While Superman doesn't open in theaters until this Thursday, Amazon Prime preview screenings took place in North America yesterday evening. 

That's allowed fans to weigh in with their thoughts on the first DC Studios movie, and with over 1000 verified ratings, Superman is officially "Verified Hot" on Rotten Tomatoes' Popcornmeter. This is another big win for the DCU heading into the weekend. 

Not much has changed on the Tomatometer; Superman currently sits at 85% based on 161 reviews, meaning it's dropped by a whole 1% since earlier today. 

Regardless, there's no way the Man of Steel is losing his "Certified Fresh" status. You may recall that Wonder Woman 1984 debuted with that status in 2020, only to eventually slip to 58%; that same fate isn't one likely to be faced by Superman, fortunately.

At the reboot's premiere, lead star David Corenswet was asked if he had a message for fans heading into the weekend. "Be kind to each other, step up to the plate," the actor shared. "See what responsibilities you can shoulder, who you can take care of, who you can look out for. Go into the weekend with a little more energy."

That's our Superman! 

Filmmaker James Gunn has already confirmed that we'll see Corenswet as the hero again soon, suggesting he'll appear in Peacemaker season 2, Lanterns, or Supergirl (perhaps one or more of them).

Have you watched Superman yet? If so, let us know your thoughts in the comments section. 

Superman, DC Studios' first feature film to hit the big screen, is set to soar into theaters worldwide this summer from Warner Bros. Pictures.

In his signature style, James Gunn takes on the original superhero in the newly imagined DC universe with a singular blend of epic action, humor and heart, delivering a Superman who’s driven by compassion and an inherent belief in the goodness of humankind.  

The movie stars David Corenswet in the dual role of Superman/Clark Kent, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane and Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor.

Also appearing are Edi Gathegi, Anthony Carrigan, Nathan Fillion, Isabela Merced, Skyler Gisondo, Sara Sampaio, María Gabriela de Faría, Wendell Pierce, Alan Tudyk, Pruitt Taylor Vince, Neva Howell, and Milly Alcock.

Superman arrives in theaters on July 11, 2025.

@vectorsigma - so I'm a naysayer because I haven't liked Gunns choices (suit and certain shots) and knew it would be similar to his other movies which criticshave confirmed?

Time to grow up vector 😮‍💨

@JurassicClunge - My review NO SPOILERS:

8.5/10

My biggest complaint is it's too short. Can tell they cut alot. It doesn't by any means ruin the flow of the film although its nonstop and quite dense. Having said that....it took me 20 mins to be enveloped because of my expectations...I'm following along following the story and I just couldn't immediately fit in with it then all of a sudden it's like I was placed under a spell. It just clicked. Something intense happens that I didn't expect....I was LOCKED IN. I loved it. Funny enough, Robert Meyer Burnett said the same exact thing I just said above and I think the key may have turned in the same way for him after that first 25 mins....my idea of what this film was, I just got it and was fully absorbed in this fantastical world. My dad absolutely loved it and he has read every silver age Superman comic known to man. He's a die hard. The cast is fantastic dude. But I wanted MORE. I coulda watched another hour of this. It's a completely new universe. Throw out all expectations of what a Superman film should be and get ready for one crazy ass ride. Hope yall enjoy it as much as I did.


I can tell you, there's gonna be folks who struggle and it never clicks with them because of the last half century of Superman media. Some people's expectations of what it means to watch a Superman film are never gonna be able to get past the barrier. Obviously the critics seemingly are able to meet that task but will be curious to see where the audience score lands.

It's live action Saturday morning serial in the best way possible.

@TyrantBossMedia - "Any reviewer who got the early access...their review is tainted.

Wait until the general audience and the fans see it."

@UnderBelly - Audience scores are almost always review bombed for movies like this. We're gonna have to wait a while to try and see what the social-cultural response is. And of course the BO.
