    Had to, for Keaton’s Batman.
    My young me would have never forgiven me otherwise. Loved every second.

    CGI was embarassingly bad. Miller acts like a drunk monkey. The story was all a huge clichè.

    The only very good thing (beyond Keaton), surprisingly, was superwoman - I would have gladly watched an entire spin off with her. She’s seriously cool.

    I liked it overall. Didn’t enjoy some of the CGI and wish the ending with him getting his dad out of prison was different. Makes it seem like he didn’t learn his lesson at all.

    But overall, I liked Ezra’s performance, Keaton Batman, and Supergirl a lot.

      So I never minded Ezra Miller as the Flash before. I could not stand him in that movie. Supergirl was meh. Batman was really the only redeeming quality. Like I took some serious nostalgia hits to the feels, and it was awesome. Couldn’t save that train wreck though. Oh and I should note that I am a lifelong DC fan, and I really enjoy almost all the other Snyderverse movies. In fact I wish he had directed The Flash. Oh yeah, and the CGI was atrocious.

        I do very much agree that I wish Snyder directed it. I didn’t mind Ezra in this mainly because of the contrast between the 2 Barry’s. I did enjoy his character a lot in Zack Snyder’s Justice League.

    Watched it a few days ago, honestly it wasn’t as bad as the box office would make you believe. Some thoughts:

    • the CGI was really quite bad for such a big budget movie
    • I’m a sucker for flashpoint type movies, which definitely made me more biased towards it
    • I’m starting to get really tired of multiverse cameo heavy movies like this (including across the spiderverse)
    • Kara wasn’t as compelling as I’d hoped
    • Ezra Miller is a garbage human being

    Overall I did enjoy it for the most part, it coukdbr been better but given DC’s track record this was actually in the top 25% of dc projects

    it was better than expected. every scene with barry’s mother was touching. keaton rocked. calle did great with the little screen time she was given. the last scene with batfleck was very good. however, the cgi genuinely sucked imo. overall a decent send-off for an unfortunate cinematic universe.

    It has one of the best final shots I’ve seen in a film since The Fabelmans. I laughed loudly at that. And honestly the rest of it was super fun. The big battle scene was a blast, and has some incredibly innovative stuff in it.
