Superman: Man of Tomorrow

Better than the latest live-action movies.

Some sort of unassuming, if not very small scale, origin story-ish attempt. The plotline about the parasyte seemed more fit for an episode of a series than a movie on its own, though the energy eater theme has been done by so many scifi/fantasy/superhero stories before. Lobo's purpose was very far-fetched

Pretty great animation, a fresh take on the character's origin, and I loved the character selection (Lobo, Manhunter, Parasite!). The final quarter of it, though, did fall a little flat. I was hoping for a fun battle but it was a bit of a letdown.

I really enjoyed it but I do wish that by the end of it, Superman felt powerful. I mean, that's what the guy is, and he was essentially punked the entire time. That's fine at first as he discovers himself, but there's a reason character arcs go the way to do, to give some payoff. But even still, I enjoyed the story, seeing the characters, the animation, etc. I also just generally quite enjoy superhero movies, even if it's a weaker one in comparison to others, which this is.

This could've been really good but instead, it wasted its potential. I'm not a fan of underpowered Superman stories and Lobo was used too much and Martian Manhunter wasn't used enough.

For the most part boringly dark Superman story. Had some merit, but this is the type of film which makes me less interested in Superman.
