Superman: Legacy

[deviation]

Watch this last night. As soon as the film started and the first few notes of the original Superman theme kicked in, I got goose bumps which then almost instantly disappeared in the very opening scenes. Complete and utter gash.

What’s with the current crop of action films where the dialogue is absolute dog turd, sprinkled with teenage cringe, and then handed out to adults to regurgitate?

If you want a terrible modern super hero movie, watch Black Adam - nothing compares to how bad that was.

I put myself through it, and thankfully hardly remember anything of it.

I unfortunately, do remember. Thus it further wastes more time that I will never get back

I don't feel there was one, it came across as an ensemble movie but without the build up or cohesion.

I don't know about that, Lois disappears for most of the last act for example.

I noticed when
Superman is captured
and is off screen for awhile, but that only felt like 15 mins and other than that particular bit, he's the main character

Mr Fantastic was Terrific. Best scene of the film is when he was juggling his balls and knocking people out.

the whole 13B 9D 21X bull was laughable

Its the most stupid way to see Superman, of all people, being beaten up by some one with human Kinect controller lol. Thought he might break into Prappa the Rapper at one point.
I cannot fathom that writers, paid for this, in a room prob filled with comic books used for source went "Ya know what, how about this!?"

 

[VincentHanna]

People keep saying "writers"

This was entirely written by Gunn.

He identifies as more than one writer, though

Digital release was scheduled for the 15th August, but I still cannot watch it on Apple TV.

Am I missing something?

On Amazon prime it shows preorder for 26th (for Spain).

Usually the VOD date that gets posted here is for USA and many people use VPNs and virtual debit cards to buy/rent them on that date.

Watched would give it 6/10 wasn’t awful but nothing great either.

UK and I guess the rest of the world get the digital release on the 26th August.

That looks atrocious The reviews are hilarious!
I haven't even heard of that either It must be bad!
At first I thought it was a Bollywood superhero movie, going off the random cast

 

[Infidelus]

It was atrocious! Now that's a film I'd give a 1/10 (or even a 0/10).

Maybe they used the script from this to practice for Black Adam? That would make a lot of sense

Why did you hate it so much? I've seen a few eaten it low but none have given it 0/10.
