Superman 2025 is one of the worst superhero movies of all times. James Gunn, who excels in directing overdone violence, out of place quips, undeserved melodrama and perverted sex obsession brings all his trademark traits to this rendition of Superman. This isn't a Superman movie, it's a Marvel/Guardians of Galaxy movie with Superman in the middle of it. In fact, Gunn seems to enjoy writing Justice Gang far more than he does writing Superman. The former which ran off two jokes that were repeated ad nauseam throughout the movie.

What makes Superman a compelling character is gone in Gunn's sloppy adaption. He's not particularly strong, he's not particularly wise, he's a poor leader, he's extremely narcissist and gets easily emotional. And this is supposed to be a seasoned Superman. It's almost like Gunn was projecting his own shitty flawed character on to Superman. The only missing touch would be if Lois was a minor.

The action scenes are just a complete mess of CG blob. Superman is basically a rag doll that gets thrown all over the place and nothing in this movie has weight or meaning to it, particularly in its action. There's a scene where Lios and Mr Terrific break into enemy HQ and the whole ordeal is of course settled with a very catchy music montage of all the enemies being dismantled with utter ease. The next scene is off Clark trying to keep a CGI baby from drowning in lava with his deus ex dog arriving on timely manner to save him again. This is straight out of a Marvel movie and has no place in a Superman movie.

This rendition of Lex is also his most shallow depiction. There is no nuance or intelligence to this Lex. He's not particularly shrewd and constantly spills out his plans for everyone to find out. He throws into temper tantrums just like Superman and starts to sob and cry because Superman is better than him. Where is the elegance and intelligence of Luthor? This is basically a spoiled rich kid battling another spoiled strong kid. 1/10, MCU slop.

Explain to me how this isn't one of the biggest bombs in cinema history

>indirectly caused numerous DC movies to bomb beforehand because everyone knew Gunn had rebooted the universe
>rumored to have a 360m production + 200m marketing budget, which was later on toned down by WB
>massive ad and shilling campaigns all over the world and Internet
>Can't put Reeves Batman 2 in production because Gunn wants Batman aswell
>Movie releases to extremely forced shill narrative of muh optimistic DC
>Extremely mid box office performance, can barely edge out MoS domestically not factoring in increased ticket prices and is a complete flop internationally
>Even on /tv/ there are more threads on MoS than this one
>all online discourse is still about the Snyder movies
>Highlight of the movie is some CGI squirrel being saved because that's somehow important

How the fuck is this the hit shills claim it is? It has all but destroyed DC.
