Reaction:  Solid numbers for what is hopefully just the start of yet another successful DC Comics Universe film series, which has become Giovanni Garcia's highest grossing film as a writer.


"Franco and Foster are both great in their roles, but the rest of the cast is given very little to do in this often overly simple superhero origin." - Henry Stewart, Chicago Sun-Times

"Dave Franco lends an appropriate every man appeal to Barry Allen while still convincingly filling out the skin-tight superhero costume. In a rare leading role for the younger Franco Bro., he commands the audience's attention throughout." - Paul Landon, Film School Rejects

"The Flash was a decent introduction to the character, although it was definitely lacking in the action department. This was a solid start, but I'm hoping this is just a stepping stone to even more exciting adventures from Franco's Flash." - Michael Carthage, Associated Press

Rated PG-13 for superhero action violence
