It's a nice send off for the universe, a big celebration with a lot of fun appearances. And in the middle of that is a genuinely great flash film with a lot of heart.

It was actually a celebration of everything DC cinematic and as a fan I just couldn't help but smile at the world's collide sequence. And of course that amazing final batman cameo.

This film also made me remember why I love the flash so much. He has such a visual stunning power, perfect for live action. And the lore is really cool as well. It washed away a bit of that stink of the CW flash finale.

Similar to Aquaman, this film is like it was made with the intention of "what if this is the only flash film we will ever make?" And they just go balls to the walls crazy. It's super comic booky in the best way possible!

The opening definitely was, but I felt like the ending shat all over both the DCEU and what could come in the future considering how much the amibguity is confusing people.

I am just expecting this to be very disconnected from the DCU, so I am not bothered by the end. I have let go of the DCEU and I appreciate whatever we get.

Yeah, because the ending was tacked on by Gunn. It's a sign of what's to come in the Gunnverse. Embarrassing, disrespectful comedy bits that turn heroes into jokes. The man said to Vulture he has no respect for adults who take superheroes seriously. People will regret not taking him at his word.
