How Are the Reviews for The Flash?
Anticipated but delayed by production issues and controversies, “The Flash” had been teased since its Justice League debut. Despite fan curiosity over the solo adaptation of the comic book hero, the film drew mixed reviews from both comic enthusiasts and critics. With a 92% Rotten Tomatoes approval, it stands among the site’s top-rated movies. Additionally, it holds a 7.6/10 IMDb score and a 56/100 Metacritic score. Critics think that the film could have done better based on the reviews that it received:
- “Despite a far-too-long running time and a second half that often relies on audience-pleasing gimmickry in favor of a compelling story arc, The Flash is an exceedingly well-acted adventure with just enough gas in the accelerator to make it to the finish line before wearing out its welcome.” – Richard Roeper of the Chicago Sun-Times
- “Though the visual effects aren’t always the best and the third act is a bit overwhelming, strong performances and a refreshing earnestness keep The Flash on track and running circles around many of the recent DC Universe movies. If this is the truly last stop on the Snyderverse express, then it’s a respectable way to go out.” – Joshua Yehl of IGN
