Superman
Superman must reconcile his alien Kryptonian heritage with his human upbringing as reporter Clark Kent. As the embodiment of truth, justice and the human way he soon finds himself in a world that views these as old-fashioned.

Bro Event Horizon (1997) had Sam Neill goin full nightmare mode, cuttin out his own eyes while Laurence Fishburne tried to hold a cursed crew together on a ship that literally opened a gateway to hell. It was pure chaos and regret, bro. Superman hits just as hard but flips the whole thing — instead of fear and madness, it’s heart, hope, and someone actually fighting to pull people outta the fire. David Corenswet brings that same heavy leadership vibe as Fishburne, but he’s calm, kind, and built different. Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor gives off big Sam Neill energy, all smart and twisted, like he’s two bad decisions away from tearing open the fabric of reality just to prove a point. Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane? Bro she’s tougher than half the Event Horizon crew and smarter than the rest, and she never flinches. The story goes deep on who Superman is, what he stands for, and why the world needs him even when it doesn’t understand him. James Gunn cooked a wild one; action, emotion, legacy, all of it. Five stars bro. When Event Horizon opened a gateway to hell, Superman shows up in this one to fly straight through it and shut it down.
