The Last Son Of Krypton was fundamentally an introduction before the Superman super-hero television series premiered. Therefore because you'd imagine this is an origins story, from Krypton to be able to Smallville to Metropolis.
Sadly this is only an hour long and that's a lot of content to get into 60 minutes! Regardless they do a astonishingly good job as do the tone of voice actors who would go on to get regulars in the DC animated universe.
With an introduction to the rivalry with Lex Luthor to Braniacs part in the homeworlds demise this does mark every box even if it can feel a tad in haste.
This feel good 60 minutes is a must for fans of the animated television series and makes a good standalone effort for fans on the characters as well.
Good job.
The Good:
Malcolm McDowell
Origin tale is well done
The Bad:
A lttle bit "Too" Warner Brothers
Raced
Things I Learnt Using this Movie:
Kryptonian dress impression was awful
Colonel Sanders flies coach

This particular feature length video discharge is actually a re-cutting of the a few part pilot for the new superman series produced by Warner Bros. using mostly Japoneses animation talent. The initial re-tells the familiar source story of the Last Son of Krypton, while introducing two classic DC villains (Brainiac and Lex Luthor) and giving us any feisty new Lois Lane.
The look very 50s comedian bookish and kind of sci-fi retro. Metropolis looks like just what TV and the movies were predicting for the year 2000: an urban landscape of giant buildings, elevated highways, high-speed commuter trains, all quite ultra-modern and glossy, and yet clean, efficient and recognizable. The color palette is very bright and full of primary colorings, giving the cartoon the Sunday supplement feel. The biggest complaint relates to a slightly clumsy look to the character movement, and even this is really small. It's a big step up via Superfriends.
The show carries a good look, great tales and lots of superhero action, and also Clark Kent himself (as voiced by Tim Daly) is wryly amusing and also stubbornly heroic in the face of sometimes tough choices. I observed this pilot and agreed upon on for the run in the show. Recommended.
