I’m told you shouldn't put babies in corners, but how about a microwave? (Though I have been on so many flights recently that the latter idea does seem appealing!). This one takes a while to get started as we meet "Barry" (Ezra Miller) and are shown the family situation that resulted in his mother’s death during a robbery and his father being accused of murder. Hoping to prevent his dad from execution and bring his mom back, he decides to use his incredible speed to challenge time itself! Despite receiving a warning against this potentially dangerous idea from "Batman" (a very brief appearance by Ben Affleck), he proceeds; gets knocked out of the timeline and finds himself facing – himself (but looking much better with wavy hair). This isn’t the only thing changing in the fabric of space-time, and soon after, “General Zod” (Michael Shannon) arrives determined to avenge the destruction of his home world, "Krypton," on Earth's inhabitants. "Barry" has to think quickly and try to gather what he can of the "Justice League" to fight this threat. It turns out "Bruce Wayne" (now Michael Keaton) has let himself go quite a bit, and “Superman” is being held in an impenetrable metal container in Siberia. Time to rally and get rescuing before his future, along with everyone else’s, disappears. Can they all save the world? I liked this film. It's full of action, has some wit in a script that leans toward a more mature audience (without excessive profanity), and Miller possesses "P" – Personality. They clearly seem to be having fun, and there’s a lot of charisma coming from both performances from an actor who goes against the typical trend of being handsome but rather stiff. Miller is certainly the former, bringing life to the role. It's enjoyable, and helped by a story that has some substance and plenty of momentum, we are taken on a series of lightly humorous adventures that make the two hours and twenty minutes pass quickly. Sasha Calle provides a break from the Ezra show as Superman’s cousin – she can hold her own in a fight too, and Keaton does well as he revives his disillusioned "Batman" character using his gadgets to great effect. It's much better than I anticipated, and I have to say that I appreciated Miller’s unique take on “Barry” - it’s far from Grant Gustin’s overly pure portrayal. The multiverse can continue inventing and reimagining scenarios, and the visual effects can achieve almost anything – but without strong and relatable characters, I'm sure I will become bored with these stories repeating themselves. Miller is different. Of course, we all know about their publicized issues, but I hope the studio overlooks that and commits to a sequel that allows this actor to continue doing what they do well here - which is entertaining us. It needs to be seen on a big screen; it would look pretty ordinary on television.
