Adore it or hate it, The Flash’s CGI wasn’t an accident. Director Andy Muschietti once insisted the film’s “weird” visuals were a deliberate creative alternative, especially within the much-talked-about Speed Force and Chronobowl sequences. “We’re in the angle of the Flash. Every little thing is distorted when it comes to lights and textures. We enter this ‘waterworld,’ which is essentially being in Barry’s POV,” Muschietti explained in an interview with Gizmodo.
“It was a part of the design, so if it looks a little bit weird to you, that was intended,” he added. One of the criticized moments occurs early within the film. Barry (Ezra Miller) races to save lots of Gotham City Hospital’s collapsing nursery, where babies and a midwife are in peril. As an alternative of a heart-pounding rescue, audiences are met with visuals that look… off. Many fans assumed budget constraints or rushed post-production were guilty. But Muschietti had a special answer.
Barbara Muschietti, the film’s producer, jokingly shut down concerns about realism. “No, we used all real babies,” she said. But Andy stuck to his vision, reaffirming that the CGI’s unnatural look was meant to reflect Barry’s super-speed perception. That explanation didn’t sit well with everyone. Some fans called it an “excuse” moderately than an inventive decision. Social media buzzed with side-by-side comparisons of The Flash’s CGI against older superhero movies, questioning why a 2023 blockbuster looked so unpolished.
The Flash has been no stranger to controversy. Even before its release, clips leaked online, with fans slamming the computer graphics. Many hoped the ultimate cut would look higher. It didn’t. Adding to the scrutiny, the film’s lead, Ezra Miller, has faced legal troubles, making headlines for reasons unrelated to the movie. Their rare public appearance on the Los Angeles premiere only added one other layer to the film’s rocky rollout.
Despite the backlash, The Flash delivered a solid superhero adventure. While some viewers found the CGI jarring, others appreciated the creative risk. The talk over its visuals may not fade soon, but one thing is obvious: Muschietti is standing by his vision.
