After what certainly feels like a long wait—with tumultuous times for its star and a regime change for its studio in the meantime—DC’s The Flash, directed by Andy Muschietti (the It series), has finally screened for an audience at CinemaCon. How did Barry Allen’s big-screen solo sojourn (“solo,” but with assists from Batman, Supergirl, etc.) fare? Here are some early reactions!
The first reactions are pouring in from Cinemacon 2023, and right now, they’re… surprisingly good? There was a lot of talk coming into this movie, especially among Warner Bros. execs themselves, about the buzz for Muschietti’s superhero smash, and it turns out that buzz might be a little realer than some expected. Check out a few of the reactions, kicking off with io9’s own Germain Lussier.
