An absolute cinematic disaster.

Mild-mannered Clark Kent works as a reporter at the Daily Planet alongside his crush, Lois Lane. Clark must summon his superhero alter-ego when the nefarious Lex Luthor launches a plan to take over the world.

Counted four explosions before the studio logo finished. Superman knows its audience.

Superman: where physics filed for emotional distress and lost.

Superman should come with a complimentary pillow for when the third-act CGI soup inevitably kicks in.

The script for Superman feels like it was entirely written by an algorithm fed nothing but energy-drink commercials.

The cinematography in Superman is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows

Rewatched Superman last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.

[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in Superman?

Honestly, Superman would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.

Hot Take: Superman's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece

Everyone praising the Superman performances must have watched a different cut. The lead is sleepwalking through this and the supporting cast can't save it.

Unpopular opinion: Superman is the most overrated film of the decade

Director clearly thought Superman was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.
