The New Gods

About This Movie

So, 'The New Gods' dives into Jack Kirby's ambitious Fourth World saga, which is a fascinating exploration of comic book mythology. It's interesting how it unfolds, giving a real sense of Kirby's vision for characters like Darkseid and the entire Apokolips setting. The pacing feels a bit like a classic documentary, taking its time to really let you soak in the lore and artistic style. The atmosphere is both nostalgic and somewhat reverent, very much honoring Kirby's influence on the DC Universe. A lot of the practical effects and artwork in the presentation stand out, which is cool since they really reflect that era's comic art. It’s definitely a solid piece for those who appreciate the deeper narratives behind comic book characters.
