Mark Hamil does well to shake off the Luke Skywalker character as the devilishly delightful Trickster, although he has never been recognised for it. He plays The Trickster with such energy and great psychology.
I still feel that The Flash was one of the best interpretations of a comic book character ever displayed but unfortunantly disappeared before its time. John Wesley Shipp is also fantastic as the subtle Barry Allen, but this time shows his comedy side as he is brainwashed to work with the trickster halfway through the film in the film's most hilarious scene....the courtroom scene.
I will be critical, the film sometimes sloaps off into extra information that is not always needed; i.e: the relationship between Barry and his girl, who is so forgetful that I cannot even remember her name.
Far superior to the first film and the even the third. This is a great achievement for the industry of comic book films, it is only a shame that no one can find a copy for it anymore.
I feel that it could benefit from a resurrection, or even a remake could work. This is a true piece of action and comedy that has always played 56th fiddle to the truel bad comic book films over the years, such as the hulk and the phantom.
