I recently watched James Gunn’s Superman in cinema. I was not expecting much, but it surprised me. This movie is not just about action or flying scenes. It is about hope, kindness, and doing the right thing.
If you are in Pakistan and thinking about watching it, this blog will help. I am not a film expert. I am just a normal viewer like you.
A New Superman With a Big Heart

This Superman is not like the old ones. He is not angry or serious all the time. He is kind, soft, and wants to help people.
David Corenswet plays Superman. He looks strong, but more than that, he looks human. He smiles, he thinks, he cares. I really liked that.
You feel connected to him, like he could be a real person in today’s world.
The Story Is Easy to Follow
The movie is not confusing. You don’t need to watch any old Superman films to understand this one.
Clark Kent works as a reporter at the Daily Planet. At the same time, he is Superman. He hides his identity but keeps saving people when they are in danger.
The villain is Lex Luthor, played by Nicholas Hoult. He is cold and smart. He doesn’t scream or shout. He plans everything. That makes him more dangerous.
Some other DC heroes also appear, like Hawkgirl and Green Lantern. But they don’t take the spotlight away. This is still Superman’s story.
Things I Liked the Most
One of my favorite things was Lois Lane. Rachel Brosnahan played her very well. She is bold and funny. She doesn’t act like she needs to be saved. She is strong on her own.

The second thing I liked was the message of hope. These days, many superhero movies are dark or negative. This one feels light and warm. You leave the cinema feeling happy.
Also, this movie is clean. There is no bad language or adult scenes. Families in Pakistan can easily watch it together.
Watching It in a Pakistani Cinema
Watching this film in a Pakistani cinema was a good experience. People clapped at some parts. Some even cheered when Superman saved the day.
It’s a good film to enjoy on a big screen. The flying scenes, the action, and the music all feel better with a good sound system.
If you can, watch it in cinema. Don’t wait for it to come on mobile or laptop.
What James Gunn Did Right
James Gunn gave us a fresh Superman. Not the angry hero or the god-like figure. Just a good man trying to help.
Superman does not talk too much in this film. He listens, he cares, and he helps. That is what makes him powerful.
In a world full of noise and problems, this kind of hero is nice to watch.
Is This the Best Superman?
For me, yes. I liked this version more than the past ones.
Henry Cavill was great too, but his films were very serious. This one has more emotion, more heart.
It is not just about power. It is about being good even when the world is not.
What I Didn’t Like
No movie is perfect. This one also had some small issues.
- Some scenes were a bit slow
- Side heroes didn’t get much time
- Action could have been more exciting
But these things are not too important. The story and characters are strong enough.
Is There a Sequel Coming?

Yes. The film clearly shows that this is the start of a new DC Universe.
There are small hints about what will happen next. So more Superman films will come, and I am excited to watch them.
