SPOILER ALERT: This story contains spoilers from The Flash.
After what felt like an eternity of anticipation, countless script revisions, a history of delays, and a merry-go-round of directors, The Flash has finally sprinted onto the silver screen. With its apparent aim to indulge the nostalgia of enthusiasts of DC movies (even featuring a cameo referencing a scrapped Nic Cage Superman film), the movie has sparked a blend of reactions among critics, ranging from enthusiasm to skepticism. However, one aspect has resonated across the board: disappointment with the visual effects accompanying the Scarlet Speedster's maiden cinematic adventure. In response to the chorus of fan complaints, director Andy Muschietti has stepped forward to reveal that those seemingly subpar visual effects were, in fact, a deliberate choice.
