WORLDS COLLIDE.

In an attempt to save his mother’s life, Barry Allen (Ezra Miller) lands in a different dimension where he enlists help from his 18-year old self, a semi-retired Batman (Michael Keaton) and a girl (Sasha Calle) with superpowers.

An incredibly uneven superhero movie with moments of charm, including Miller’s performance and the retro appearance of Keaton’s Bruce Wayne.

Much of it though is infuriatingly dull, including General Zod’s (Michael Shannon) comeback and the endless battles and clashes between dimensions in the third act, all burdened by poor visual effects.
