    And it has the Real Batman
    Usually, I am not a fan of films that use time travel or multiple dimensions due to timeline changes, but this time it works and does so stupendously. Ezra Miller gave a great performance as Barry Allen and Barry Allen. I believe this is one of the best superhero films. Sasha Calle was excellent as Kara Zor-El. But for me seeing Michael Keaton as Batman took me back to 1989 and seeing the first Batman movie. I was 43 then and vacationing in Puerto Rico with my family. Batman mania was everywhere Kids were on the streets selling lanyards with the Batman logo. We saw the movie at the Carolina Movie Theater Complex.

    Then there was the brief scene watching the changing timeline with glimpses of George Reeves' Superman, Christopher Reeves' Superman, and Adam West's Batman plus a few others. I am sure for today's audience the nostalgia had no meaning.

    I just enjoyed this film from start to finish. And I would encourage those watching this on a streaming channel to watch the credits with the falling dog and then fast forward to the end of the credits for a great cameo from Jason Momoa.

    I've read some of the reviews and I believe they just don't get it. This is not Citizen Kane or The Godfather; this is just entertainment to be enjoyed with popcorn. Kick back and enjoy the ride. The CGI is fine, the story works out well for a timestream flic, there are good action scenes, and some great tongue-in-cheek humor, especially revolving around Batman. This is what a super hero movie should look like. Anyone remember the first Iron Man film before everything got lost in the Marvel Universe?

    What movie did you watch?
    The reviews and ratings can't be for the same film I watched. This is easily one of the worst films in the last decade. The acting is meh, the character they made the Flash is pathetic, the effects aren't up to video game cut scene quality. Frankly, the only worse film I have seen lately is... well, most of the rest of the DCU. This is just sad. The multiverse concept is not thought out, explained, or even coherent. The closest they come to a saving grace is Keaton, and he spends so much time as a poorly animated rag doll that even he can't help the film.

    Is this what movies have been reduced to? Is this the level of incoherent schlock we have to look forward to? And worse, have all of you lowered your taste to the point that this earns stars from you? Pathetic.
