Garry A @heavyg Sep 10 The visuals are really cool and the Braniac storyline was awesome. See more Phillip C Aug 24 Is it the best movie ever? No. But this IS just outright the best version of Supergirl in anything ever. See more Waki W Jul 1 This movie was good and awesome to watch at home. The fight and action were stunning in this animation form. Superman vs brainiac was blast and every character were great as well. See more Anderson O @Platinum2027 08/02/2024 The closes to a R-rated Superman Movie where going to get, Superman:Unbound is a bolder brasher Clark/Kent Superman animated movie with suprise cameo appearances and Superman remaining good, saving the lives of two separate planets. See more Max S 07/12/2024 Bad animation story with mediocre story. If you’re looking for a brainiac movie, I would suggest this over brainiac attacks but not by much. See more matthias s 11/09/2023 "Superman: Unbound" is a thrilling animated film that showcases the iconic superhero's might and bravery as he faces his greatest challenge yet. While the movie may not be perfect, it's still a solid addition to the Superman filmography and worth checking out for fans of the character. One of the film's biggest strengths is its action sequences. The battles between Superman and the movie's villain, Brainiac, are intense and visually stunning. The animation is top-notch, and the fight choreography is some of the best I've seen in an animated superhero film. The film really showcases Superman's abilities and makes you believe that he truly is the most powerful being on Earth. The voice acting in "Superman: Unbound" is also excellent. Matt Bomer does a fantastic job as Superman, bringing both strength and vulnerability to the character. John Noble's performance as Brainiac is equally impressive, giving the villain a sense of menace and intelligence that makes him a worthy adversary for Superman. Unfortunately, the film does have its flaws. The plot can be a bit convoluted at times, and some of the supporting characters feel underdeveloped. The movie's pacing also feels a bit uneven, with some scenes feeling rushed while others drag on for too long. "Superman: Unbound" is a solid animated film that will definitely satisfy fans of the character. While it may not be perfect, the stunning action sequences and excellent voice acting make it a must-watch for anyone who loves Superman. See more Read all reviews
