watched this for the first time tonight, and was mesmerised ! its basically Lex beating Superman and what happens next.Very enjoyable and much richer than i thought it was going to be. Lots of wee comic references to things like Jimmy olsen,Watchmen and even a nice nod to John Byrne's Superman . a very pleasant and surprisingly good.

I agree, Gerry. We saw it as a family on opening night at the movies, and it had both a comic book sensibility but also emotional depth. Some real heroism, turned on its head.
We also have the blu-ray and the kids enjoy rewatching it.

My kids love this movie since they first saw it with us as the Cinema Grill. "Olo!"

This and Bolt are my two non-Pixar favorite animated features.

This and Despicable Me and How to Train Your Dragon are my three favorite non-Pixar (and I like them all better than Up).

Shelby and I watched this tonight for the first time. We really enjoyed it (though I felt Minion should have been called "Mr. Monkey Fishhead"). It's a good companion piece with The Incredibles and Big Hero 6 (though I like both more).

Apparently you are unaware of my long-running legal battle with the filmmakers over their unauthorized use of my image in the movie...

Yep, have to agree, this was in heavy rotation in my house for a while I would always get sucked in. One of my favorites.

Though, if I have to complain about something, and I know I don't but I'm going to anyway .... I felt Brad Pitt's casting was way off the mark for the super-guy. He just ... sounded like Brad Pitt to me, and wasn't in line with what I thought they were trying to portray with the character.
