Superman is often viewed as an old-fashioned hero, but did James Gunn’s new ‘Superman’ film manage to reboot the character for the modern world?

James Gunn's Superman movie swooped into theaters Friday, offering thrilling battles, big-hearted heroes and an amusingly untrained canine sidekick. You might want to see the superhero epic if you're into other films written and directed by Gunn (such as Suicide Squad and Guardians of the Galaxy) or want to catch the cinematic start to the new DC Universe.
