I think what really makes Superman (2025) so good for me is that is legitimately the first DC superhero movie ever that said, âHey, what if we make the movie actually be like the comic books?â They werenât embarrassed by the source material. They didnât try to make it more grounded or realistic. They embraced the inherent silliness of superhero comics without being camp or parody. It was earnest and sincere in its love for the source material.
What a novel concept. I really donât think I can name another DC movie that did this, at least that wasnât still a wild shift in tone from the comics.
I really hope they handle all the movies like this going forward.
