Fantasy and Action Films Gone in a Flash?


THE FLASH

ACTION/ADVENTURE/SCI-FI 

PLOT:    Barry misses her mother very much and his father is in jail for her death he decides to uses his speed to go back in time with terrible results.

WHAT IS RIGHT:   Erza Miller as Barry Allen/The Flash.  He is very funny and tragic at the same time.  He wants to keep his family together and keep superheroes in the world.  Sasha Calle as Supergirl.  Calle doesn’t have much dialogue but she is tough in the fight sequences.  The guest stars and there are many especially at the end.  Based on the popular comic book The Flash entitled Flashpoint in 1961.

WHAT IS WRONG:  He curses a lot but look what he is going through.  It is frantic very much.

SHOULD YOU GO:  If you like The Flash, the comic book and The Flash in the Justice League. It is worth seeing, but on the big screen--just maybe.

 

ELEMENTAL

3D ANIMATION 

PLOT:    A romance with Ember, who is made of Fire and Wade, who is made of water.

WHAT IS RIGHT:  The film is about race and can we get along with each other despite our differences?  It is very romantic, funny, amazing visuals and suspenseful!

WHAT IS WRONG:   The movie maybe too deep for kids and some adults.  Race and immigration is a hot topic at this time and many people don’t want to see that right now.

SHOULD YOU WATCH:  Like the Flash, due to PC and other issues it may be out of theaters quick.  But, YES!  It is a very romantic, amusing and tells the ageless story we can get along even though we are not the same.
