FIRST 42:00: Spoiler-Free Review with our See It/Skip It Verdict
AFTER 42:00: Full Spoiler Review

It’s another edition of See It or Skip It and this time Ian is joined by Stew from SWO Productions as they leap headfirst into Superman (2025) — James Gunn’s bold reboot of the Man of Steel and the first official flight in the new DC Universe.

But can a new Clark Kent make us believe a man can fly again? Ian and Stew suit up to explore whether this fresh take brings truth, justice, and cinematic clarity—or if it’s just another reboot weighed down by origin story fatigue.

Does Superman (2025) soar with the charm and optimism fans have been craving, or does it buckle under the pressure of launching an entire universe? The lads dig into David Corenswet’s debut as the Last Son of Krypton, the tone shift from past incarnations, and whether Gunn balances heroism with humanity.

What should a Superman film offer in a post-Snyder world? Are we getting a genuine symbol of hope—or just another cape in a crowd of cinematic spandex?

All this and more in this week’s See It or Skip It review of Superman (2025)—and of course, Ian and Stew will let you know if you should SEE IT or SKIP IT.
