Nearly a decade after the film was first announced (with a 2018 release date) as part of the DCEU, and following a parade of directors and screenwriters, a pandemic, the slow-motion crash and burn of the DC cinematic universe as we know it, and the personal crash and burn of the film’s star, The Flash is finally arriving onscreen… And it’s a blast!ĭirected by Andy Muschietti ( It: Chapter One and Two) from a script by Christina Hodson ( Bumblebee, Birds of Prey), The Flash is everything that much of the last 10 years of DC-based movies have not been: It’s fast-paced, character-driven, and, most importantly, in love with the comics and the iconic superheroes themselves. In what amounts to the greatest irony in the history of the DC Extended Universe, one of the most troubled movies in the franchise has turned out to be one of its best.
