TheFlash Review: DC's Middling Multiverse Movie Can't Outrun The Ezra Miller Factor TheFlashMovie
It's impossible not to talk about The Flash movie without talking about Ezra Miller. The actor plays not just one version of Barry Allen in The Flash, but two, sharing the screen more with themselves than with any of their co-stars. However, in the last few years, attention has been drawn to Miller's off-screen activities, ranging from the actor physically attacking a woman in 2020 to facing charges of burglary and being accused of grooming in 2022.
The Flash is loosely based on the Flashpoint storyline from the DC Comics, which sees Barry Allen travel back in time to prevent the death of his mother, Nora and wrongful arrest of his father, Henry . However, Barry ends up not only changing the present, but the past, and he finds himself in an alternate universe where Bruce Wayne looks a little different from the Batman he knows .
The Flash is meant to be Barry's story, but doesn't make a compelling argument for actually caring about him. He's rude, awkward and unlikable, made worse by the movie clearly banking on Miller's charm and charisma to appeal to audiences, which fails to land if you have any knowledge of their off-screen actions. Instead, The Flash attempts to make Barry likable through his relationships with others, most egregiously with Iris West .
Ultimately, The Flash wants to have its cake and eat it too — and have a second cake and eat that as well. There are so many cool ideas in The Flash, from the two versions of Barry Allen and tackling the multiverse via Flashpoint to the return of Keaton's Batman and the introduction of Supergirl, but the movie fails to fully deliver on any of them. Miller's off-screen actions overshadow his performance as both versions of Barry, which isn't very strong to begin with.
