Up in the Sky! It’s Superman

Wow!! DC is back and Better than ever!!! Watch out Marvel and the MCU, you’ve got some amazing competition for the years to come.
Now I know so many out there were disappointed when Warner said Henry Cavil would no longer portray Superman, myself included since I’ve been a huge fan since I was 10 years old in 2013. That said, walking out of this movie experience…. I haven’t been awe inspired by a production of Superman since I was a little kid watching the original 1940s cartoon they played in the waiting area of Ruby’s Diners with my parents.
David Corenswet truly feels like the Man of Steel ripped straight out of the original Comic book stories and gives the classic portrayal done by Christopher Reeve in 1978 a fresh coat of paint suited to the times we live in. Similar to Tom Hollands portrayal as Spider Man in the MCU, this Superman is truly a compassionate human character who does good simply because it is right. As well as doing it in a way that allows us in the audience to connect with their character.
That is something both studios have had problems with in the last decade of superhero movies, with some exceptions in the last 4 years, overshooting the qualities of their characters that allow us to recognize they are also people too, not just the perfect heroes we see in pictures. But complex and highly varied individuals who face issues anyone of us face everyday. That is this Superman’s greatest strength, yes he’s strong and powerful, but his power doesn’t make him who he is. His actions in the pursuit of justice creates a bridge that connects to the good in all of us.
On a personal note, this movie really hit home on certain points. As the grandson of immigrants, watching an immigrant hero who is the symbol of the American way was humbling and refreshing to see on the big screen. With the IRL problems affecting the country now, it was a shock to see the movie reflect the social issues we face as of today.
Lastly, the visuals and action were top notch in a way that fulfills the bar expectations of any great Superhero movie. Admittedly, compared to Man of Steel some of it was not fully match, but this Superman more that makes up for it in his different yet familiar execution. James Gunn has truly laid the foundation of the DC Universe going forward for now on, finally creating a worthy challenge to give Marvel a fair run for their money. All in all, can’t wait to see what the future holds for the franchise going forward and that fans, new or returning, will recognize this Icon of Cinema. For Superman has finally returned after all these years
