Superman’s Latest: More Pooperman Than Superman
What did I just watch?… I nearly walked out after 30mins but preservered in the hope it would get better…. I wish I had walked out….
So, they brought Superman back to the big screen… and somehow made him look like a guest star in his own movie. What we got wasn’t a reboot, it was a dumpster fire dressed in a cape.
•”Krypto the Dog – Instead of charm, we got an overgrown cartoon mutt chewing the scenery. More Paw Patrol than Fortress of Solitude.
Supergirl – No depth, no presence, just “insert super girl who like to party here” energy. Blink and she’s gone, and you won’t miss her.
The Kents – Supposed to be Clark’s moral compass. Here they’re played like hayseed caricatures from a bad farm commercial. Hard to believe this Superman learned anything from them.
Green Lantern – Way off. Wrong tone, wrong look, and about as faithful to the source as a bootleg DVD at a car boot sale.
Lex Luthor – Once the greatest villain in comic history, now reduced to a sulky kid bossing around a group of contractors while giving instructions to a cloned “Super-Dope Battleship.” It’s parody without the comedy.
The whole thing is loud, shallow, and empty. Characters don’t resonate, cameos feel forced, and the script reads like fan fiction left in the microwave too long.
This wasn’t Superman. This was Pooperman, a stinking mess of CGI, weak writing and direction, and zero soul. And honestly? The only thing faster than a speeding bullet was me running for the exit.
