Superman 2025 Movie Review
Occasionally, a film captivates me so much that I’m compelled to revisit the theater before its run ends—a rare treat, as was the case with Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves. Other times, I’m quick to pre-order the 4K Blu-Ray, like I did after watching the live-action How To Train Your Dragon remake and Ryan Coogler’s Sinners.
When evaluating a movie, I consider whether I’d urge friends and family to see it in theaters, wait for streaming, or skip it entirely. My enthusiasm could be plotted on a star chart: a film I’d rewatch in theaters earns 4 stars; one I pre-order for home viewing gets 3.5 stars; a streaming recommendation garners 3 stars. Anything less is, well, forgettable.
I had high hopes for James Gunn’s Superman, but it fell flat. I won’t return to the theater, pre-order the Blu-Ray, or suggest anyone rush to see it—or even bother streaming it. Skip this one and revisit the 1978 Superman instead. That classic soars, while Gunn’s version stumbles, uncertain of its identity, tone, or purpose. It has fleeting moments—some laughs, decent action—but the more I reflect, the more I’m puzzled by how Gunn and DC fumbled this one.
Expectations were high for Superman as the DCU’s flagship film, touted as a return to form after years of lackluster efforts. The Snyderverse faltered, and DC has struggled to build a cohesive cinematic universe to rival Marvel’s, even as the MCU’s relevance wanes. Outside of standout non-DCEU projects like The Batman, Joker, and HBO’s The Penguin—all Gotham-centric—DC’s output has been a mixed bag. Beyond solid efforts like the first Wonder Woman and Peacemaker, we’ve seen incoherent disappointments like The Flash and Black Adam. So much spent, yet so little invested in a compelling script.
