[B]Superman[/B].  James Gunn did the Guardians movies so has some talent for weaving in humor.  He does that here, often via the dog, Krypto but also Jimmy Olson.  David Corenswet as Superman is just ok.  Rachel Brosnahan is terrific and beautiful as Lois.  Nick Hoult is always good and makes a fantastic Lex Luthor.  There's a lot in here as it's meant to be a foundational movie for the new DCU.  While I tire of the brilliant evil billionaire as the bad guy trope in movies, Lex is the OG for that.  Supes is a bit more human here, maybe a bit soft really.  Dealing with some emotional baggage.  It reminds me slightly of Smallville in that way, except that Corenswet is no Tom Welling.  Overall it is a good fun movie, and the political elements are mild and overblown on social media.  Much better than the Zach Snyder stuff.

Side note, at the very end there is a quick scene with Milly Alcock as Supergirl.  Very promising.  Great casting and the character has loads of potential to be a lot of fun.
