Superman

“James Gunn's Superman movie launches the DC Universe in spectacular fashion, with a fun-filled romp that requires refreshingly little homework.”

Molly Freeman, Screen Rant · 90

“As both a story on its own and a prequel to a whole bunch of others, this movie must introduce us to a variety of characters we’ll meet later, and it does it without feeling too much like fan service or exposition.”

Alissa Wilkinson, The New York Times · 90

“There’s a lot about how we complicate and obfuscate what should be obvious goods, such as saving the lives of children. But the film’s approach isn’t ham-fisted, and it makes room for gleefully fun stuff, too.”

Alison Willmore, New York Magazine (Vulture) · 90

“The miracle of Superman is that, in 2025, it’s a superhero movie that inspires genuine delight.”

Alonso Duralde, The Film Verdict · 90

“For as expensive and action-packed as it is, this Superman is also stuffed with whimsical concepts and ridiculous side characters.”
