Superman’ Review: A Charming but Chaotic Attempt to Restart the DCU with Heart — and a Lot of Noise

  James Gunn’s   Superman   had one job — to kickstart a brand-new DC Universe with clarity, confidence, and purpose. What we got instead is a quirky, overstuffed spectacle that bounces between heartfelt sincerity and Saturday morning cartoon mayhem, never quite settling into a rhythm strong enough to lift this hero off the ground. On paper, it all sounds promising:   Superman   skips the tired origin story and dives straight into Clark Kent’s third year as Earth’s protector. David Corenswet brings a sincere, wide-eyed charm to the role — equal parts Boy Scout and alien outcast — while Rachel Brosnahan’s Lois Lane is, without a doubt, the best we’ve ever seen on screen. Their chemistry crackles, especially in the film’s most grounded scene: a sharp interview that pits Lois’ hard-nosed journalism against Superman’s unwavering optimism. In that moment, you can almost feel the movie it   could   have been — thoughtful, conflicted, real. Unfortunately, tho...

Cristiano Ronaldo Sends Message of Peace to Donald Trump with Signed Jersey

In a stunning fusion of sports and diplomacy, football icon Cristiano Ronaldo has made global headlines — not for a goal, but for a gesture. Donald Trump receives a shirt signed by Cristiano Ronaldo from the President of the European Council. Amid escalating tensions between Israel and Iran, and growing speculation of U.S. involvement, Ronaldo sent U.S. President Donald Trump a signed Portugal jersey. But what truly caught the world's attention wasn’t the signature — it was the message inscribed within: “Playing for peace.” The jersey was hand-delivered by European Council President António Costa during the G7 Summit in Canada, just before Trump abruptly exited following disagreements on the joint statement addressing the Middle East crisis. Trump posed for a photo with the jersey, standing next to Costa, but the moment raised eyebrows. The stark contrast between Trump’s recent hawkish rhetoric and Ronaldo’s subtle but powerful call for peace underscored the surreal nature of the e...
