‘The Flash’ Early Reactions Call It the Best Superhero Movie?

Early reactions for The Flash have recently been coming out after its showing at Cinemacon today. The attendees of the event not only got a look at what’s on the way from Warner Bros but also a cut of The Flash movie. Ezra Miller was not present today and its definitely hard to talk about The Flash and not bring up the controversy behind the star. We have discussed this before, so won’t be breaking that down here but lets go down some of the reactions to the film below.

Caught an unfinished cut of #TheFlash and dug it quite a bit! Especially how the narrative challenges Barry to confront who he is, who he could have become, and how one’s influenced by the people in (or not in) their life.

It’s a successful mix of heartfelt coming-of-age… pic.twitter.com/CB7mTDEZXC

The Flash is hands down one of the best superhero films of all time. No joke, The Flash is the ultimate movie going experience as it has a little bit of everything! Action, emotion, heart, humor and plenty of nostalgia. Ezra Miller is phenomenal as dual Barry Allens. Michael… pic.twitter.com/F7SHA30vZM

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

The reactions for the most part are pretty positive, but there are also ones that point out it’s not perfect.

#TheFlash manages to deliver glorious high thrills. Andy Muschietti captures what many of us have always dreamed for a cinematic Flash story.

But there's also plenty of just *bizarre* decisions. Some story related and others technical. Not amazing but still pretty good at times. pic.twitter.com/SjO27VtH1O

THE FLASH: First hr is pretty fantastic. Strikes the perfect tone. Ezra is great. Heroic. Funny. Emotional. The last hr is MOSTLY terrible. Just an utter mess that’ll leave you asking, “what the HELL is going on?” Fan service & DC villain problem strike again. Mixed bag overall.
