False. Bad casting of so many characters. (His parents? Terrible choices!) Too many characters that were unnecessary. Bad story. Mid cinematography. Even the music was lame.

His parents felt like 2 people I would actually stumble across in Kansas, so I think that casting was pretty good. And yeah it would have been nice to have more characters fleshed out (like Hawkgirl), but this is also only the first chapter in an entire universe. I’m sure the side characters will become more fleshed out as we go. I thought it benefited the movie to have these extra characters, because this is supposed to be a universe where superheroes have been around for hundreds of years

What was the blonde girl with the big fake boobs?! Why beck bennett?! And the parents were fat dumb and slow—a horrible Kansas stereotype.

It makes sense that Superman isn’t the only superhero in Metropolis, especially when that’s the main hub for superheroes in the comics. This movie is essentially the DC comics but on the big screen. This movie is the equivalent of opening a random Superman comic issue and jumping right in, which is why we dive right into the action with a world with lots of pre-established locations and characters

But some of them felt silly. Nathan Fillion was awful casting. Mr Terrific had a ton of screen time but zero explanation and I’m not even sure what his powers are. And crypto?! Why so much dog time???

I never saw the parents as dumb and slow. I’m from Missouri, and they felt to me like the typical older farmer grandparents I know

The scene with the speakerphone? Making fun of them. Not cool. Felt almost political.
