Then that wouldn't be the Flash. He's supposed to be the fastest character around with speed that rivals or even surpasses Superman's and Man of Steel already showed how fast Superman was so they couldn't slow him down.
Besides which they made Quicksilver in Age of Ultron slow in comparison to him and his Fox equivalent and he still lost for the sake of a gag so the speed itself isn't the issue.
Actually, in the comics his power is that he can control his atomic structure. Anything else he does is usually due to technology.
His Wiki page describes one of his abilities as
"Apocalypse has control over the molecular structure of his own body and can alter it at will. This means he can adapt his molecular structure to adversity."
So that was comic accurate as opposed to the other Quicksilver just being an idiot.
I guess it worked better with Hela because Thor only really fought her once at the end (the first fight isn't really a fight because they ran as soon as it started).
In first appearance she still crushed his hammer easily. Then she decimated the Asgardians so she was extremely powerful from the very second she was introduced.
That is what should have been done with Ultron but they started him off weak and that cheapened him throughout as we already saw him blasted to pieces.
If his armor saved him, it means his armor is tougher than Doomsdays' skin. And if he can block her strikes it means he's got super speed of his own and should've trashed everyone there except her and Flash because they don't have super speed.
Well yes evidently his armour is tougher than Doomsday's skin but that has nothing to do with raw physical power anyway. Steppenwolf does have super speed and he did trash Wonder Woman. In the final battle he trashed Cyborg by ripping his leg off and then was still dominating Wonder Woman and Aquaman at the same time so he was.
And that's against the spirit of the Justice League comics, where they always had stories without Superman making everyone else look redundant.
And they've also had stories where Superman has clearly been the most powerful of the lot and they've counted on him to defeat an enemy that nobody else could. They even did that in the cartoon with Darkseid.
It's obviously not something they'd do repeatedly, it was down for this movie to hype up his return.
