Superman review
In this episode we talk about what is no doubt the most anticipated movie of 2025, James Gunn’s “Superman.” Gunn is more known for his quirky movies with unusual characters engaged in constant frenetic action. This time he takes on the most well-known superhero, the first son of Krypton. No small feat. Can he make everyone with their own idea of who they think Superman should be happy? In this latest Superman movie, Superman (David Corenswet) has been protecting Earth for a few years along with working at the Daily Planet with Lois Lane (Rachel Brosnahan.) In the meantime, his arch nemesis Lex Luthor (Nicholas Hoult) is hatching plans with the government to rationalize taking Superman out. Superman just might need all the help he can get and he might get that from the Justice Gang with Green Lantern, Mr. Terrific and Hawk Girl. Also, we can’t forget Superman’s furry friend, Krypto. Can Superman survive what Lex and the government got coming for him? Is it worth going to the theater to find out? All will be revealed in this episode of Movies Merica. “Superman” also stars Frank Grillo, Alan Tudyk, Maria Gabriela de Faria, Sara Sampaio, Dinesh Thyagarajan, Wendell Pierce, Michael Ian Black, Beck Bennett, Skyler Gisondo and Mikaela Hoover.
Gran Turismo review
Are you bummed that there isn’t a Top Gun: Maverick this year? I just might have some good news for you. You may find that Gran Turismo meets your Top Gun: Maverick needs. Just like Maverick, we have a driven guy that has an immense talent in this movie named Jann Mardenborough. He’s excellent at the auto racing simulator Gran Turismo but wants to be a real race car driver. A GT Academy is created to give gamer drivers like him a chance to auto race for real. No reset buttons. Just your life ending if you screw up just a little bit, just like in a fighter jet. Jann has to beat other gamer drivers and real professional drivers with years of real-life experience. Also, he doesn’t want to prove his doubters correct by failing. Can he hang without getting himself killed? Is this high-octane, kinetic, frenetic racing action drama worth you racing to the theater? Check out my spoiler-free review here to find out. Gran Turismo is directed by Neill Blomkamp and stars Archie Madekwe, David Harbour, Orlando Bloom, Djimon Hounsou, Geri Horner, Takehiro Hira, Darren Barnet, Josha Stradowski, Daniel Puig, Maeve Courtier-Lily, Pepe Barroso, Niall McShea, Nikhil Parmar, Thomas Kretschmann.

The Flash review
It’s been almost 10 years since this movie was announced and finally ‘The Flash’ is here. It’s the latest DCEU entry and one of the last in the soon-to-be irrelevant DCEU. ‘The Flash’ stars Ezra Miller as Barry Allen/The Flash and in this move you get two Barry Allens. That’s thanks to the multiverse aspect of this movie. Barry feels compelled to try to save his mother by going back in time to stop her murder. However, this “all heart and no brains” idea predictably goes sideways. As a result, he meets his younger self and Michael Keaton’s Batman and Supergirl. He’s going to need all of them to make it through this, or does he? Andy Muschietti, director of the ‘It’ movies, helms this solo Flash movie. Co-starring Ben Affleck, Michael Shannon, Ron Livingston and Maribel Verdu. Check out this review to get the in-depth knowledge about this latest superhero flick.
