Kat Sachs Chicago Reader I certainly had fun. Jul 25, 2025 Full Review Dwight Brown DwightBrownInk.com An entertaining reboot. A quirky, humanizing and socially conscious interpretation of a classic story retold for this generation. Rated: 3/4 Jul 24, 2025 Full Review Philip De Semlyen Time Out [A] puckish and political (but wildly overstuffed) blockbuster. Rated: 3/5 Jul 23, 2025 Full Review Chris Tait Tait's Take (YouTube) Definitely worth seeing. It’s definitely worth seeing in the theaters and it’s definitely worth seeing on the biggest screen possible. It’s far from perfect. But i think its a love letter to Superman fans and i think its a love letter to comic book fans. Rated: 3.5/5 Sep 3, 2025 Full Review Troy Ribeiro Free Press Journal (India) This film may be overstuffed at times, but it’s brimming with heart and ideas. Unlike previous iterations, this edition is steeped in a sci-fi setting that’s modern and hyper-connected, reflecting a world shaped by surveillance, social media... Rated: 3.5/5 Aug 30, 2025 Full Review Charlotte Simmons The Treatment (Substack) Superman is, primarily, an announcement. That announcement is metamodernism — not romanticizing, not deconstructing, but unearthing new ways forward using the power of curiosity. Aug 28, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews

Mason M Honestly just too goofy and in a style I don’t enjoy when it comes to Superman. The whole tone felt very guardians of the galaxy/ Quantumania to me, not serious at all which took me out of the stakes in the plot … I didn’t enjoy what they did with the classic Superman story and not really focusing on his development into Superman at all… idk just wasn’t for me Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/05/25 Full Review Tareq The worst in the entire movie history Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/05/25 Full Review Luis I went to go see Fantastic Four today but it’s making me review Superman. Tbf I loved both but Superman a bit more lol Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/05/25 Full Review Robert E A truly human Superman1 Unusual for these superhero movies, which tend to create weird interactions among the characters and staged internal conflicts that don't feel real or that feel too immature to me. Portrayal of Clark's humanness added a great dimension to the movie that made it very watchable, and even relatable. From my perspective, superhero fighting and action violence is often overdone - and I'm sure others feel the same way - but you can take it in stride with the positive cinematic extravagances in this movie. I'm not typically a fan of the DC universe, but I'd watch any sequels with the same enthusiasm I had for the Spiderman series. Well done! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 09/05/25 Full Review Noreen H I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. I have seen, ( at my age ) every thing ever made of/about superman. From the comics, TV, and movies. The story line was pretty much traditional superman. There were definitely a few surprising editions. And a lot more comedy than I expected which was really nice. I must say though the only thing I didn't like were the way his parents were portrayed. Traditionally his parents were stronger in their demeanors. I didn't mind the emotional content. It was the way the emotional content of the parents was portrayed. I just didn't like it. It's indicative of the way the world is making men appear as weak and the women in control, which is why we're in trouble now in the world. I have nothing against women in leadership. I'm against women in leadership putting the man in an inferior position all the time. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/04/25 Full Review Saad superman be losing too much whole movie.
