It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
Freeman
This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

If you are a massive fan of Superman you have come to the right place. This cartoon is like an animated version of Smallville and The Man of steel (which I actually like).This show had great art style, voice acting, and character designs. I even have a comic of this series somewhere at home.My favorite villains of the show were Metallo, Brainiac, The Unity, Lex Luthor and Luminous. My favorite episodes are My Girl, The Flash episode, The demon reborn, The green lantern episode, little-lost girl, new kids in town and The last episode of the series.

I remember this came out around the same time as Batman the Animated Series started to end. Unlike Batman the Animated Series, Superman the Animated Series started with his origin. Pretty much everyone knows his origin basically is Moses with aliens. Well it's not on par with the Batman cartoons it still has its own finesse and some good moments at times. The voice work is also pretty good and Clancy Brown as Lex Luthor is real good. It even does a little cross over on the 3rd season with Batman called world's finest. Also at the end of the Superman cartoons I was surprised what happened to him. Especially how the people thought of Superman after all of that.

A few years ago one of the biggest stories in mainstream media was that, mysteriously, cats had replaced dogs worldwide as the most popular pet...? At about the same time someone else noticed that Batman had replaced Superman, similarly, for the #1 spot. Explanation? (Not for the dog/cat thing, for that, please see my review of the Cat in the Internet Pet Database). Supe is very hard to dramatize, once you get past the origins. He never lies. His virtue is never in doubt. Not much can hurt him, so writers have spent almost 7 decades inventing baddies who can. Batman, on the other hand, is more fun than a barrel of hammers. He is a borderline psychotic. He has no superpowers yet somehow gets invited to JLA roasts? Even his enemies (Joker and Harley) are more fun. The point of this review is that Batman was a tough act to follow for Dini and crew, and the production team tries hard but never quite makes it work. No foul. no blame. But the magic is scarce. And frankly I have seen enough Lex Luthor to last a lifetime. (In his own way, he is as predictable and boring as Supe). In the Golden Age of comics (yes they were called "comics" then) the DC people would often do a full issue stuffed with an "imaginary" story just to break the bounds. Of course, when you do an imaginary riff on something which is imaginary to start with, well, nothing good comes of that. With hindsight, one has to silently applaud the creators of both LOIS AND CLARK and the waka-doo (but fun) SMALLVILLE for trying to re-imagine this story for TV, and doing a pretty goshdarned good job of it.

When I was younger I used to watch this occasionally because it was the same good animation as Batman: The Animated Series, and it was one of the most famous super heroes in a cartoon. It began with baby Clark Kent dropped from the sky to a farm. It was sent by his parents from a distant planet. When Clark grows up on his farm as a teenager he learns of his super powers, he is obviously overjoyed to learn that he could fly. Then we skipped to many years later when he is an adult and flying with his red and blue costume to rescue people. We also meet the hateful and sometimes annoying Lex Luthor who secretly schemes to try and get rid of his enemy. Superman had some good enemies besides Lex, the Toyman, a purple guy who could suck powers out of Superman and many more. The kids will like this!
