Erik Davisof fandango It is Rotten Tomatoes, cited “Inventive storytelling, FANTASTIC action sequences, great cast. SO MANY nerdy details. I was in tears by the end. Everything you want from a superhero movie and more.” Already Umberto Gonzalezof The Wrap It is heroic hollywoodcompared with other films from the A.D:
BELIEVE THE HYPE! movies from Christopher Nolan apart, The Flash It’s the greatest movie ever A.D the last 30 years that belongs to the same conversation as Superman – The Movie (1978) and batman (1989). The film breaks incredible new ground in superhero cinema and pays homage to DC lore from years past.
DC’s #TheFlash is TREMENDOUS! Forget DC, it is without a doubt among the best superhero films ever made. An all-timer. Inventive storytelling, FANTASTIC action sequences, great cast. SO MANY nerdy details. I’m in tears at the end. Everything you want from a superhero film & more pic.twitter.com/xYSn0zuXMm

In counterpoint, Andrew J. Salazarof DiscussingFilmcommented on some defects of the film: “The Flash manages to deliver high glorious emotions. Andy Muschietti captures what many of us have always dreamed of for a cinematic history of the Flash. But there are also a lot of *bizarre* decisions. Some story related and some technical. It’s not amazing, but it’s still great sometimes.”
This isn’t one of the best superhero movies in history, nor is it a total dumpster fire, which it easily could have been! My prediction: the general public will like this. Longtime fans of A.D they also leave very happy. It is tailored for that experience.
This is neither one of the best superhero movies of our time nor a total dumpster fire, which it easily could have been!
My prediction: general audiences are totally going to enjoy this. Long time DC fans are going to walk away very happy too. It’s tailored for that experience.

Also with some negative reviews, Brandon Davis explained how “even though I have criticisms at times, the beginning and end are really strong. A few things along the way didn’t quite work out, but overall, it gave me a lot to enjoy.” He praised the aesthetics and concept of The Flashas well as the dynamics of the two Barry Allen.
The emotions hit me hard, solid surprises, and it made me want to watch it again and really look forward to seeing how they would go on. Good job.
Damn, #TheFlash is good! It’s super inventive both visually and in concept. The dynamic of two Barry Allen’s is crazy well done.
Emotions hit me intensely hard, solid surprises, and it got me wanting to watch again and really eager to see how they follow it. Well done. pic.twitter.com/7QqiHVNAJy

With two interesting comparisons, Germain Lussier also spared no praise. “Yes. The Flash it’s as good as the rumors said. AND Back to the future find Spider-Man: Never Go Home with all the humor and emotion of the former and action and surprises of the latter. It might actually be a little too ambitious, but it’s also incredibly satisfying, exciting and fun,” he opined.
Yup. #TheFlash is as good as rumored. It’s Back to the Future meets Spider-Man: No Way Home with all the humor & heart of the former and action and surprises of the latter. If anything, it might be a tad too ambitious but it’s also just incredibly satisfying, heartwarming & fun. pic.twitter.com/Yysb9mjiAm

The Flash it’s fantastic. I know that Ezra Miller he made a lot of mistakes, but he is soooo good in this movie. I loved keatonaction, humor and emotion. Andy Muschietti created something special. Thumbs up.
I just watched The Flash at CinemaCon. It has some things you won’t believe and it shows a lot more of the powers of Barry Allen. It is indeed one of the best A.D and fits perfectly as a bridge between the old and new franchises of the DCEU. It’s also the funniest movie ever. A.D.
Yes, The Flash it’s great! It delivers some remarkably moving, fun, and creative moments that I felt I hadn’t seen in a million other superhero movies. He made me smile from the logo of Warner Bros. at first and I even liked things inspired by movies I didn’t like.
