Based in part on the miniseries of the same name, as well as another miniseries, American Alien, and some other recent material, "Superman: Man of Tomorrow" offers a different take on the Man of Steel's early years.
Clark Kent (Darren Criss, ex-Glee) is merely an intern at the Daily Planet, and Lois Lane a graduate student, but things change when a failed rocket launch supervised and underwritten by Lex Luthor (Zachary Quinto) reveals an elaborate scam perpetuated by Luthor, who ends up going to jail. Lois gets her job as an investigative reporter, and, like everyone else, is assigned to find out about a "flying man" who diverted the rocket to avoid disaster.
Unlike past iterations, the Parasite, aka Rudy Jones, is presented as a family man before an unfortunate accident changes his life. A key scene late involving him pays tribute to "Godzilla". You'll see what I mean when you see the movie.
Let's check the trailer:
Rating: A.
