        One of the better Superman releases I've seen. Surprised to see The Elite in a movie, even an animated one, but they were great. Maybe in terms of the morality it explores, Superman vs. The Elite and I are not always on the same page, but at least it bothers to explore it.

        As far as Superman Animated movies go this is one of the best even though yet again its very dull most of the time, The story was good and some of the action scenes were pretty fun but unlike The Batman animated films it always feels like there's something missing, Maybe it's because Superman is DC's Captain America (Dull and more botherd about following rules than doing what needs to be done)

        It's unfortunate that the art style doesn't fit appropriately with the sophistication of the story because in all honesty, this movie embodies what it is to be "Superman" better than any other animated film featuring the character. The theme of idealism against the harshness of reality, of overcoming the means to an end with the unwavering hope in principle and morality. This movie's plot defines Clark's character and that's where it really shines. Unfortunately, there's just something unappealing and generally comical in the presentation of "The Elite" (design & voice acting), this combined with the juvenile art style takes away from the dark themes and ideas presented. Of course, the fight scenes and animation is still quite stellar. The explosive battles are all very fluid and full of dynamism. I think in the wake of Batman's popularity and that of vigilantes or dark heroes alike, this movie plays a pivotal role in reminding us that it's just as important to dream and strive for ideals.

        Superman vs. The Elite is a pretty good little dc animation. It isn't the best we've seen from them, but it definitely isn't the worst. I really liked the characters that made up the Elite, and the story was interesting and engaging. That's normally how I judge these type of movies. If they keep my attention the whole time, they're normally pretty good. The bad ones always lose me about half way through. This is worth a look if you're into Superman or superhero movies in general. There's some nice social commentary going on and also some great, dark themes at play as well. This likely won't be your favorite Superman animation, but it should be enough to merit a watch.
