Literally just returned from this film.
Opening 15 minutes is ridiculous and filled with waxy, poor CGI.
Film is about an hour too long with an alt-Barry so obnoxious as to be cringe-worthy before Batman appears.
Supergirl is fine, but Keaton is by far the best reason to see this film.
"Cameos" also mostly fine, save the fact that several are just more poor, waxy CGI.
I predict a legless dud by the time it's all done. It'll win the weekend, then crash.

I was intrigued to see Keaton return to Batman after 31 years (!), but I think that's the ONLY part of it I would want to see. I'll wait for it to stream so I can just watch his scenes.

He's great and makes the film worthwhile. Film's a 7 because of Keaton. 4.9 without him.

SPOILERS!!!!
It's on Max now and I finished watching it. It's unfortunate that the trailers give away practically everything in the movie. There's hardly any point to watching it. Had some of these things been kept a secret I think it would have had more of an impact. I don't think it's bad but it's not really that great either. Again, you basically know what's going to happen from the trailers.
The CGI is awful and was that supposed to be the Nick Cage version of Superman?
The last scene seems to be a last minute add on, like it was a reshoot several months down the road. Ezra looks really weird in that last shot.
As was predicted, it fell flat quite quickly.

That's the case with most movie trailers now. I just chalk it up to cell phone attention spans today. Give them the whole movie in a Wiki and maybe they'll show up for the whole movie. And, yeah, that was supposed to be Cage. I was unimpressed.

Watched it on MAX, largely to see Keaton, and it was fun to see him again as Bats.
Alt-Supergirl is also a highlight which, unfortunately, they don't do much more with other than use her as both emotional and physical battering ram for the remainder of the movie.
Ezra Miller as prime-Barry is... OK? He's OK. As parallel-Barry he's just really annoying and unfunny.
Man, there's some bad CGI... all the glimpses into different Superverses. We get an attempt at the great Chris Reeve, a Nick Cage Supes, little nods like that. It should be moving but you just sit there blown away by the awfulness of the execution.
Terrible and sadly forgettable.

Terrible and sadly forgettable. The ending montage---and the hospital rescue? Lord, it was all cobbled together from somebody's Commodore 64.
