Its not a bad film, but very mediocre, by-the-numbers, predictable and cheesy. The humour is typically juvenile in James Gunn style and not really funny. It was OK but nothing special.

Lex Luthor in this movie is not a patch on Gene Hackmans version, Nicholas Hoult is a great actor but the character is REALLY one dimensional in this film, like a parody Lex Luthor. The actors that play Superman and Lois do an OK passable job but nothing great. The plot is your typical entirely predictable superhero fayre, I wont be interested in the Supergirl film if it is this standard of movie.

In summary this was a remake that didn't need to be made. Doesn't add anything new.

I liked the trailers and the early reviews were good, I went in looking forward to top tier Marvel again, but this isn't it. Each to their own, but I think anyone that rates this a 9 or 10 must have had a lobotomy. Its also nowhere near a 0-5 score. 6, 7 or 8 is a fair rating.

Its the same old story that has been told so many times over and over, by-the-numbers formulaic and entirely predictable. If you've seen the trailers, you have seen the movie.

It has a theme around depression, but only in the most U rated superficial and shallow way that a Marvel movie can. Pixar has dealt with the subject of feelings in WAY more depth and nuance, the depression shown in the film is just a very superficial plot device that is giving the antagonist some motivation and backstory, nothing more. The ending is extremely underwhelming.

The good points are that it is well constructed (even though it is the standard basic Marvel plot) the CGI is mostly very good and the actors all try their best with what they have.

It is better than a lot of Marvels recent failings so theres that.

Well Disney have done it, they've beat the life out of Star Wars and flogged it to death. Andor was a recent SW highlight, and Mandalorian started well before it went off the rails and became boring, similar to Obi Wan Kenobi, Book of Boba Fett and Ashoka, this is more of the same substandard mediocre at best "content" designed to fill a schedule slot and please the shareholders and nothing more.

There is nothing for the fans, rubbish wooden acting, nothing of interest, uneven pacing and a lame script and plot, yawn more lightsabers again. It didn't capture my attention at all. Disney need to learn that less is more. I lost interest and won't be watching any more episodes, I just can't be bothered with SW any more.
