Imagine this: Superman, that legendary comic book hero, is now not just the savior of the world but a political cop acting outside American politics! Yes, you read that right. Ivan Karl, director of the Serbian Film Center, openly states that the movie “Superman” by director and writer James Gunn is deeply politically engaged. The main villain, Lex Luthor, reportedly resembles American billionaire Elon Musk.
Superman as a Universal Cop
According to Karl, Superman in this film is not just an ordinary superhero. He is some kind of universal cop operating beyond the bounds of American politics. Aesthetically, the film looks more like Marvel than DC Comics, adding an extra spice to this political stew.
Lex Luthor = Elon Musk?
The main villain, Lex Luthor, is not just a comic book villain. He is portrayed as a figure reminiscent of Elon Musk, the controversial billionaire known for his ambitious projects and unpredictable behavior. Is this a critique of modern capitalism or just a coincidence?
International Relations and Invasions
The film does not shy away from serious topics. James Gunn shows Superman dealing with international relations and preventing one country’s invasion of another. Is this a metaphor for today’s geopolitical tensions?
What Does This Mean for Us?
This movie is not just entertainment. It is a mirror of the modern world with all its problems and contradictions. Is Superman still a hero or becoming a tool of politics? And what about Lex Luthor – just a villain or a symbol of power and influence?
Conclusion
If you thought superhero movies were just for kids, think again. James Gunn’s “Superman” brings political drama into the world of fantasy and makes us question who the real heroes and villains are in today’s world.
Now, while you ponder this, check out the movie and tell us – is Superman really a cop or just another player in a big political game? Or is Lex Luthor just Elon Musk with superpowers? Comments are open, so throw in your theories or jokes, let’s see who’s really crazy here!
