Dark Superman, and very good at that

Okay this is not faithful to the comics, which "purists" may object to. However as somebody who firmly believes in judging a movie or such on its own merits, I did like this movie. It is too short, and consequently despite the intelligent and well-balanced tone it generally had the script did feel rushed through. However, I liked the dark and even unflinching tone of the story, and the action scenes while violent are compellingly choreographed. The animation is great, very detailed and atmospheric indeed. The characters are well drawn also, though the high cheekbones may take some getting used to. The music is rousing and unpredictably moody and the characters are still interesting, the relationship between Superman/Clark and Lois while different to what one would expect was still convincing. The voice acting was terrific, especially from Adam Baldwin and John DiMaggio, though Anne Heche is lovely and James Marsters is the very meaning of suave as Luther. All in all, very good but not for everybody maybe. 8/10 Bethany Cox
