I've heard good things and the trailer looks fun. I look forward to watching it. I'm waiting for a sale before I buy it on my digital service of choice (Amazon.)

That makes sense. My friend watched it in theater like 5 times. You could wait for the stream

idk, i think i could go another decade or two without seeing another superhero movie and that's not just me being a bitter, contrarian ♥♥♥♥, though that sorta enters into it a bit, i suppose.

It was ok but there were still a few glaring problems that were annoying.

Like Superman getting his butt kicked more than has ever happened in any previous adaptation.

Him needing Krypto to save him multiple times. (and Krypto being wildly untrained - making him an EXTREMELY dangerous animal)

The baby not being injured during all that chaotic mess of CGI diarrhea. (which looked so awful)

The "pocket universe" that Lex created suddenly creating a rift that tears the city in half.

Everything about the "black hole"


So many parts of the movie were just dumb. Like inducing eye rolls and groans dumb.

Overall it was entertaining to watch, but it's going to suffer the same problem as many other modern movies. After you see them once or twice, there's simply no desire to watch them again.

New Superman was surprisingly good.

Haven't seen it yet but nowadays praise for any movie mostly means "the cast was 90% white males"

Just stop already. Not everything is about race and gender. If you're going to a movie and taking head counts, your schtick is getting so exhausting. Get over it.

It was... fine.

I hated how the dog was completely CGI in every scene. Gunn has this weird obsession with putting a CGI animal (or anthromorph) in everything. Is he secretly a furry? It would not surprise me. It's fine, but it's odd he always has to have that element.

It also felt like the movie had little purpose beyond setting up other characters for future projects. Maxwell Lord is setting up Wonder Woman. The "Justice Gang" is setting up the "Justice League". The ending sets up SuperGirl.

The weirdest part is that 'Black Adam' seemed to have setup this 'Superman' movie. Just replace the JSA with "The Justice Gang".

I still like man of steel better with Henry. But this felt like a good comic booky movie and I'm tried of marvel movies.

I didn't like 'Man of Steel'. Henry performed the role well. But the direction of the movie was way off.

The dark tone was awful. Not just the story. The muted tones and colors make the whole movie dull. Especially on a re-watch.

The trailer sucked, so I thought the movie would too. I am a fan of Supes, so I saw it anyway. The trailer did not do it justice. Green Lantern looked like absolute dog ♥♥♥♥♥ in the trailer, but he ended up being the best part of the actual movie.

the new Superman movie was awful. i can't believe someone would watch it 5 times
the first time was bad enough

I don't blame you and a lot of people have super hero fatigue. I'm pretty much done with these movies but I saw superman because it was on a stream

Dean Cain and The Christopher and The George are the only good Superman film and series out there.

Have to admit I enjoyed it more than I thought i would.

It is so sad how they keep rehashing the same 50s neo-fascist mentality over and over. Ubermensch indeed.

Kindness is the new punk rock

I am kind of hype for supergirl and krypto too.
