Superman: Man of Tomorrow

Well, truth be told, I can't really claim to have been much overly excited when I sat down to watch this 2020 animated "Superman" movie. Why? Well, it is a superhero movie, and I am really overly keen on those. But still, two things made me sit down to watch "Superman: Man of Tomorrow". First of all, I hadn't already seen it, and I do like to watch movies I haven't already seen. And secondly, it had Lobo in it!

Now, I will say that the storyline actually turned out to be good. I was enjoying it, for sure. But truth be told, why do we need another alternate origins story to Clark Kent and Superman? Haven't there been enough of those made already? To me, it grows tiresome when they keep re-writing origins stories for characters.

It should be said that they had a good ensemble of voice actors and actresses brought in for this animated movie. And that is a very important aspect for an animated movie's success; having the right voice cast. I was very thrilled to know that it was Ryan Hurst adding his rough voice to Lobo, because that was just a superb fit.

The animation style in "Superman: Man of Tomorrow" was adequate, although it bordered on being a bit too edgy at times. I mean, the style of drawing, not the way it was presented. Of course, this is a matter of personal preference. It was good, but I prefer a bit more smooth art style for animated movies.

"Superman: Man of Tomorrow" will definitely please fans of the DC universe, I believe that much, and it was actually well-worth sitting down to watch.

My rating of the 2020 "Superman: Man of Tomorrow" lands on a six out of ten stars.
