I want to smell dark matter
No, not the terrible tv show, the "actually looks good" movie starring a terrible person!
This is set in a multiverse. Zod is the villain. CGI/Deepfake technology has come a long way. ...Once the film is out someone needs to say the exact minute this scene happens so you arrive late and just join for the best bit.
I might wait a week or two to see it and see Across the Spiderverse this weekend.Bump for anyone who's seen it but can't find this thread.
They should have used TV Barry. Ezra Miller's Flash was worse than John Walker's Captain America.I watched this. It was okay. Better than Shazam 2. It has a lot of slapstick type stuff that you may or may not like (some of it worked, some didn't.) Ezra Miller did a decent job but having two of him together for much of the movie was a bit much (though I must of course praise how seamless it was.) The younger version got a bit annoying.
I think it suffers from the obsession to try to get a shared universe going. The Wonder Woman cameo at the start was even weirder than the one in Shazam 2. Michael Keaton did a good job but...if you're going to have an older Batman then maybe have him fight and move like an older Batman? He just moved as a super-fast CGI blur like everyone else and it made him feel like less of a character. Supergirl was hardly in it and I'm guessing they just shoved her in to set up a movie that will never happen. Was Michael Shannon de-aged or was it his face stretched on someone else's body or does he just look like that? I can't even tell anymore.
It works best when it focuses on Barry's story with his mom and the ending was fairly touching (well, not "George Clooney walking out of a Nespresso advert" ending.) If this was tv Barry the post credit scene would have been him going back in time to try to save his mother agian.
