I just finished watching James Gunn’s Superman and I genuinely don't understand how anyone defended this slop. Opening the movie with Superman looking bloodied, fragile, and defeated is an immediate turn-off. Plus getting beaten by a remote controlled clone makes zero sense. How are Lex’s commands faster than the Man of Steel? Lmao. ​The Action: The fight scene with the Kaiju was genuinely laughable and goofy. It never once felt like an actual threat to anyone. ​Aesthetics: The suits look cheap af they feel more like rubbery jackets than actual superhero costumes and that harsh bluish color grading looks awful. ​The Score: The music sounds like a low budget Power Ranger episode instead of delivering that instant soaring hope that Zimmer's Man of Steel theme did. ​The Tone: Unnecessarily forcing needle drops and inserting jokes when the stakes are heavy just proves Gunn only knows how to copy paste GOTG template he memorized at Marvel. ​The Writing: And talk about senseless writing, bruh? Superman lecturing Lex about his "humanity" right after Lex literally murdered someone in front of him and destroyed half the city (and don't tell me the city was empty). ​The positive spots: Mister Terrific and Lois Lane. My Rating: 3/10
