The Flash 2023

Incoherent plot, a bit too much unexplained (such as how come Keaton-Batman knows all about time travel?). Pacing was all over the place, and too many things got resolved by pure plot contrivance. And the effects looked absolutely awful. Not a single effect involving a CGI person worked, not even a little bt. And the attempts at deepfaking were even worse. Someone, somewhere in the team responsible for this someone should have pulled the breaks and said "no, the tech isn't there yet. We can't do what you want, not at this budget and with this amount of time". I'm almost sure someone DID point this out, and was apparently ignored. This is absolutely embarrasing. I might have been able to excuse these effects if I saw them five years ago on the Flash TV show, but in a "blockbuster" movie? No, not a chance.

Thre were things I liked. Mostly references etc. Cameos were mostly shit, especially the JL ones; most of those felt forced and uninteresting. But finally seeing Nick Cage fighting a giant spider? That was awesome.
