No joke, The Flash is the ultimate movie-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…”

"Just watched #TheFlash at CinemaCon. It has some stuff you will not believe, and showcases much more of Barry Allen's powers. It is one of DC's best and fits nicely as a bridge story between the old and new DCEU franchises. It's also the funniest DC movie," reviewed another.

"#TheFlash is a compelling, character-driven flick with a real emotional core & game-changing stakes. With heart & humor aplenty - along with some shocks & surprises - there's so much to be excited for. Keaton steals the show with a terrific performance. A real love letter to DC!" wrote Nicola Austin of Empire magazine.

Fandango's Erik Davis agrees. "DC's #TheFlash is TREMENDOUS! Forget DC; it is, undoubtedly, 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."

Okay, so who else is hyped now?
