6/10
Better than the live version
23 September 2020
Warning: Spoilers
The first half is better than the second death of Superman is much truer to it's source material than reign of the Supermen is. Spends too much time on Clark and Lois's relationship. I get it trying to establish their characters for casual fans but fans who know and love the source material will be slightly disappointed. Huge props to Rain Wilson who is perfect as Lex Luthor. Which is a huge departure from the source. Luthor is part of the story but it's Luthor Jr. Doomsday looks like he's supposed unlike the live action where he looks like a cave troll lord of the rings ripoff and there are logic errors. Reign of the Supermen is a huge departure from the source material namely Darkseid is the main antagonist which yes Henshaw does eventually run into him in the books but not in reign of the Supermen the visor Superman is vastly different each of these could have easily been 2 - 2 1/2 hours each but alas that's not what DC did here. Overall though enjoyable and yes much better than both Batman vs. Superman and Justice League
