I had no idea this was a thing until we saw the trailer ahead of Ghostbusters. Looks to be a lot of fun.

Honestly looks better than most of DC's output over the last several years.

Looks cute. My kids will want to watch it and that’ll give me an excuse to watch it too.

Will Supergirl be riding Comet cowboy-style like she did in the comics?

Not sure if I’ll see this in the theater, but it looks fun. I’ll for sure watch it on HBO Max.

I just got back from seeing it. I quite liked it. Fun and very charming movie with lots of laughs. Johnson and Hart were both very funny. Keanu Reeves role was small, but he was pretty funny as Batman.
Not much to analyze. Good movie to take the entire family to IMO or just relax and have a good time.
There are two post credit scenes. Both are humorous. One features a cameo from someone in an upcoming DC movie. It's pretty amusing.
AMC also gave out a free comic. But I had to ask for it as I read it was being given out this weekend.

This was pretty cool. Johnson dressed up as Krypto and surprised a family who was looking to adopt a pet.

This was a fun movie. Focused on several characters we don't see in DC media a lot, so that was nice.

One of the best surprises of the whole year for me - I was rather "meh" about the trailers that came out for this, but this is a really fun animated movie, with lots of jokes for die-hard DC fans and perhaps the best Superman we've seen since on screen since Man of Steel (including a few hints of John Williams' iconic score in the film). I thought it was a blast, and hope there's a sequel.

Pretty shocked at how much I liked this one. It was a really pleasant surprise. I think the weakest part of the movie was actually Dwayne Johnson. He just didn't have the nuance of the rest of the cast. Things felt more forced with him. Someone with more comedic chops or more layers to his voice could have added a lot more to the film, but it was still a lot of fun.

Took the kids to see this one. I thought it was a very mediocre kids movie spackled over with a bunch of i.p. to make it seem better than it actually was. Kate McKinnon was the highlight for me. The kids liked it, but were not overly enthusiastic. But then my 8 year old doesn't really care about superheroes and a lot of stuff went over the head of the 4 year old.
