This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

Every super hero has his nemesis - and this time Flash has that murderous mischief maker the Trickster (Hamill). The Flash II: Revenge of the Trickster combines 2 episodes from the short lived 90's TV Series called 'The Trickster' and the 'Trial of the Trickster'. Like i wrote to my actual review of the entire Series those 2 episodes have like a lot of Batman References and it's easy for me to spot them easily since i have seen the Batman: The Animated Series, Batman: Mask of the Phantasm and basically i know a lot of stuff about the Dark Knight for instance before Harley Quinn was introduced to the Batman TV Series there was Prank Trickster's beautiful and crazy assistant in crime and just like Harley and the Joker their relationship was never about actual love but just Trickster using them so she could provide him with weapons and vehicles also both Joker and Trickster are just crazy in general, they are murderers, criminals, they both hate 2 men that wear a mask and their pretty good in disguises. The whole plot point where the Flash gets brainwashed reminds me of when Batman was poisoned by Joker and somewhere about Arkham Knight just before the ending Batman started loosing his mind and it kinda shows how both men affected the superheroes as a whole. Megan Lockhart also returns for both adventures in order to help Flash and Tina to catch this maniac. The best part of both films or episodes at this point was Mark Hamill he is terrific on portraying this character and as much as he might be the villain you just love him for it. (A+)

I rented this movie the other day, and must say I have not seen a worse movie in quite some time. The main reason I picked up the movie was to see Mark Hamill in something other than Star Wars. Now I know why Hollywood wasn't really knocking down his door. The acting by all parties involved in this was awful. The two main females were especially atrocious.The movie itself feels like it has ended 4 or 5 times before the actual end of the movie. Each time I'm hoping that the torture is over, but no, it still goes on. The Trickster escapes from the courthouse or from jail, or from wherever once again, and goes to fight the Flash once again.The use of The Flash's powers was pretty sparse as well. He runs around fast a little bit, juggles to himself while beating on the Trickster a bit, but doesn't really do anything cool. The Flash is more than just running fast.Special effects for this movie were actually one of the decent parts, considering it's made for TV budget, it didn't look too bad. The Flash's costume was also rather well put together.Overall though, this was a very disappointing movie, both as a fan of Mark Hamill, and as a comic book fan. I'd recommend staying far away from it.

Once again the first season of The Flash produces a second film. This one went far enough to get mark Hamill to play the Trickster, who was frozen I believe in the 50s to be thawed out in the 90s. He, the Trickster, plays the role of the criminal genius born far before his time, so he freezes himself to awaken in 2000, but the timer malfunctions and releases him in the 90s. It was very campy but a good super hero story worthy of comic book legend. If only Sci-fi channel would rerun this series and its films to remind people and entertain younger generations.

From the beginning with Danny Elfman's theme this made for video movie displays an ability to entertain beyond it's low budget TV expectations. Mark Hamill's performance as The Trickster is wonderfully over the top and seems inspired by the 1960's Batman series as does the art direction and cinematography. The Flash II clearly outshines the original pilot episode and shows how great this short lived series could be. Not so happy as a clown but happy none the less.
