... the film presents the longest sustained fight sequence in the animated DCU, which directors Jake Castorena and Sam Liu make interesting with dramatic imagery and inventive twists. Go to Full Review Eammon Jacobs Flickering Myth 02/21/2019
4/5
While The Death of Superman may not be a perfect film, it is a thoroughly entertaining addition to the DC Animated Movie Universe that not only pushes it in bold directions, but sets up a direct sequel adapting the equally iconic follow-up storyline Go to Full Review Sheraz Farooqi CinemaDebate 12/13/2018

Jorge A Jul 12 Sin palabras... Es esencia de lo que Superman siempre debió ser en la línea principal de DC estudios. Drama, acción y secuencias de genuina autenticidad, con una animación pulcra y pulida que detalla de manera perfecta los límites del hombre de acero. See more Dak D Jun 16 This one is way overrated. The animation style is bad, the voice acting is bad, and the story of just ok. It felt a lot longer than 1h30m. See more matthias s @Thescreenasvor 11/09/2023 "The Death of Superman" is a thrilling and emotional animated movie that captures the iconic comic book storyline with impressive detail. As a fan of the original comic book arc, I was pleased to see that the movie stayed faithful to the source material, while also adding its own unique touches. The animation is top-notch, with fluid and dynamic fight scenes that showcase the raw power of Superman and his foes. The voice acting is also excellent, with standout performances from Jerry O'Connell as Superman and Rainn Wilson as the villainous Lex Luthor. One of the movie's strengths is its focus on the human side of Superman, exploring his relationships with Lois Lane, the Justice League, and the people of Metropolis. These emotional moments add depth and weight to the story, making the final battle all the more impactful. "The Death of Superman" is a must-watch for fans of the Man of Steel and superhero stories in general. It's an engaging and well-crafted movie that does justice to one of the most iconic moments in comic book history.
