Let’s
face it. If DC put out a DVD that had just The Flash on the title, chances are
you’d pass it by. He may be the fastest man alive, but he’s also a bit of a one
trick pony whose trick gets very old, very fast, So it was a genius movie to
disguise the Flash story under the bigger umbrella of the Justice League. And
it wasn’t the only genius move the filmmakers made. The story is told in an
alternate universe where Barry Allen isn’t The Flash, Batman is actually Bruce
Wayne’s father, Superman is trapped in an Area 51-style prison for alien
invaders and Aquaman and Wonder Woman are going toe-to-toe in a World War III
level fight for control of the planet. It’s such a cool universe that you
almost don’t want the big secret to be revealed at the end so things can go
back to ‘normal’. Thankfully, the creators carry off the big ending with the
same level of style.
