==Plot==
===''Part One''===
{{Anchor|Part 1|Part One}}
An elderly [[John Constantine]]{{efn|name=DCAMUConstantine|First introduced in ''[[Justice League Dark (film)|Justice League Dark]]'' set in the [[DC Animated Movie Universe]].}} sends [[Flash (Barry Allen)|Barry Allen]] on a "time trip" to key moments in his life, from gaining his metahuman abilities to a fight against the power absorbing android [[Amazo]] created by Dr. [[Anthony Ivo]] to his wedding with [[Iris West]].{{efn|As depicted on Earth during the events ''[[Justice League: Warworld]]'' (2023).}} During the fight with Amazo, [[Superman]] gets injured and is aided by Barry and [[Green Arrow]] and is brought to [[Batman|Bruce Wayne]] for medical help.{{efn|As depicted in the post-credits scene of ''[[Batman: The Long Halloween (film)|Batman: The Long Halloween]]''.}} In response, Bruce suggests forming a team with Barry, Clark, Oliver, fashion model [[Vixen (comics)|Mari McCabe]], and [[Martian Manhunter|John Jones]], who is now living on Earth as a private detective. However, they fail to recruit [[Hal Jordan|Green Lantern]].{{efn| Hal Jordan later joined the Justice League sometime before the events of ''Green Lantern: Beware My Power''.}}

During a press conference to unveil the Justice League headquarters,{{efn|This was before the Watchtower was built in ''Green Lantern: Beware My Power''.}} Amazo attacks the [[Justice League]], as its original primary function to improve human life has been altered by [[Lex Luthor]] to kill anyone that is not human. With the League unable to defeat Amazo due to its ability to absorb and copy their abilities, Batman opines that an airstrike is the only way to destroy Amazo, but the others reject the idea. The Flash goes to Ivo, who reveals he has contracted a [[Progeria|disease that ages him rapidly]], and has been researching quantum energy absorption with Luthor to create Amazo using extraterrestrial technology in hopes to siphon metahuman abilities using them to find a way extend human life. Ivo sacrifices himself by having Amazo give up all the absorbed metahuman energy to Ivo. Batman deduces Luthor gave Ivo his disease to prompt his experiments which causes Amazo to turn against Luthor. With Luthor arrested by the police, Amazo returns the stolen powers to Superman, Vixen, and Manhunter before shutting down.

Meanwhile, Barry is sent by Constantine to a parallel Earth known as [[Earth-Three|Earth-3]]. After a brief confrontation with his Earth-3 doppelgänger, [[Johnny Quick (Crime Syndicate)|Johnny Quick]], he is captured by the [[Crime Syndicate]] – tyrannical criminal doppelgängers of the Justice League – and is taken to their Hall of Crime, where he is interrogated by [[Superwoman]]'s lasso, confirming their deceased Luthor's theory of the [[Multiverse (DC Comics)|Multiverse]] and resulting in the Syndicate, who have grown bored with ruling their Earth, deciding to plot a Multiversal takeover. Suddenly, an anti-matter wave threatens Earth-3 and, despite the Syndicate attempting to halt it, it manages to destroy the world. Quick sacrifices himself to allow Barry to tap fully into the Speed Force and escape Earth-3 before its destruction. Constantine soon explains to Barry that he witnesses the parallel Earths being destroyed as his punishment and that Barry shares the same guilt.{{efn|As depicted in ''[[Justice League Dark: Apokolips War]]'' (2019) and the short film ''[[Constantine: The House of Mystery]]'' (2022).}}

On the day of Barry and Iris's wedding was attended by [[Lois Lane]], [[Harbinger (DC Comics)|Harbinger]] recruits Barry, Oliver, Mari, and [[John Stewart (character)|John Stewart / Green Lantern]] to a space station, where other heroes and super-powered people are gathered. Flash reunites with the [[Justice Society]] of Earth-2 who are old except for [[Wonder Woman (Earth-Two)|Wonder Woman]], [[Superman (Earth-Two)|Superman]], and a reincarnated [[Hawkman]] as he mistakes the Aquaman of Earth-146 for the Earth-2 version, but the latter corrects him as he is from an Earth that is completely flooded by the oceans and he has a harpoon for a hand, long hair, and a beard. Batman meets [[Robin (Earth-Two)|Robin of Earth-2]] and learns of his [[Batman (Earth-Two)|counterpart]]'s Earth-2 history as Robin of Earth-2 also introducing his Earth-2 counterpart's daughter [[Huntress (Helena Wayne)|Huntress]] whom he had with [[Catwoman#Earth-Two|Earth-2's Catwoman]]. Superman meets his Earth-2 counterpart and learns of Earth-2 Superman's relationship with Wonder Woman after his [[Lois Lane#Earth-Two|Lois Lane]] died. Each one is here based on their skills, strength, and speed from across the Multiverse and has been gathered by Harbinger as ordered by the [[Monitor (Mar Novu)|Monitor]], an ancient Multiversal being. The Monitor explains that an anti-matter wave, which is capable of destroying an entire universe, threatens the multiverse. Barry's time-tripping inspires the Monitor to create massive vibrational towers on the remaining Earths that will allow them to phase through the wave and survive. However, the wave rapidly spreads before the towers are completed.

Barry uses his speed powers to slow time for him and Iris, and they grow old together while completing Earth-1's tower with the help of Amazo. Upon completing the tower, the elderly Iris dies. The elderly Barry reverts to normal speed and activates the tower network by using a cosmic treadmill. The vibrational energy destroys his tower and Amazo but causes the antimatter wave to pass through the various Earths and dissipate, apparently saving the day. Barry is soon approached by the [[Spectre (DC Comics character)|Spectre]]. The Spectre claims that Barry bears responsibility for the Crisis, but that it is up to the Speed Force to determine his fate. Barry is then sent back to the moment he gains his powers and has an epiphany. Barry then appears as a vision to Batman when he is trapped in the [[Warlord (DC Comics)|Warlord]] [[Justice League: Warworld|illusion of Warworld]], telling him to go back to before "the beginning". Barry then vanishes, seemingly dying. Back on the space station, the heroes celebrate their victory. However, Harbinger, who is revealed to be Supergirl, realizes that they might have changed history when she sees her friends from the Legion of Superheroes (including her lover [[Brainiac 5]]) begin to disappear, ending the first part on a cliffhanger.

===''Part Two''===
<!-- We need to expand this setion! -->
{{Anchor|Part 2|Part Two}}
An army of shadow demons created by the [[Anti-Monitor]] has been sent to disrupt a series of cosmic tuning towers across the multiverse as a contingency. The task is made more difficult when the [[Psycho-Pirate]] broadcasts waves of hatred that cause people to turn on one another, and secrets the Monitor and Supergirl hold that may doom them all.

===''Part Three''===
<!-- We need to expand this setion! -->
{{Anchor|Part 3|Part Three}}
The remaining forces are regrouped in a pocket universe known as "The Bleed". A plane of existence untouched by time that is slowly dying. With the aid of a different variant of Lex Luthor from another Earth, the heroes from all the surviving realities must make one last stand against the Anti-Monitor.

Hayden Mears of ''[[IGN]]'' rated the film a 7 out of 10, with the verdict: "''Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths – Part One'' knows what it is and strives to do right by its source material. There's no depth, no moral murk, no optional profundity for the insight-hungry. Just good, clean, marginally sensical fun. The action and performances are nothing to shake a Batarang at, but it never loses sight of its stakes and (mostly) prioritizes character over plot".<ref>{{Cite web |last=Mears |first=Hayden |date=January 9, 2024 |title=Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths – Part One Review |url=https://www.ign.com/articles/justice-league-crisis-on-infinite-earths-part-one-dc-animated-tomorrowverse |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240115142858/https://www.ign.com/articles/justice-league-crisis-on-infinite-earths-part-one-dc-animated-tomorrowverse |archive-date=January 15, 2024 |access-date=January 15, 2024 |website=[[IGN]]}}</ref> Jennifer Borget of [[Common Sense Media]] gave it three out of five stars, praising its story but commenting that "The constant jumping between alternate Earths can make it feel like a time-traveling treadmill at first, and the action scenes might trigger a bit of déjà vu from other superhero tales."<ref>{{Cite web |title=Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths – Part One Movie Review |url=https://www.commonsensemedia.org/movie-reviews/justice-league-crisis-on-infinite-earths-part-one |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240115214146/https://www.commonsensemedia.org/movie-reviews/justice-league-crisis-on-infinite-earths-part-one |archive-date=January 15, 2024 |access-date=January 15, 2024 |publisher=[[Common Sense Media]]}}</ref>
