I wanted to like it, but it was pretty rough. And aside from a few cheap jumps, wasn't scary.

Maybe there's just an overload of superheroes and alien do-gooders in my movies lately, but it's a fun time watching what happens when things go the wrong direction.

This one seems to divide opinion. It must have found me in a good mood, because I rather enjoyed it. I liked the premise and the somewhat bleak execution of it, and there was something quite satisfying about some of the gory moments. I suspect I won't feel a great urge to go back to it, and I don't think it would withstand much scrutiny, but I enjoyed the diversion and the take on the Superman story that it brought.

Competently made, but the "Evil Superman" premise ironically undermines the horror by making the villain too powerful. Every kill consists of Brightburn pointlessly toying with his victims for the whole scene since he can vaporize anyone in an instant.

I thought this was a lot of fun. Obviously, there's not a whole lot to the story, but it's mainly about creating suspenseful and scary moments, and I think it succeeds in that. This movie is basically the nightmare Batman had about what Superman could become in BvS, and that's why I will always defend that Batman was justified in his actions in that movie.

Brightburn's biggest flaw is it's lack of depth. It fails to provide anything meaningful to its a characters, and doesn't provide much exposition to exist. Instead of telling a interesting arch, or presenting fresh ideas, it shrinks to being a supervillain torture porn feature. Admittedly, it does it well, with some good effects and gore, not to mention a weird atmosphere, but that can't be its backbone. I appreciate for providing a interesting synopsis, but it hardly attempts it.

I understand the hate, but I really liked how it skipped over the origin story because we have already seen it in multiple Superman movies. It has some pretty surprising gore and I love the what if Superman was bad plot.

It's not enough to have a cool premise. For a movie about a supernatural killer boy I expected a few turns here and there. This was more of a straight toss of the ball down a straight corridor.

Concept is brilliant. I just wholly hate "how" Brandon became the villain. It is in a fashion that completely robs him of any agency to his actions. Therefore he doesn't feel _any_ consequence for his actions and neither do I as a viewer.

Great concept, wasted opportunity. What starts as an intriguing idea is wasted because it goes unnecessarily full gore-horror mode and takes itself way too seriously, sucking the fun out of this. The story is also a little directionless; I mean there's not much you can do if Superman is not on our side, right? So they kinda paint themselves into a corner and it doesn't have a satisfying ending which only adds to the issues that this had.

Completely baffled by the lack of love for this. Sure, it's too short and slight and doesn't explore its themes in any meaningful way, but in an era of severely overlong and over-indulgent superhero movies, this mean, nasty, no holds barred approach to the Superman myth had me on the edge of my seat. Fantastic work by the SFX team as well. How did they manage to make this look so good on a budget of 6 million dollars? Fully onboard with the idea of a sequel.

"Dude, what if we wrote a slasher movie, but the killer is like evil Superman as a kid, and also there's this other plot line that's really convenient and doesn't make sense, where his parents can't decide if they know he's a weird alien or not, and also we never combine the two or go anywhere with either of them, and it's really trashy and silly, but takes itself super seriously?" "Duuuude....duhuhuhuuude!" The ending was pretty cool, though. Not that it mattered. Also liked the jaw thing. :)

I'm sure I'll sound pretty much like everyone else here, but the general consensus is that "Brightburn" has an intriguing new spin on the Superman story, but botches the execution horribly. The chief problem here is that for a movie that spends a good half of its runtime setting up this evil version of Superman, but it fails to convince the audience that the evil origin is believable--even the traditional Superman was more believable, and that's a low bar to miss.

A nice little gory movie. Everybody seems to be talking about that eye, but I was much more freaked out by the jaw scene. Seat belts people, that's why we wear them! I think I would have liked it more if I hadn't just been reading The Boys, which takes a somewhat similar concept, but really runs with it. But if they get around to making Evil!Aquaman and Evil!WonderWoman, my butt will be in the seat to watch them.

A film with serious potential settles for rendering a flipped concept into a traditional slasher film with new elements. Well acted by Jackson Dunn the film just added one too many clichés which ultimately hurt the originality factor it had going. Aside from potential this film didn't really do anything unconventional and while still entertaining did not wow me like I was expecting. Squandered opportunity like many good ideas that have come before it with poor execution.

I'm not a fan of science fiction and then blending it with horror But this movie does that in a very effective way they market it as Super Hero Horror But I don't see it that way Super Villain Horror maybe....Not necessarily scary gross out horror but kept me guessing and on the edge of my seat

Great premise, but the execution is lacking.

Really hoped for more here. Cool idea but they don't really go anywhere with it.
