Justice League The Flashpoint Paradox Review
Justice Leagues animated universe telling the story of ‘Flashpoint’ and DCs 2011 reboot of their universe, this tells he story of the fastest man alive, Barry Alan The Flash. and how the universe around him has changed for the worse and he is the only one who can change it back.
With this universes Batman is a gun toting anti-hero, Cyborg being the biggest and best superhero of this universe, and a war between Atlantis and Amazonia, theirs no Superman or even a Justice League, the world is dark and twisted from its normal DC unvierse.
I have never read the comics of this event, big crossover events that change everything, in comics have never caught my attention as i never followed comics myself, so these animated movies of big events always interested me so i could get an idea, and from i understand it glosses over many smaller storys and characters to tell the important story of ‘Flashpoint’ and its world and the after effects of this event.
The story is great, it gets to the point and you know as much as you need to know about what is happening or what could be happening to understand all of this without showing too much early on to ruin the mystery of the whole thing until it’s revealed naturally with story progression.
The main problem really has to be a few of the character deisigns, mainly Superman, aquaman and Cyborg…with their next level silly looking designs and it just seems odd that everyone else has an odly Young Justice look about them…they are just the odd ones out. but with a few camos, some pretty well animated actions scenes and aside from a few…odd CGI running Flash bits the whole thing is pretty good.
