I just got back from this, and enjoyed it for the most part, but doubt I will ever see it again, beyond possibly watching the Keaton scenes. Keaton Bats was easily the best thing, and Miller's acting was the second best, when his character was reigning it in a little. I think they tricked the audience there, though, by making him incredibly obnoxious at the very beginning so that when you saw him act relatively mature it was like Deniro in Raging Bull by comparison. Supergirl was fine but nothing to write home about. Keaton action scenes were also my favorite, probably because they weren't as reliant on the horrible, horrible, horrible, horrrrrrrrrible CG as all the other scenes. The cameos mostly fell flat for me. I chuckled maybe three times, but generally thought the humor was bad. Guy next to me thought we were watching Office Space though. Laughing his ass off like there was no tomorrow. . .I agree that the emotional climax with Barry and his mom was really effective, but otherwise the tone was all over the place and it was hard to really get into the movie from that perspective. End of credits scene seemed pretty pointless. They couldn't come up with anything better than that?
Frankly, the biggest negative take away I have from this is that Gunn and Safran are giving this guy the reigns to the Brave and the Bold based on this film. If anything, the movie works despite the director from what I could see. I won't blame him for the CG, but this movie had a lot of wasted potential.
If that was modern CGI, then we still have a hell of a long way to go. I felt Spiderverse handled the random cameos in that scene so much better. There were so many places they could have gone. Showed a lack of imagination.Nah i’m just messing with DiFabio i’m still disappointed lol
I still can’t believe they gaveNick Cage Superman an action scene but had Reeve Superman just stand there with his arms folded. They blew the one chance they had at giving us Reeve’s first scene using modern cgi, major fail!
