Fans are mere days away from seeing what James Gunn And The DC Universe has in storeAnd an early word is great. Superman comes to theaters On July 11, with early staunch projects taking place on July 8 in preparation, the social media embargo on the press and influencers who saw the film have now risen, and the answer is incredibly positive.
Many praise the film for their unique takeover of the character and world. Others love new actors like David Corennswet as Superman, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, and Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor. But not everyone thinks it’s a cross-board home run. Here are just a few of the first reactions pouring for James Gunn Superman.
#Superman Ignites. It is an incessant joy, filled with humor, action and emotion.
It is a show for saving, unbridled optimism, and nasty unpredictability that links everything together, even when there are some small problems. We’ve never seen DC like that, and it’s great. pic.twitter.com/km2ec0cdddd

#Superman so made me happy. The film is loaded with joyous actions and a well -placed humor and lever, but the beating heart of the movie is Superman’s humanity, and his insistence to do good and make the world a better place. David Corennswet brings such … pic.twitter.com/cpacpdxmql

#Superman There is a triumph for the new DC universe.
It is a comic brought to a beautiful living activity, full of hope and fulfillment. It actually provoked tears of joy from me.
It’s a superior for everyone. David Corenswet was born for Superman & Clark Kent. Loved it. pic.twitter.com/ng2crd2gh0

#Superman is a winner. I have complaints with the Marvel levels of CGI. But James Gunn created a sprinkling colorful superhero film with terrible characters. Mr. Terrific stole the movie for me. Corennswet and Brosnahan Shine: I can watch a whole movie just about their chemistry pic.twitter.com/ykpaqwuxcv

#Superman Absolutely switches! Wonderful achievement and hopeful balm, honoring past iterations (cinema and comics) while cutting their own way. Corennswet has that heroic glow. Hoult is reasonably devilish. Brosnahan Brims W/ Vim & Vigor. Adorbs of Krypto. @Superman @warnerbros pic.twitter.com/8ss3fnff8i

James Gunn #Superman It’s the perfect superhero movie and a terrible start for the new DC Studios. It is big, bright, exciting, full of hope and it never loses its sense of wonder. Watching it felt like she was opening a comic and is celebrating her wild, otician imagination. Loved it! … pic.twitter.com/sfvzoat1mg

I loved Superman! James Gunn hugs the fervent, sometimes lovable heart sides of comics and their superior (Ahem) fun concepts in a way evokes Raimi’s Spider-Man. Corennswet & Brosnahan has excellent chemistry and perfectly embodies Clark & ββLois. And Krypto is the best, obviously. pic.twitter.com/vtnluvfkgp

I wish I could watch #Superman repeat for a week.
They * finally * gave me the Lois Lane, which I begged.
The world needs this movie and we can all learn so much from Superman.
I laughed. I cried. The DCU arrived. @Jamesgunn struck it out of the park. pic.twitter.com/kumeif8izx

I absolutely loved James Gunn’s Superman. Big topics, but still pure joy. It put me in a great mood (which is not often today); It’s the happiest I got out of the theater since Top Gun: Maverick #Superman

Superman: The closest thing we will get to live activity on Saturday morning. The cast (Esp David Corenswet and Rachel Brosnahan) is literally perfect. Too bad it looks like that. Full review soon!

We’ve seen #Superman And it was a mixed bag for our criticism. Not at all disaster (have some good moments) but not as good as expected. Rarely the film shortened an essential role-loded lane and, surprisingly, Clark Kent. Many soups, not much Clark.

Superman reminds us that Clark Kent has always been a lighthouse of hope and the goodness that can exist in this world. James Gunn’s vision is a comic book life and it bought lightness and happiness to one of the most beloved heroes around. pic.twitter.com/prxsgfrfdk

James Gunn and the cast really bottled that classic #Superman Magic in this movie. As someone who grew up buried in DC Comics, this felt that my childhood jumps from the page in real time.
It is for families, comic nerds, and anyone who has ever loved a good dog history pic.twitter.com/ffgintaljhs

I have seen @Jamesgunns #Superman!
It feels that action comics are being realized. It is exciting, fun and most important, hopeful. @Cor Act as @Superman It is warm and remarkable and he looks like he has the time of his life. He is the perfect hero to lead the #Dcu. @Dcofficial pic.twitter.com/8i1xlqvlln

The full review embargo raises Tuesday afternoon, and something9 will post ours at that time. This will give an even better reaction to what fans can expect when they see the movie this week, leading to the opening weekend, which DC has been targeting for years.
Let’s not forget that more than three years ago Henry Cavill returned as the man of steel In Black Adam. The scene of final credits was thought in the next wave of DC movies. However shortly thereafter, the balance of power actually changed at DC with James Gunn and Peter Safran commissioned. They separated ways with Cavill, and one of their first companies was to announce Superman movie for 2025. This Superman movie. And now it’s here.
Do you tend to believe these social reactions? They can, of course, be overwhelming one way or the other, which might appear some audiences. Let us know below and go back soon for much, much more of the world of Superman.
Do you want more Io9 news? Look when waiting for the latest Marvel,, Star Warsand Star Trek releases what follows for the Dc universe in movie and televisionand everything you need to know about the future of A doctor who.
