the movie linked Keaton's Batman with Affleck's through some clever visual cues and the way they related to Barry's torment and loneliness. Both of their individual action sequences were fantastic. I totally buy Sasha Calle as Henry Cavill's cousin as well. Only real gripes I had with it were some of the CGI choices, the needle drops and the writing at key spots. I felt like there was missing context for both Keaton and Supergirl. I wanted the film to flesh out their corners in this new alternate universe more so that their deaths hit harder. The film also retcons some of its own multiversal rules to fit the thematic play and extra bits of fan service, which made the movie feel slightly disingenuous. 7/10 for me. Really liked the character work, and the story had the entertainment value, emotional beats and the relevant themes I expected. It just needed further polishing.

The movie was great and Ezra did an excellent job playing two Barrys.

in the scene of the babies the cgi was done in a way that the babies do not look like real babies so that the psychological impact is less on sensitive viewers

"Or, like, run to the ambulance...?" I never noticed that and now I'm dying 😂

Glad to get to watch with you on this one!

The scream I screamed when George Clooney showed up, I was not at all prepared, honestly 🤣 I called my brother over and he had no reaction, so I had to yell bat credit card at him 😅 There were a couple of jokes that I really laughed at and I teared up when he was talking to his mom in the supermarket, but overall I didn't really care about the movie. I was hyped for Michael Keaton being back, but then they killed him twice, so it was barely worth it for the rest of this. The CW shows definitely did Dark flash much better, it was actually creepy and intimidating.

I like when people try to criticize a Flash movie for disobeying the laws of physics. I mean...

I LOVED Sasha Calle’s Supergirl. Easily a standout for me in this movie.

The sad thing about this movie is I actually find Miller’s performance(s) and Barry’s arc as a character genuinely compelling. It’s just buried and neutered by incredibly questionable story decisions, an unfocused plot, and some of the worst CG I’ve ever seen in major blockbuster.

I honestly really liked this movie besides the CGI. Everything else was pretty good and emotional. Also they did get Nic Cage for his Superman cameo. He filmed on set.

I have a fun game. Find someone who hasn't seen this movie and tell them "ezra miller stole some beers, caused a massive accident in the middle of the street, put a baby in a microwave and appeared naked in a woman's apartment" and they have to guess if you're talking about the movie or the news.

Barry #2 honestly had the best character development in the movie. Happy go-lucky, carefree teen realistically turned into a villain. Kind of what I wish they did with Savitar in the CW show.

The CGI was meant to look weird in the Chronobowl. And also, Nic Cage DID go on set to film his cameo, but because of how they wanted to portray the Chronobowl, they used CGI as well.

Hope your doing alright now man we’ll always support you guys! & I found this film fun it wasn’t perfect other than the CGI I liked seeing older Barry and young Barry interact, Bruce & Barry in the beginning with Wonder Woman was cool & I always forget that Bruce and Barry both lost there parents at a young age they should be friends more so I think it’s just interesting . Micheal Keaton was amazing & supergirl kicked ass I loved how at the end everything came full circle granted I’ve seen flashpoint in numerous things and this was a cool interpretation of it compared to the animated film. & Erik Stoltz was actully gonna be Marty before Micheal J Fox he auditioned

12:43 Yep. That's the reaction.

Supergirl and Michael keaton batman steal the show

Hey it’s nice to see you guys again, i loved seeing The Flash in theatres i had a really great time watching the movie, i didn’t know it was available on digital now so i might have to watch it again, i really loved the movie but i don’t know why people are hating on it so much but hey i still really enjoyed it.

I laughed too hard at Barry turning around with the mask on wrong. Cause anyone who's worn that rubber batman mask knows what a pain in the ass it is to put it on lol.

31:45 there’s a behind the scenes feature that says that Michael Keaton had his son and his grandson on set. He said when he first did Batman his son was four seeing his dad in the suit. Now his grandson is four seeing grandpa in the batsuit. Another thing when they showed him what the scene was going to be on an iPad he jumped on the counter to watch it and Ezra’s double offered to help him down and he just jumped down. So yeah Keaton loved coming back. They also almost didn’t do this movie if they couldn’t sign Keaton on. 44:00 Nicolas Cage is credited as being in this movie so he would be paid depending on the contract. 54:18 an interesting fact about Michael Shannon he wasn’t going to reprise his role after Snyders exit from the film but Snyder gave him his blessings to do the movie. Also Michael Keaton’s performance as Batman in this makes him the oldest person to play Batman in live action at age 71. I believe Adam West holds the record in the animated series at 88.

Loved your reaction when you saw Clooney at the end 😂 but apparently it was supposed to be Keaton instead of Clooney as there are shots of Keaton dressed as Bruce Wayne in this scene, so not sure what changed and why 🤷‍♂️

I saw this movie in the theater a couple of times I really liked it It had a lot more good than bad. Just having Michael Keaton back as Batman and that man didn't change a beat he looked perfect The two twin Ezra effects were great this was a four out of five star for me

I really liked this movie. It was a bit rushed but overall I found a good Flash movie. I hate to say it but Ezra does well in the role.

I did love Clooney at the end

The way I took the post credit scene is to explain the new heros and their new looks besides Aquaman changing. Barry literally says it

Mark 11:23. In the "CBS" series when lightning wasn't used, Barry created a whirlwind in his home when he tried to clean up! Iris said that it looked like a small tornado had been there! 😅 As for me, I apologize for the mess as it isn't my fault that someone arrives without warning even after I said don't visit unless you're willing to help clean. 😮

George Clooney showing up at the end was quite a curveball! The audience and I got a lot of laughs!

PS: The "Atlas of the DC Universe", places New York City, NY, Gotham City, NJ and Metropolis, Delaware, within visual range of each other, by the way. Unless it isn't Delaware but Connecticut? They share the waterways!

My nephew told me the CGI for this was atrocious but holy hell he didn't do it justice...

To me, the interpretation of the post credit scene is, in real life, there's several batman and superman, so the recast is coming, but Jason is gonna still be "The Aquaman" that's why Barry said at the end: "yeah, he's fine" meaning he's not gonna be replaced. But, we'll see!

I love the surprise with George Clooney at the end. I was really not expecting that.

Mark 43:32. Since I love Helen Slater's "Supergirl" movie, this is my "Supergirl" moment that I was waiting for! Gal Gadot is a bonus! ❤ The new "Supergirl" resembles these Barrys too much for me. But I finally got to see the actress as herself, as I paused your video to ask "Google" about her. As herself she's cute! I also saw a headline for an interview that admits that she was going for the androgynous look in this movie. 😳 😊

24:15 - Would screwing timelines changes a person's age ? This Barry's 18. Bruce is even older than Ben Affleck. By the time this Barry reaches our Barry's age, Michael Keaton's Bruce is even wayyyy more older than our timeline Ben Affleck's Bruce. Barry did not just change a different Batman, he changed their age.

Mark 32:22. Have you ever noticed how rarely anyone says, "I'm not an Earthling!"? More often than not they say "Human", and that begs the question of what do they call themselves on their respective native planets? 🤔 In "The Elder Scrolls" universe, Planet Nirn has several sentient species. I don't recall anyone referring to each other or to himself or herself as being a "Nirnian" or a "Nirner", et cetera. 🤔 But here on Planet Earth, we have several monikers for ourselves. But when we create fictional races, we tend to give them a single moniker. Exceptions would be, "Vulcan" and "Vulcanoid". "Time Lord/Lady" and "Gallifreyan". "White Martian" and "Green Martian". 🤔

I love that the movie it’s Barry Allen centric, the multiverse/alternate timeline it’s just part of the fun. I thought it was ok the first time I watch it but it really plays much better in the second viewing.

“They Shoulda Just Got Nick Cage For This” They DID, And It Still Came Out Like That

Seeing George Clooney return as Bruce Wayne surprised the hell out of me, I wasn’t expecting that cameo. However, that was not the original ending that was gonna be in the movie. The original ending that was suppose to be in the movie, and I hope it gets released online, the original ending had Michael Keaton’s Bruce Wayne character standing side by side with Supergirl, Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot), and Superman (Henry Cavill). Unfortunately, I believe a report came out saying that James Gunn had them change the ending to the George Clooney cameo ending.

Kevin Smith with Nick Cage must of felt good on that part haha.

I gave it 6/10 Keaton hasn’t miss a beat loved Sasha’s supergirl I happy for her after the crap the fans give her . Great to see you back Rob and Vanessa.

PS: About those babies! Oh yeah! They looked good enough to me! Others have mentioned "Ally McBeal" and you mentioned those commercials. But now that you mention it, I'm reminded of something else, too! "The SIMS" games! It never happened during my games, but I've seen thumbnails of videos in which tired parents I'm guessing, or a glitch, had infants placed on outdoor grills! Ovens, too? Something that cooks. But never was food placed in cribs. If I recall right, the title was something like "Cannibalism in The SIMS?" 😁

I from Venezuela and in latin america that lyrics is very famous 🎵 La vida te da sorpresa sorpresa te da la vida ay dios 🎵 that song is a classic is called Pedro Navaja performed by Rubén Blades. Thank you guys for reacting The Flash👍👍👍👍

That was exactly my reaction at the beginning of the movie, "WTF was that".

this part when barry gets his powers back were in the comic book ,,,he goes back in time , but bruce and his mother dies and thomas wayne his father helps barry get his powers back in the same way with lightning

The VFX in those speedforces scenes wasn't acceptable for me, but other than that. This film had a very strong story about Barry coming to terms with trying to change the what is inevitable in life. The younger Barry Allen allowed for the audience to see how much Barry has matured as a member of the Justice League which I enjoyed very much. Anyone who says, "this isn't a Flash movie" actually didn't pay attention when watching. The ending when he says goodbye to his mom after coming this far had me in tears.

Idc i loved this movie and the CGI didnt bother me at all.

The director did say alot of the cgi choices were intentional, trying to show Barry’s pov in the speed force. Probably wasn’t the best idea in the end, but Atleast it was a creative choice

Mark 3:49. Howdy and welcome back! 🤠✨️🎉🎊🙏 Hey! One of my favorite visuals! Those road signs confirming that Gotham City and Gotham County, are two different jurisdictions that share a name! (Like "Town of Mayberry" and "Mayberry County" and both are county seats. Oklahoma City doesn't give Oklahoma County much choice because you enter the city limits before you cross the county line!) But do you notice that it doesn't show the name of the state? On car license plates/tags the state name is prominent. Going back to the 1966 "Batman" series it gives the impression that "Gotham" is a state name! Other live-action series and movies do so too. At least with the series "Gotham" it would eventually make since when the USA separated itself from Gotham County to quarantine it!

I really enjoyed the CGI of memories of barry. Looks like a bunch of collage images.

That was a take on Savitar, derived from a take on Savitar, derived on a take on "Future Flash", but took the name from Savitar. I love the take Savitar, but I originally thought it was a take on the Reverse Flash that looked like Carnage mixed with AntiVenom mixed with Reverse Flash. (Edit): I just realized that Albert might be a nod to Julian Albert from CW's The Flash. He was introduced in the same season, and even participated in some key moments. He was also played by the same actor who played Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter movies.

All the 80s movies references were actually almost castings for those movies. Stoltz actually filmed a large chunk of the movie before being recast.

Honestly first of all, I actually liked the music choice for the opening scene but it might’ve been the only thing I liked about the scene, especially with the PS2 looking babies! But with Flash being my favorite hero, it almost lost me until like the last 30ish minutes 😂 I did love all the call backs to the comics and animated series but I was still questioning a lot of the films direction but they kind of made up with it at the last 30ish minutes😅

31:14 I believe she's referring to Martial Law's move in Tekken 7 😅👍🤟

My personal minitheory/headcanon on why Barry runs so stupidly/weirdly is that he purposely runs in a strange way so that he can still run at a normal speed. Like if Barry runs normally when using super speed then he might accidentally use his speed when he just wants to run normally at a normal speed. By only using speed when he’s running in a weird way he basically makes a separation in his mind that running normally = regular human speed and running weirdly = super speed

My favorite DCEU movies are Wonder Woman, Aquaman, BVS Dawn Of Justice, “The” Suicide Squad, Shazam! Fury Of The Gods & The Flash. But I have a few problems with BVS but I think it’s an entertaining watch

It’s takes courage to edit a movie like this 😂 props to y’all and the reaction

Mark 10:04. Hmm. Maybe the telephone was out of order then? Or he couldn't get to it? 🤔 I didn't try to get by Grandpa & Grandma to use the telephone at home, when she asked for help. As it was, since I was already riding my tricycle, I rode it to the neighboring house to ask for help from there. I wasn't in a comedy skit where you beg the pardon of the angry man so that can get by him to use the telephone to turn him in to the authorities and he allows you to do so, because he's not just angry, he's also polite. 😉

I wonder if the term 'microwaving the baby ' will catch on alongside 'nuking the fridge?' Bizarrely your reactions are better than the film! Mr. Rob's eyes at the Clooney reveal is priceless lol. Well Done, guys.

Mark 8:27. Hmm. Is she not wearing her usual metal armor battleskirt this time, but a fabric one instead? 🤔

There’s actually a whole bunch of alternative endings that were cut out of the final version of the film.

So, I saw this in the theaters and I thought it was okay. Having said that, I was chuckling at your incredulous expressions to the entire opening with the babies. Also, as I rewatch this through this reaction, I'm wondering why at the end, whenever the Flashes repeatedly went back in time to try different tactics against the Kryptonians, it didn't result in FOUR Flashes when they rejoined the action. (And then six Flashes, etc.) I mean, we know that's how time travel works in this universe because that's how we got two Barrys in the first place.

Mark 8:43. Huh? No! He was defending himself! That's realistic for an Involuntary Celebate and a Dork alike! ("Dork" is to males as "Virgin" is to females.) He may be a fictional movie character to you, but he isn't to himself. He may share colors with "Deadpool", but he isn't that character! So it isn't about some imaginary "Statute of Humor Limitations"! 😁

*The Flash* Big Bads Ranked 1. Reverse-Flash 2. Zoom 3. Bloodwork 4. Thinker 5. Savitar 6. Eddie Thawne/Malcolm Gilmore/Cobalt Blue 7. Doctor Alchemy 8. Deathstorm 9. Despero 10. Negative Speed Force 11. Negative Still Force 12. Dark Flash (DCEU) 13. Mirror Monarch 14. Orlin Dwyer/Cicada 15. Grace Gibbons/Cicada 16. Red Death 17. Godspeed 18. Speed Force

I think that just for the cameos this movie can be understood just to those who are born in 80 and 90 s

You know The actor in this movie timuera Morrison from New Zealand his wife is my sisters best friend we lived in the Same suburb as him he had a mansion we went to a city called koutu in NZ where I grew up you can look it up he wasn’t there I think he was out filming movies but I met his wife I was like 7 at the time tho haha

I genuinely love the Zaslav remarks at the beginning. It reminds me of the recent Dan Murrell review of "Barbie" where he offhandedly throws shade at Zaslav's salary.

Mark 9:00. But she's right! He's like a race car that needs to refuel often! Also, that barrista doesn't know what has happened! Continuity needs to be maintained! 😁

6:04 the appropriate reaction

Nicolas Cage was brought in and scanned his body. He was payed for Superman lives and he came in for his cameo.

1.3K Thumbs Up + Mine! 👍 You're welcome! Thanks! 😊 Notes: The two actors with surnames that people conflate that both played a "Superman" are both dead and both appear in this movie. But I've seen fewer freak-out complaints about George than Christopher. By the way, why use stock black-and-white footage when he also made color episodes? George, that is. The "Flash" with the Hermes/Mercury/"FTD" helmet is the one that died in "Stargirl" before the series began. Hey! I witnessed your laughter! I witnessed some sadness too. But you steel said what you said at the end?! Hmm. I enjoyed both live-action versions of "The Justice League" movie! I'ved enjoyed everyone of their recent "DCEU" movies! None were mediocre to me! I enjoyed the music used too! "Favorite one"? Oh, I have yet to see "Wonder Woman 1984"! I missed out when it was in mivie theaters. I have two different DVD versions of it with no way to play them. I'm not sure anymore if I got to see Zack Snyder's cut of "Justice League" or that I just saw so many reactions to it that it feels like I saw it too. 🤔 But of the ones that I have seen for sure? If I ignore female sex appeal/eye candy, the choice is about the same for me. A tie. If I include the females? The ones that appeal to me are in my fantasy harem though. So another tie. ❤ Animals? The "League of Super Pets" doesn't count, right? If it does count, then it is my favorite! Gadgets? Another tie! All of the stories are recycled, so it is more about the presentation. Tie. Hmm. The politics behind the scenes annoy me. 🙄 I don't like what Hitler did, but I still enjoy a good WW2 movie. But some people that suffered back then can't even though we know who wins before we see the movie. Just like the smarter of us knew that the RMS Titanic sinks, before we saw that movie. Spoilers? If I could afford a car collection like Jay Leno's, I would have one too! But I can't so I don't. But if I had the money, I would buy a "Ford Mustang" or another dream car, regardless of a new model coming soon! 🤔 So I don't get why some people ignore what is currently happening just because of some hypothetical future that has yet to prove itself. 🤔 I'm not one of those people that ignore being hungry now and won't eat anything just because they willl ne hungry later and they might like the food more then! I won't refuse $10.00 now just because I'm getting a $100.00 bill later! So I saw the current movies that I had the cash to see and I missed out on those when the timing wasn't right and I was too broke to see them. 🙃 I'm not a total orphan like Bruce Wayne. I'm semi-orphaned like Barry Allen. I can relate to that loss though I was 4 and Barry was older. Sure, I'd like my life to be much better than it is. 😌

I don't care what Ezra did i wanted to watch the flash movie and did it, i loved it and his performance was amazing. Now do i like Ezra as a person? Absolutely not, do i think that what he did was right? Absolutely not! But his performance was amazing i separated actor from the character and enjoyed it. Ben Affleck was amazing so was Keaton and Sasha Calle

Despite the CGI being very odd looking, this movie wasn't all that bad. I watched it with family and everyone loved it. Now it feels like everyone hating was just hating on one thing, the CGI.

A Wiki said it's Earth-89 Batman in this movie. Batman from the Burtonverse is Earth-789 Batman said another wiki site. DC made it canon in Donner's Superman universe.

Mark 13:14. Isn't "Zoom" Tim Allen's character in his movie? 🤔

Before the movie released, in a interview James Gunn, with a straight face, looked right at the host and said this was one of the greatest superhero movies created. C'mon... not even close. Either he lied or he.... um, well... lied.

People forget that we were seeing this film through Barry’s eyes as well as The Flash in almost all iterations is the less serious character of the justice league and works as a comedic relief just like in the animated series. The CGI wasn’t the best but it wasn’t the best on purpose. I feel like some people are just nitpicking at everything with this movie which wasn’t that bad.

The Flash is pretty much the end of an era. So long ( DCEU), it wasn't all bad, yes therehere were some downs but there were some ups too. But its time to move forward. Hello DCU, lets see whst you got.

Nicholas Cage actually was there but they over cgi-ed so much of the cameos that you couldn’t tell what was real & what wasn’t. Same Teddy Spears in his scene in this film who played the fake Jay Garrick in this film in the cameos scene. He said he actually was there but it was cgi-ed so much around him that you couldn’t even tell he actually shit the scene. It’s strange they used him as fake Jay Garrick though cause in the cw’s flash show his fake Jay Garrick was revealed to actually be Zoom/Black Flash. So I find it kinda odd that he was Jay Garrick in this since he wasn’t actually him in the show

Thanks for the video!! See you later!! Stay safe.😊

I’m actually suprised, it’s not as bad as the critics said it would be but also not as great ethier so there’s that

Surprise! Surprise! Nicolas Cage was actually on set, the rest of the suit was CGI 😂
