Superman : Doomsday (2007)

Something fell to earth thousands of years before Ma Kent’s perfect son, but it remained trapped. When it is finally released it's not surprisingly mad as hell. Based on The Death of Superman storyline from the comics, this is Supes at his less than infallible best.
James Marsters is a great Lex Luthor. Fans may mourn the absence of Tim Daly, but I think Adam Baldwin did a fantastic job as the man in tights; in fact, the voice casting is top class. As is the animation; it's full of action, violence (people die) and genuine affecting emotion. Highly recommended.
