This animated version of the Death of Superman story is just as good as the comics. That is to say, not very good at all. The best selling comic of all time is also possibly one of the worst comic book/Superhero story arcs of all time, to the 2007 animated film's credit, they left a lot of the really rubbish stuff out. That said, the very few good elements of the comics are also missing and the opportunity to improve on the story, which were many, were totally missed. It just feels like a really lazy short animated film for people who are too lazy to read the comics and probably aren't all that interested anyway. With the obvious lack of passion I do wonder what the point was? Stick to the Batman animations.
