Pulling off the heroic feat of fleshing out a dynamic new world while putting its champion's big, beating heart front and center, this Superman flies high as a Man of Tomorrow grounded in the here and now.

The Travers Take

What sends Gunn’s “Superman” soaring over redundancy and overkill is the affection he feels for the Man of Steel in Corenswet’s uncalculated, cynicism-free portrait. Supie isn’t afraid to show his heart. He calls it the new punk rock. Maybe he’s right.

Rated: 3/4

If it’s not always a great movie it’s a fairly consistently great blockbuster.

The Wandering Screen (YouTube)

It moves too fast at times, juggles too much, and doesn’t always give its deeper themes the space they deserve. But it does exactly what it sets out to do: establish a new tone, plant narrative seeds, and leave audiences curious for more.

Rated: B+

James Gunn’s involvement created certain expectations that aren’t satisfied in this picture, but different can be good in some circumstances and that’s certainly true of this film – it works in some circumstances.

Great first outing! I can't wait to know what comes next. Only caveat was that this does feel like an episode of the cartoon, which I understand might turn some folks off.

I’m all down for the new Superman trilogy and I’m excited to see what James Gunna cook up next. Even though that peacemaker finale was mid but that’s me going on a tangent.
