George Taylor While the message to this is good, the toon itself is one of my least favorites. The Elite are brutal, where Superman shows compassion. Who will win in the end? Superman and his morals, or the brutality of the Elite? Well, he is Superman.
DCfan This along side Superman Unbonded is probably one of the best Superman movies up to date. It was nice having George Newbern the voice of Superman from Justice League, Justice League Unlimated and The Batman reprise his role as Superman. The other voice actors were also really good as there roles. The animation how ever could have improved because it looked the animation from Spectacular Spiderman and the characters designs from Digimon fusion and Yo Kai Watch anime with fragments of there animation was put in a blender and spilt on paper. Back to the designs some of these could have improved. But aside from that the action sequences with The Atomic Skull and Manchester Black where good. We even get to see Superman's true power when he goes to the point of killing. I would recomand this movie to all Superman fans and JL fans.
justafu Somehow I knew this movie was going to be ALL THAT when the opening credits kept showing images of the Superman cartoon of my youth from the late 60's series. I loved that touch. Also let me say from the start that like a previous reviewer, I enjoyed this so much better than Superman All Star even though the artwork was a let down. Throw in George Newbern's voice again as Supes & Abby (Pauley Perrette) from NCIS as the voice of Lois Lane & you've got a winner for sure. BTW, I think she did a great job as Lois showing her as the feisty, modern, take-no- prisoners, lady reporter that we all should be familiar with by now. Her love for Clark/Superman is real & unwavering as well. I thought the exploration of current 21st century geo-political themes of waring nations and/or terrorism coupled with Superman eventually going dark as his rep goes way down hill via the new younger Elite as they rise up to try & take over was portrayed very well indeed. The action sequences and/or fight scenes kept the pace flowing while being fairly realistic, cartoon-wise anyway. Definitely PG rated for the violence & mature themes. In closing, I highly recommend this movie!
TxMike I found this 112-minute animated movie on Bluray at my public library. It isn't made with the super-realistic modern animation, but on Blu-Ray is super-clear and very enjoyable. I grew up in the 1950s and 1960s reading Superman and Superboy comics and this little animated movie was a nice blast to the past.They use unknown actors for the voices, but they are very good. George Newbern voices Superman and Clark Kent while my favorite was Pauley Perrette with her raspy voice as Lois Lane.The title comes from the group of 4 known as "The Elite", their leader is a British guy, Robin Atkin Downes as Manchester Black . When he told his genesis story, how he found out about his powers, he edited it to make it seem like he was just a good guy. But Superman eventually finds out he was not so good, and his plan was to take over enforcement for the world, using the approach "those who have the power make the rules", and that included killing those determined to be bad. Superman's legacy has always been to avoid killing, so it was opposing concepts and opposing forces that make this story. His task is to neutralize them, let them live but find a way to remove their super powers.It is a comic book story, nothing more, and it is fun to view for Superman fans.
