Plots(1)
Animated feature following the caped hero adapted from Geoff Johns' 'Superman: Brainiac' comic books. With the help of his cousin Supergirl (Molly C. Quinn), Superman (voice of Matt Bomer) goes up against extraterrestrial villain Brainiac (John Noble), who has been wreaking havoc across the universe, stealing cities and destroying planets, including the hero's home Krypton. With Brainiac now on Earth, Superman does all he can to prevent it, and its people, from meeting the same fate. (Warner Bros. Home Entertainment)

Animation at a decent level, but ultimately nothing special. A story about Superman and how he can save the world. Hm, I feel like even this is nothing new. What the film must be praised for is the fact that it is grittier than classic mainstream comics and there is blood spraying around. Of course, that doesn't save the script, which is very transparent and heavily relies on the assumption that you know the mythology and it will tell you something. I do know the mythology but it definitely didn't really touch me.

A thoroughly enjoyable film based on the comic book "Superman: Brainiac." This is the second animated film where Supergirl gets a lot of space. We get her origin in Superman/Batman: Apocalypse and here it's all about a fast flawless ride.
