The 76-minute "All-Star Superman" synthesizes the famous 12-issue mini-series by writer Grant Morrison and artist Frank Quitely. Their take embraces the pulp fun of golden age Superman with a modern grace and a mythic dimension. Go to Full Review

Zayden C. @ZaydenCruzJace Aug 25 This almost hits the same amount as the comics. But it’s not as good as the comics. Although that’s not to say it’s bad by any means. But it’s one of the best animations by DC. Strong storytelling. See more Guy C Jul 31 Batman saves a ship too close to the sun giving him far too much energy than even Superman cant take and eventually will become pure energy. Before that he gives Lois a day she will never forget and a glimpse into his abilities. See more Riley S. @rileysipes54 Jul 21 A beautiful, faithful adaptation of one of Superman’s most beloved stories. All-Star Superman strips the character down to his core and gives us a poignant, emotional sendoff that captures his strength, kindness, and quiet nobility. The animation might not match Frank Quitely’s art, but the heart of Morrison’s story is intact. It’s not about punching villains (though there’s some of that); it’s about Superman confronting death and showing us why he’s still one of the greatest heroes of all time. Some of the story beats feel rushed which is hard to avoid when condensing such a layered comic but the spirit shines through. Bittersweet, hopeful, and deeply respectful of the source material. Superman, truly, at his most super. See more Fer S Apr 16 Quite boring. It also feels a bit all over the place. See more Sankalp good S Mar 31 It's a good film with fun touching moments n some flaws but also a good entertaining film it's define Superman with a higher purpose n humanity with a good charm it's a good film worthwhile watch 🦸‍♂️😃♥️👏💫 See more Hello W Mar 26 Recently Watched this masterpiece, loved it.
