A sequel, Reign of the Supermen, was released on January 15, 2019. Released on July 24, 2018, the film received a limited theatrical release on January 13, 2019. It is the 33rd film in the DC Universe Animated Original Movies and the eleventh film of the DC Animated Movie Universe. It is based on the comic book storyline of the same name, and the second animated adaptation to chronicle the battle between Superman and Doomsday. Would recommend.The Death of Superman is a 2018 American animated superhero film produced by Warner Bros. I hope it gets the attention it deserves along with the director and Last Shift. I was really excited about this reimagining, and while it didn't hit exactly what I wanted it to be, it was still successful in its own right. There was one stand out performance from a woman playing a prostitute that is to be of note. The main girl did a fine job, but was particularly successful in scenes of high intensity emotion. The acting was decent across the board, if not a little mediocre. The scenery, props, lighting, makeup and effects were all very cool. As far as everything else goes, I thought it was generally successful. There were for sure some cool moments involving the breaking of appendages and gnarly movie make up, but even then, star-faced Hellraiser guy looked pretty silly. Something about Malum just wasn't quite as spooky as I wanted it to be and it definitely relied on jump scares. ![]() I think that ended up being a positive and a negative aspect because while Malum was "aesthetically superior", something about the grittiness of last shift with the picture quality and special effects almost made it a little bit more real, down to earth and therefore creepier. As far as the budget goes, the picture quality was great in this and vastly improved from Last Shift. Now, with all that said, at its foundation this is still an entertaining, intriguing story regardless and they did a good job at really sticking to its original core. However, as quickly as it took up for the slack in the story, it added another element specifically regarding the main girl and her involvement that almost negated its prior clarity and was left open ended and me scratching my head. Right out the gate Malum does a great job at giving a little bit more background on the characters and their story, making it feel like a more well-rounded throughline with a cohesive and concise point. Two of my main criticisms with Last Shift was the backstory/elaboration on plot and the budget. While both had their own pros and cons, I think at the end of the day I personally liked Last Shift better. Being a fan of its predecessor, Last Shift, inevitable parallels and comparisons will be made. It was fun, scary and successful as a stand alone. I want to preface this review with the fact that I had a good time with this movie.
