Superman (2025) First Reviews Out

As soon as the embargo got lifted, social media platforms started flooding with rave reviews. Ahead of its much-anticipated India release, David Corenswet-starrer Superman (2025) opened to positive reviews from critics and fans who got the special opportunity to watch the film during its screenings.

Taking to Twitter (now 'X'), one of the users wrote, "#Superman perfectly understands what it means to be human. It's a powerful and promising start to the new DCU.

The film moves you by revealing the heart behind the cape.

David is phenomenal but a huge highlight is how Nicholas Hoult delivers a phenomenal Lex Luthor - cold, charismatic, and menacing - one of the best villains DC has EVER brought to the screen.

The score and sound design are out of this world. You feel every note; every impact makes you soar inside." Another user tweeted, "#Superman was my most anticipated film of the year & I left the theater with a smile on my face

It's possibly the most comic book-y live action comic book film ever. It fully leans into the wacky sci-fi. It really feels like a comic book or Justice League Unlimited on screen."

The film follows the 'Man of Steel' Superman's journey to reconcile his alien heritage with his adoptive human family.
