正义联盟：闪点悖论 (2013)

Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox is a thrilling 2013 American animated superhero film that dives into a dark, war-torn alternate reality, directed by Jay Oliva and produced by Warner Bros. Animation with a $3.5 million budget. This 75-minute adaptation of DC Comics’ 2011 Flashpoint storyline centers on Barry Allen, The Flash (voiced by Justin Chambers), who wakes in a dystopian timeline where Atlantis and Themyscira are at war, Superman is missing, and Batman is a brutal Thomas Wayne (Kevin McKidd). With a 7.5/10 IMDb rating and 100% on Rotten Tomatoes, it’s a fan-favorite in the DC Animated Movie Universe, lauded for its bold narrative and intense action, though some warn of its R-rated violence, a departure from typical DC fare. The film’s gripping moments redefine the DC roster: Barry, stripped of his speed, teams with a grizzled Batman—Thomas Wayne, wielding guns after Bruce’s death—and a rogue Cyborg (Michael B. Jordan) to restore his timeline, altered by his attempt to save his mother. Standout scenes include a savage Aquaman-Wonder Woman clash flooding Europe, with C. Thomas Howell’s chilling Reverse-Flash (Eobard Thawne) taunting Barry’s every move, and a heart-wrenching flashback of Barry’s mother’s murder. The voice cast—Nathan Fillion as Green Lantern, Ron Perlman as Deathstroke, and Dana Delany as Lois Lane—delivers gravitas, while Frederik Wiedmann’s score amps the apocalyptic stakes. Its animation, blending anime-inspired fluidity with gritty realism, shines in a climactic battle where heroes fall, earning praise for 'game-changing' storytelling, though some note its rushed ending skips comic depth. Released on July 30, 2013, this U.S.-produced film kicked off the DCAMU, setting up Justice League: War and influencing CW’s The Flash series. Its cultural impact lies in redefining Flashpoint as a multiverse pivot, with fans calling it 'DC’s gutsiest animation.' For DC fans or those craving a high-stakes superhero saga, it’s a must-watch where one man’s race against time reshapes a fractured world.
