सुपरमैन

If boredom had a cape and could fly, it would be this movie. Superman: Legacy manages to do the impossible: make the Man of Steel feel like a soggy paper towel.

Let's start with the plot-if we can even call it that. It's less of a storyline and more of a loosely taped collage of clichés, half-baked ideas, and scenes clearly written during a lunch break. We're introduced to a Superman who has all the charisma of a DMV employee and the emotional range of a brick.

The villain? An AI-generated placeholder with all the menace of a wet sock. The stakes? About as high as deciding between decaf or regular. And don't even get me started on the forced "emotional" moments, which had all the subtlety of a freight train and none of the impact.

The dialogue is painfully robotic, as if the characters are reading fortune cookies to each other while pretending it's Shakespeare. Clark Kent spends half the movie brooding like a sad influencer who lost his Wi-Fi, and the other half giving awkward pep talks that somehow manage to be both boring and unintentionally hilarious.

Visually, the CGI would've looked impressive back in 2006. But in 2025? Watching Superman fly looked more like someone struggling with a green screen TikTok filter.

And finally, the pacing: glacial. Entire civilizations have risen and fallen in the time it takes this movie to move from one dull scene to the next.

In summary, Superman: Legacy is less a cinematic experience and more a two-hour exercise in wondering what went wrong. If you're a fan of Superman, avoid this one to preserve your sanity-and your childhood.

I felt like I joined the movie half way through at the start. The muddle of characters rapidly became overwhelming and there never felt like there was a plot. The guardians of the galaxy style just didn't work as well on supes..

This felt like a comedy first and superhero second. Too much needless changes from the source material as well just made me feel like yet another DC reboot or remake is too little too late.

A reasonable attempt but falls short of being good.

I honestly don't see how this movie could impress anyone older than 10. Sure, it's colorful, lighthearted, and has a few crowd-pleasing moments - but underneath the cape and charm, it feels more like a Saturday morning cartoon than the cinematic relaunch of an iconic hero. For a character as emotionally rich and symbolically heavy as Superman, this version felt oddly flat, even juvenile.

The movie opens with a tone that hints at something deeper - maybe a layered origin story or a grounded emotional arc. For a moment, it feels like James Gunn might give Superman the complexity he deserves. But that promise fades fast. Instead of evolving into something meaningful, the story flattens into a series of lighthearted moments, cheesy one-liners, and safe, predictable beats.

It's like the film is afraid to take itself seriously for more than five minutes. Every time it flirts with depth, it quickly retreats to humor or surface-level charm. That approach might work for younger audiences, but for anyone hoping for a mature or compelling Superman narrative, it's a letdown.

Most of the cast did a decent job - nobody was outright bad, but no one really stood out either. The performances felt safe, almost like everyone was playing within tight creative boundaries. Even characters who are supposed to command the screen - like Superman and Lex Luthor - felt surprisingly muted.

David Corenswet as Superman checks the boxes visually, but his performance doesn't leave much of a mark. There's no real emotional weight, no moment where you truly feel what Clark is going through. And Nicholas Hoult's Lex Luthor, while an interesting casting choice on paper, lacks the menace or charisma that makes the character memorable. He's just... there.

It's frustrating, because these are some of the most iconic roles in comic book history - and yet the film doesn't give the actors enough material to make them feel iconic.

Are bright, the costumes pop, and some of the early shots are eye-catching - at least for a second. But once you settle into the movie, it all starts to feel a bit stale. The CGI is fine, but nothing we haven't seen before. The action scenes are clean but lack intensity or creativity. There's no real visual identity that sets it apart from every other superhero film.

It's like eating candy with no flavor - it looks fun, but you stop caring pretty quickly.

Superman (2025) feels like a movie made to play it safe - colorful enough to distract, light enough to entertain kids, but ultimately hollow for anyone expecting more. It had the opportunity to bring real depth and emotion to one of the most iconic heroes in fiction, but instead settles for a flat, overly sanitized version of the character.

If you're under 10, you might love it. For everyone else, it's just another cape in the crowd.

I watched this Superman movie and thought it was really dumb! The actors do the best with what they are given but overall it's a mediocre movie.

Warner Brothers must've thought this was going to warm them a billion dollars but this movie has no heart and it's a mess of a film.

I've watched Man of Steel and it's a damn sight better than this jazzy comic movie.

I'll have to go back to the original 1970s film to watch something with genuine heart and excitement!

I just couldn't... I went to it with an open mind because I have loved James Guns previous movies but ive also loved Zack Snyders version of superman with Henry Cavill... It started good but I never got sucked in to the story or the characters. There were a lot of stupid scenes and actions by characters, and everything just felt flat and messy... I never felt a single care for anyone of the characters, well only for one, the dog crypto, what a pain that dog was, I love animals and especially dogs, but no one has raised or educated that dog one single bit.

I was so disappointed about the movie, because I really wanted to love it and wanted to be excited for the future... But it was boring, to goofy, pale, bad actors and characters and almost nothing fell in place... I LOVE SUPERHERO movies and movies in general, and im sorry to say that this didnt hit me at all.
