Superman
This is everything I wanted it to be. It had me laughing and smiling from start to finish. Superman just felt right!!!
I loved all the characters!! The whole cast felt like a perfect fit. I loved Brosnahan as Lois, she felt like that strong reporter who doesn’t let anything get in her way.
The choice to make Jimmy Olsen a player?? I actually really liked it, it was definitely interesting but I enjoyed it, especially his relationship with Eve.
Nicholas Holt as Lex Luthor was FANTASTIC. He wasn’t just a douche with money, he was pure and cold, psychotic!!
The rest of the cast was great, notably the members of the Justice Gang and especially Anthony Corrigan as Metamorpho.
I would’ve liked to have seen more Clark, but what we got I did enjoy. The scenes with Ma and Pa Kent were really lovely and I also really liked the choice to make Lois know who Superman is as it had that door open to really look into their relationship and it’s rocky start but growing to appreciate having each other in their lives.
I wish they would’ve pushed the commentary on the genocide. Many people have pointed out the situation which is very similar to Israel’s ILLEGAL attacks against Palestine. I think that should’ve been bigger and more obvious as James Gunn really has the platform to speak about situations like that and especially when your movie features THE FIGURE OF HOPE AND GOOD.
Overall, I loved this film. Seeing Milly Alcock was great, I already love her as Kara. I’m really looking forward to everything that the DCU has to offer next. This is potentially THE comic book movie and I already can’t wait to see it again.
