Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies The animation is solid and the voice acting is even better. And as someone who read and followed “Flashpoint”, I can’t help but appreciate the film’s loyalty. Rated: 3/5 Aug 17, 2022 Full Review Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Brian Costello Common Sense Media Violent animated tale about tragic pasts has frenzied action. Rated: 3/5 May 3, 2016 Full Review Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Sean Axmaker Seanax.com It's the butterfly effect as comic book apocalypse and it's a dark, brutal animated film. Mar 17, 2016 Full Review Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Scott Mendelson Forbes The film feels unique and vibrant if only for the fact that it's the painfully rare DCAU title that doesn't revolve around Batman, Superman, or a Batman/Superman-led Justice League. Rated: 7.5/10 Aug 1, 2014 Full Review Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Peter Canavese Groucho Reviews For all its apocalyptic fate-of-the-world theatrics, this...[adaptation of] the 2011 graphic novel Flashpoint by Geoff Johns and Andy Kubert...has an emotional core to give purpose to its crazy amounts of mayhem. [Blu-ray] Rated: 3/4 Aug 13, 2013 Full Review Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Jeffrey Lyles Lyles' Movie Files Years from now it may be looked at as the animated film that took the direct to video comic book movie market to another level of storytelling possibilities. Yes, it's that good. Rated: 9.5/10 Jul 31, 2013 Full Review Read all reviews

Max S not only is it good, without it we wouldn't have the first few seasons of the flash show. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/15/24 Full Review Bassed H Honestly my favorite movie ever up there with the spider verses and the christian bale batmans. Well not the best movie ever made its my personal favorite, the voice acting, the main characters, the villain reverse flash all so good. While the pacing felt a bit fast at times and the animation isn't perfect still a great movie Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/14/24 Full Review Eye C If only DC makes like Disney and produces this animation features into a live action features, without changing anything. This is amazing and one of my favorites storylines… if only…. Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/16/24 Full Review Antônia maura M Nao tem o que reclamar desse filme o vilão e bom o flash aqui mano tá muito legal sem falar do Batman desse universo que meu amigo que Batman foda esse filme eu não achei defeito nenhum dele ele merece a nota que tem eu ia assitir para passar o tempo e me empresionei sério e muito legal assite sem medo nenhum sério. Se o filme atual do The flash fosse igual a esse seria simplesmente perfeito Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/12/23 Full Review matthias s "Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox" is a gripping and action-packed animated film that explores the consequences of altering the timeline. Directed by Jay Oliva, the film is based on the DC Comics crossover event of the same name and features an ensemble cast of iconic superheroes.The animation in "Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox" is top-notch, with fluid and dynamic action sequences that showcase each hero's unique abilities. The voice acting is also impressive, with Kevin Conroy reprising his role as Batman and Michael B. Jordan delivering a standout performance as Cyborg.What sets this film apart from other superhero stories is its exploration of the ethical implications of time travel and the ripple effects of altering history.Fans of the Justice League and The Flash will not be disappointed, and even those who are new to the franchise will be swept up in the excitement and drama of this epic adventure. Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 11/09/23 Full Review Mike S I just recently discovered the concept of the DC Animated Universe continuity after watching several of the films out of order, intermittently. Once I knew about the DCAU continuity, I decided to watch them all in release order. I hadn't yet seen Flashpoint, but I've followed the Flash and the Justice League in multiple formats off and on for years. So everything in the movie made sense to me, and it was absolutely fantastic! I'll avoid spoilers, but it was one of the best examples of a "butterfly effect" plotline I've ever seen, and the animation and voice work were all top notch, especially for something released 10 years ago. This was the perfect jumping off point for the DCAU, which I'm now about halfway through. Every one of them has been a bare minimum of 4.5 stars so far, so the series is worth watching in chronological order and is deserving of all the acclaim it seems to have gotten. It's not an exaggeration to say it should be in the same conversation with the quality of the MCU, when you adjust for full animation vs. CGI. Can't wait to finish these movies, especially since I've already seen the last movie in the series and know how it ends. It's a thrill ride from start to finish, from everything I can tell. And Flashpoint is pure gold for starters. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/27/23 Full Review Read all reviews
