- A SOLID ADAPTATION.
Tackling the daunting task of adapting three huge graphic novels into a film, "Superman: Doomsday" takes the best elements of "The Death of Superman," "World without a Superman," and "The Return of Superman," and throws them together into a short, 75-minute animated film. Overall, the film delivers. Because of the short running time, the film does feel a bit rushed at times. It would definitely have benefited from an additional thirty or forty minutes to give us breathing room and character development, but what is there is alright, if a little disappointing.
The cast does an overall fine job of voicing the characters. Adam Baldwin is fine as Superman, even though he's a bit weak at Clark Kent (fortunately, he only does one scene as Clark). Anne Heche is a little weak as Lois, while James Marsters is chilling as Lex Luthor. The rest of the cast is solid.
Overall, this is a fine adaptation of the best-selling graphic novel of all time. Fans of "Superman" will find plenty to enjoy here, though others might find it a disappointment.
Movie/DVD Grade: B

- Superman-Doomsday
I liked the movie except for a couple of things. Why couldn't they show more heroes just like in the comic the Death of Superman. I would have liked to see the Blue Beetle, Guy Gardner and the other guys in the movie. Another thing I did not like was the lines on Superman's face.

- Very Original
A very original take on the Death & Return of Superman. It's not the same as the comics, but at the same token the death & return of Superman took place over 10 years ago in the comics. There is nothing wrong with a fresh take on the story, and I like it.

- Not a comic buff but enjoyed it
I liked it and I am not a comic knowledgable so for me I just liked the story and animation and would recommed it to anyone who is a fan of the superheros or superman and to see a different storyline than say from the daily cartoons of the 80's with superman and company.
