The Flash movie’s official trailer dropped during the 57th NFL Super Bowl game and not even Ezra Miller can kill it.
It is common knowledge Ezra Miller is not necessarily the best human being out there. I like nothing about him, not because of the many altercations he’s had with people in public, or the cases he’s been charged with (of course, those play a part) but because I personally feel he might be the worst Flash casting of all time.
He looks nothing like the Flash in the comics, absolutely nothing. He doesn’t have the face of the Flash, the body of the Flash, or the finesse of the Flash. He’s just some guy that was cast to play the role. As a matter of fact, Grant Gustin’s Flash from The CW’s The Flash series is a much better fit (of course, we can get someone much better) than Ezra Miller. I quite enjoy The Flash series, and it is mostly because of Grant and his performance.
Let’s leave that. I was actually shocked by how good the movie looks. From little details like the lightning trail behind him to the blue and grey suit on Ben Affleck, and all the way down to Michael Keaton’s Batman – he’s still got it – swing down and take out some bad guy’s in classic Batman style. I don’t think Ezra Miller’s terrible reputation can mess this one up. We get to see one of the most popular stories and vital points in Barry Allen’s life, which most comic book readers are familiar with. Flashpoint. Here, Barry tries to go back in time to save his mother but in the process alters the timeline. He creates one where there is no Superman, among other things. He appears to meet a Barry Allen that looks like himself. Possibly from another timeline. And we got to see glimpses of what could be Dark Flash. It’s really exciting stuff.
One of the most exciting things we got to see was the introduction of, possibly one-time, Supergirl (Kara Danvers) played by Sasha Calle. She looked amazing, absolutely stunning. This might be the only time we get to see her but she looks like she’s going to make herself known to the world. There is a Supergirl movie on the new DC slate that I’m more excited about. You know, Supergirl with her trademark blonde hair, and skirt. That will be one for the ages, but Sasha Calle is the now, and she’s killing it.
We got to see her take on Zod from Henry Cavill’s Man of Steel while Barry took on the Dark Flash. The graphics of the movie look absolutely insane, and I know now why James Gunn and Peter Safran decided to leave this awesome movie. As good as it looks, and will possibly be, the movie serves a different purpose. The Flash movie resets the DCU and is the official start and turning point of the new DC Universe that James Gunn, Peter Safran, and the gang are creating. I honestly can’t wait to see what the future of the DCU looks like.
The Flash movie is one you most definitely don’t want to miss. Even if you hate Ezra, just watch it because of this amazing character we’ve all loved since we were kids. Don’t punish the Flash for Ezra’s mistakes.
The Flash might be one of the best movies for 2023.
