The last few decades of Superman on the big screen created an unfortunate myth about the character: Superman was “boring,” “too powerful,” “uninteresting” and then, bizarrely, “grumpy and brooding” in the Zack Snyder Universe.

James Gunn’s “Superman” reminds the world why the Man of Steel belongs on top of the list of most iconic — and compelling — comic characters of all time. It’s a movie brimming with pure joy, ethos and adventure that recreates that feeling as a kid when you pick up a random comic book and become immediately invested in a whole universe of thrilling nonsense.
