Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
There's a thin line between preserving an icon and merely delivering on an expensive franchise, but Singer's genuine connection to the Superman legend overcomes his predilection toward playing it safe.

rotten:
What could possibly justify making a Superman movie that runs 154 minutes? Plenty of films last longer, but their characters are generally sharp enough to recognize a guy with or without his glasses.

The movie may not be a single-bound building-leaper but Bryan Singer reconfigures the daddy of all comic-book sagas into something knowing, witty, and even sensitive.

Singer's revival of childhood wonder and timeless heroism [is] an extraordinary feat of movie magic.

... while I can't call it a home run, I'll say it's a solid base hit.
