Yes, the latest is a pretty super 'Superman' movie.


I have found all the cinematic versions of Superman enjoyable in different ways. But this latest Superman stands a very good chance at becoming my favorite version. It’s the first to truly tell the story using the wilder and more playful (and in moments, more emotionally effective) lens of the comics, instead of trying to make a comic book story more “realistically” cinematic. 

No spoilers here, but I will divulge it’s also just a really good dang time in the theater. Our showing was packed and it makes me so happy so many people are seeing a movie with a strongly positive overall message that also just feels good to watch together.


P.S. It was an impulse purchase and ridiculously expensive, but I do not regret, not one whit, picking up this adorable Krypto popcorn bucket. Now I just have to decide whether he lives in my office at home or downtown.


How could anyone say no to this?!
