James Gunn’s ‘Superman’ is a Rocking Delight – CNET
a chance to say, “I love what you do, Lois,” to himself? Is the Lex Luthor character an exaggerated metaphor for Gunn’s own internal struggles with jealousy and power in Hollywood? I like to think so.Maybe I’m reaching, but I don’t think so. James Gunn’s Superman isn’t just a superhero movie; it’s a meditation on identity, success, and the personal sacrifices that come with it. It’s a reminder that even the most powerful among us grapple with demons, both internal and external.So, Marvel, your move. DC Studios under James Gunn’s leadership isn’t just playing catch-up; they’re daring you to step outside the box and take risks. Superman isn’t just a character in tights; he’s a symbol of rebellion, subversion, and ultimately, hope. And if James Gunn’s take on the Man of Steel is any indication, there’s a bright and punk rock future ahead for superhero cinema.
