I've seen screen savers with more depth and fewer unnecessary lens flares than The Flash.

The Flash: proof the studio reads its own marketing too literally.

@LATE_SHOW_LURKER2026-01-25 10:00 UTC

The Flash has the emotional range of a fridge magnet.

Even the popcorn looked bored during The Flash.

Hot Take: The Flash's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece

Everyone praising the The Flash performances must have watched a different cut. The lead is sleepwalking through this and the supporting cast can't save it.

[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in The Flash?

Just got out of The Flash and I'm convinced critics are being paid in residuals. Two genuinely good scenes do not make a film. Convince me otherwise.

Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in The Flash actually is?

Honestly, The Flash would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.

The cinematography in The Flash is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows

Look, I wanted to love The Flash. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.
