Micransix Crappy film
Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
Stephanie There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
DCfan To be honest I have never really read the All Star Superman comics. But I think this movie actually helped with understanding the comics. But to be frank I think this movie should have been split into to parts instead of one whole movie. In first part apparently Lois gets kryptonian powers as a gift from Superman which doesn't last for long and in the same segment two random Super powered metahumans turn up called Atlas and Sampeson. Find out the rest in the movie.In the second part Clark goes to a prison to speak to Lex Luthor and an ugly as sin Parasite wants revenge on Lex Luthor. Clarke protects his identity but still uses his powers to protect Luthor. Not going to spoil anymore of the movie but the ending was beautiful. The animation could have improved because it looked rushed.
altersaege You can think that the death of Superman should be surrounded by extremely epic celebrations and (as the title lets think) a meeting of all possible other superheroes. This is not so. It is a more slow paced (although not actionless and not boring at all), "sensitive", human, emotional and romantic Superman. Somehow poetic. It is a much better film than MANY super expensive Hollywood productions which bore after few minutes. After browsing internet for hours searching for a decent movie to see, I have only found thousand of the same, things i have seen over and over again. All seems meaningless and empty (no, I am not depressed, i am just saturated by the lack of imagination and creativity of modern cinematography). This movie was the best I have seen in a while. So, respect.
KineticSeoul I can see why some viewers that read the comic book this movie is based could be disappointed. I never read that actual comic book this movie is based on, but I could tell it's missing quite a bit from the comic book. Some parts felt like it was missing and seemed rushed at times. So the plot is about Superman is in a state where he is slowly dying and what he does during his last days on Earth as Superman. By trying to cram a lot of things into a short animated movie form, makes this one appear all over the place at times. And I could even say, a bit inconsistent. The animation is solid though and the movement to the design, was something I really liked seeing in this movie. I especially liked how Superman disguises himself as Clark Kent in this and how he does his best to disguise himself as this weak and clumsy reporter that people look down on. Because it gives you more into the depth of Superman's heart and what he represents. Which actually made me respect this fictitious hero even more. This movie had the potential to be great, but falls short because of the poor development and missing bits.6.7/10
implaxis I've only recently begun watching the DC animated movies and have rarely been disappointed, until now. The JLA ones are great, as was a team-up with Superman and Batman. So why did I not like this one? I have been a long-time Superman/DC fan and thought I was pretty familiar with the characters, but there were so many new ones introduced here that I'd never heard of, I might as well been watching an Image comics movie. Quite disjointed, characters and story lines appear out of nowhere. I disliked every second that Samson and Delilah, I mean Atlas, were on screen. It was several minutes before they were even named and I had no idea who they were. Luthor's niece does nothing to contribute to the story, and why was Jimmy Olsen in a dress in the first scene? This had the potential to be so much more, even epic.
