Continuity mistake: During the fight in the desert, after Flash creates a tornado, the background behind Flash-original-suit changes: the corpses lying on the ground change number and position, and several tanks suddenly appear everywhere.

When The Flash tries to prevent his mother's death and his father's arrest for it, the impetuous act has very dire consequences for the entire multiverse in this 2023 action-adventure film. Mixing odd CGI, weird casting, the strangest portrayal of babies falling, people running and arguing with your younger self, the overall effect is truly cringe-worthy. Some cameos are thrown in, including Michael Keaton, Gal Gadot and the original Flash, but it's Sasha Calle as Kara Zor-El who, with Keaton, steal the show in the saddest way. Indeed, this movies is somewhat funny at times but more so quite sad as it tumbles towards the end.
0/10. A mess from start to finish especially when consider the mess caused by the star himself outside of this hence why anyone would want to watch it. Michael Keaton's presence can't save this turkey.

Wonder Woman: Nice suit. Looking good, Flash.
Flash: Oh, uh thank you.
Wonder Woman: [To Batman] And you are welcome.
Batman: My ego's far too big to say "thank you" to someone else. I developed this all powerful persona to compensate for my childhood trauma.
Al Falcone: I too have childhood trauma.
Wonder Woman: The Lasso of Truth. Never gets old.
Batman: [Struggling to get the Lasso off] I'd do a lot better just giving all my money away. If I really wanted to end crime, I should end poverty.
Flash: [Helping with the Lasso] I know sex exists. But, I've just never experienced it.
Trivia: SPOILER: Nicolas Cage has a cameo in this film as an alternate version of Superman fighting a giant spider. This is a nod to the cancelled film "Superman Lives", which would have starred Cage and been directed by Tim Burton. The giant spider was part of the script at the insistence of producer Jon Peters, who finally got to make use of the idea in Wild Wild West.
Answer: Some possible reasons gleaned from the Internet: Filmmakers wanted a different vision of Supergirl to reflect a darker, grittier personality and to show her refugee-like experience. Her dark short hair symbolizes her harsher journey from her home world. Also, it gives her a more androgynous look, reflecting both her feminine and masculine traits. Adopting a radically different look for an established character also shakes up viewers' expectations and generates more publicity and interest in the film.
