Superman (2025): parents' guide

Near-constant superhero combat: punching, laser blasts, a giant monster and an invading army, with buildings collapsing and civilian deaths implied. A villain shoots an unarmed man at close range, Superman is shown bloody and badly hurt, and captives are tortured in a secret prison.

One review counted more than ten s-word variations, plus "goddamn," "Jesus Christ" and other uses of God's name, "ass," "asshole," "bitch," "son of a bitch," "piss" and "damn." Conjured hands make a rude gesture. No f-words were reported.

Clark and Lois share several passionate kisses and mention "hooking up." A running joke has Lex accusing Superman of keeping a harem, Jimmy Olsen draws flirting women, and one brief scene implies women are sex workers. No nudity.

Perry White chews an unlit cigar throughout. There's a joke that Earth's sun keeps Kryptonians from getting drunk, a line about partying on planets where you can, and one character briefly staggers in as if drunk.

A dimensional rift swallowing parts of the city, a giant monster attack, creepy nanotech that a hero vomits up, a baby in peril and the close-range shooting of a hostage are all intense for younger kids.
