Superman - The Last Son of Krypton Reviews:
Last Son of Krypton 
2007-08-31 - My son loved the movie. It gave him the background on what happened to Krypton and Superman's escape from Krypton as a baby. Questions he's asked me about but that I couldn't remember the answers to from my childhood.
Best Superman origin movie
2006-08-06 - I saw this movie a few years ago. It is the best movie I've seen dealing with Superman's origins. In fact, it's even better than most of the live-action Superman movies. I definitely recommend this.
Superman the last son of krypton is a great video!
2006-07-07 - Superman the last son of Kryton is a great video!This is the first 90 minute movie to the new Superman: The animated series by Bruce Timm and Warner Bros. This animted series series re-introduces Clark Kent/Superman, Martha Kent, Jonanathan Kent, Lana Lang, Lois Lane, and Lex Luther. A+
Best Superman Filmed Material I've Seen
2004-11-12 - Although the DC live-action adaptations have generally lagged well behind the Marvel adaptations, in the animation field DC wins hands-down. "Superman: Last Son Of Krypton", my personal favorite of the 'movie/tv' chronicles of the Man Of Steel is a stellar example of this. Like the Batman animated material, the animated Superman has admittedly been simplified and, to a lesser degree than Batman, toned down for the younger audience, but remains a faithful, spirit-capturing translation of the epic Superman comics. Unique animation style, tremendous scenes combining action and drama magnificently (including the legendary 'airplane-save' scene), and some of storytelling's alltime best characters add up to a great movie, one that, in my opinion, surpasses the ongoing animated series that followed it. The voice actors aren't who I would have picked for the parts - they sound utterly nothing like the characters I hear when I read the books, although admittedly that's a pretty subjective standard to judge on, with probably almost everybody who reads a tale in comic book format, novel format, or whatever hearing the voices differently - but they do indeed turn in good performances and prove worthy interpretors of their parts. Highly recommended for everybody; suitable for tots but DEFINATELY not a 'kids-only' picture; great stuff, overall almost on par with the best Superman comics.
Left me wanting to see more
2004-08-26 - What a great episode to open one of the best animated superhero runs!!!. A heartbreaking kryptonian origin, the formative years, and Superman's first appearance gave the series the best kick-off possible. The episode is well paced, the plot is engaging and the music befits the charachter.
