Plot

 * Barry Allen, who has been wheelchair-bound and deemed mentally ill since falling victim to Darkseid's omega beams in The Justice League III, confesses to Wally West that when he went back in time to save the world in that movie, he was tempted to also save his mother through the use of the speed force. He eventually does save his mother, who has been living all these years. Barry tells him to not be tempted by the Speed Force as there are demons with bad intentions. He also tells him that he has been having crazy dreams and paralysis. Wally is stumped by this and upset at him, telling him that he is truly disappointed in what he has become.
 * Barry then wakes up in a world that is radically different. He does not need a wheelchair and is mentally fit. The movie follows The Flashpoint comic storyline very closely until the climax.
 * Reverse-Flash, now called Professor Zoom, appears to Barry before the apocalypse and tells him that Barry was the reason why the world is like this - he changed time when he saved his mom ten years ago, and it caught up to this time period, changing everything. Flash and Batman are able to take down Professor Zoom once and for all before Flash uses the Speed Force to go back in time again to stop his previous self from saving his mom, in order to save the world. He is unable to constraint his faster, younger self until Wally West appears into the Speed Force and they both constraint the younger Barry Allen.
 * Barry wakes up in present day and the timeline is restored. He is wheelchair-bound again and remembers the events from the alternate timeline. He makes amends to Wally West and his wife Iris. He then visits his mother's grave. The Phantom Stranger appears to the Flash and thanks him for what he did. Not only did he save the world from the explosion in the alternate timeline, but the changes in timeline has temporarily hidden this universe from a universe-hunting enemy whose power is hitherto undreamt of.
 * Dick Grayson makes his first appearance as Batman at the end of the movie. Barry gives him a note from his father, John Grayson, from the alternate dimension.
 * In the credits scene, a supposedly innocent Lex Luthor from a different universe appears to Cyborg.
