Superman: Man of Tomorrow (with DVD) [Blu-ray] [Standard]

Wow. This movie is exactly the best of a superhero story. Totally entertaining tons of action and intrigue. The script is really thought through and tells a story that interests you throughout. This movie isn't an origin story its Superman's introduction to what he is going to do for the rest of his life, which is many things including being a champion for Earth, being a reporter for the daily planet, being a son to his parents, etc. An introspection of Superman's journey to accept his path with this gift and life he has been given. This movie you'll be rooting on the characters. Which is another reason you'll like this movie. You get involved with the characters even the unlikely characters in this film like Lobo and his brashness or Lois and her willingness to do anything to control the situation and get the story. A huge difference that makes this a great movie is the quality. The acting is top notch, everyone sounds like they should. The sound is perfect from the monster yells to the peoples cries. The visuals were the best though. The new way they draw and animate this film is like no other before it. Really amazing talent and time that made the picture colorful, clean, crisp, with a pleasing look. It makes it like your reading a comic book. What a great way to reboot their superhero animated universe. I can't wait for the follow up to this movie. Highly recommend this one. I didn't go into much of the story cause I want you to experience the story for yourself and for you to buy this movie, it is worth it. Two thumbs up!

So we all know, more or less the origin of Superman. But this particular take on the Man of Steel, or Man of Tomorrow in this case, focused more on his being an alien in a human world and him coming to terms with that. You could used this metaphor for just about anything where people may judge you harshly for just being who you are. Intolerance in all its evil forms being what it is. But this is a fun, hopeful movie that gives us more than I expected. A really good addition to the continued winners that are the DC direct to Video Animated movies. If you are a fan of Big Blue, pick this up. If you're a fan of the other DC movies, pick this up. And that's about all I have to see about it. Thanks for reading and have a nice day!

Superman is a hard character to really explore because of his few flaws. This updated take on Kal El stays very true to the character and does an excellent job of exploring his origin and bringing in new characters like Lobo. It is a reboot but makes it a point to stick to the essence of the character, which as a fan is very important. I am very impressed by the overall story and take on the characters - and the ending was terrific making me want to see the next movie in this particular universe. There is some heart and character exploration here, which is why I highly recommend this to any Superman fan.

DC Animated movies are the only ones I still buy physical copies of. I'm not a huge Superman fan and another solo movie for him is so on brand for 2020 for ruining my day, but this was a fun watch with an interesting story and different(but not too different) animation style. Parent guide: Not overly violent but does have fight/action sequences. *NON-PLOT SPOILER ALERT BELOW* Lobo does use curse words three or four times, so do with that info what you want. Would recommend. Already gave it to my brothers and friends!

This movie really found the heart of the Superman character. No dark grittiness, but a real innocent good hearted Kansas boy who wants to help. The supporting cast was great with Martian Manhunter, Lois and Lobo dine perfectly. Lex Luthor was a step up too from the 52 version DC had been throwing out there. Great story, lots of action and a great start for what hopes to be the new direction for DC animated movies. Focusing on Supes rather than Bats would be a fresh idea.
