Superman: Solar

For a fan film with a pretty small budget they deliver an exciting and no traditional superman story.

The creators really understand what superman is. He's a friend, to everyone.

While this film has some outstanding vfx moments and plenty of action the story is driven around a very real and relatable thing many of us go through in our lives... depression. The pacing is fantastic and keeps you excited.

I saw some low ratings and couldnt figure out why, read more into it... seems like silly review bombing because of opposing political views which had nothing to do with this film or its message.

Is the acting perfect? No. But its a fan film.

The costume? Sets? Spcial effects? And story? That is perfect!

Great job to the team!

Wonderful fan film project! I really liked the superman suit (how is it better than the official one we got from james gunn is crazy) impressive this entire film was made under 20k budget.

Great vfx seeing supermans speed and powers in full effect. Probably one of the better fan films out there for superheroes in general.

A story that will live on forever and a story everyone needs to see. This is what superman will always be about. Helping everyone no matter how big or small the problem is.

Hats off to the entire team behind this fan project you guys did a wonderful job hope to se more projects from you.

Seeing as it's a fan film the bar was set pretty low but I found some important aspects of the film was done poorly the casting was bad as none of the actors seemed to be able to "act" and I don't mean in an amateur way like basically just reading the script back to you which would have been better if that wasn't also bad at the core of the film itself it's characters it tried to depict were clearly not understood if not of the big s I doubt you would be a able to tell superman or the bald head Lex Luther it's not a professional film so I'll cut it some slack it's OK watch to while away time and not taken too seriously.

He cares about everyone, even the little guy. The guy we ignore everyday on our way to work or around the city. Thats what makes Superman special. The creators truly got that.

Some really great VFX sequences and exciting moments mixed in with a beautiful story of Superman helping one person. Because everyone matters to him.

Saw some negative reviews fabricated by nonsense it seems. It's a fan film sure. Has some flaws, but it delivers on so many levels compared to any other Superman fan film we've ever gotten and most fan films in general.

Everything in this has a meaning to move the story, tell a bigger picture. Not mindless fighting. Bravo to the team. This film should be seen by every Superman fan.

I am willing to cut a lot of slack for an indie film. I know technically, this is more of a fan film than true indie, but the principle is the same. Its a low budget film made outside of the hollywood system. I love that. I respect that.

So when I saw this is a truly bad film, I am not saying its bad in a "oh the VFX dont look like a million bucks" way. I mean its bad in a "has the director ever seen a movie" way

the acting, especially for clark kent, is bad. No charisma, so personality, and barely emoting at all. There are so many trained actors who are seeking some work, the acting here doest rise to community theater levels.

The camera work is sloppy. Again, not in a cheap camera sense, but in a way that shows no understanding of filmmaking. Why are shots framed the way they are? Where is the sense of continuity within a shot? How do they push the story forward

The writing is also very on the nose. No subtlety, no wit, no interesting way to convey information

There is no reason for a fan film to be bad. Its just an indie film that cant make any money. Lots of fan art is great. This isnt.
