Superman: A Disturbing Eye-Opening Experience
The latest Superman reboot under James Gunn introduces a shocking trend of eye violence that may unsettle many viewers. From Hawkgirl's mace getting stuck in a kaiju's eye to Superman facing a nauseating attack on his own eyes, the film pushes boundaries in a way that feels unnecessary. > "All of this is to say: Gunn, next time you make a movie, avoid the eyes, yeah?" While the action sequences are intense and well-crafted, the graphic nature of eye injuries detracts from the superhero experience. - The film succeeds in many areas, yet it leaves a lingering discomfort. - Perhaps a little less focus on ocular horror could enhance the overall enjoyment. In a landscape of superhero films, this Superman stands out, but not always for the right reasons. For those with a phobia of eyes, this movie might be a hard pass.
