I loved it. After all the boring Marvel stuff I thought I was totally done with superhero movies. The way it began was so odd it grabbed my interest straight away and Superman had more personality than in all the movies he’d ever done while still being a goodie-two-shoes nerd.

Yeah, it's a movie that starts when it needs to and concludes well. Not that it's Superman's only leg up on the competition, but it's a shame that's the kind of thing that sets movies apart nowadays.

Also, Gunn has said he's not doing a Superman or Batman origin story, because we already know those. So I hope that his Batman is good enough to end up on your list, too!
