SlashFilm • • general
Key Points:
- James Gunn's "Superman" and the HBO series "Lanterns" have successfully launched the DC Universe, while "Supergirl" was a notable disappointment both critically and commercially.
- "Clayface," a body horror origin story directed by Mike Flanagan and James Watkins, has received generally positive reviews with a 73% Rotten Tomatoes score, outperforming "Supergirl" but not reaching the acclaim of "Superman."
- Critics praised "Clayface" for its unique tone and flexibility within the DC Universe, highlighting Tom Rhys Harries' performance and the film's departure from typical superhero fare, though some criticized its character development and pacing.
- Despite mixed reviews, "Clayface" is seen as a promising experiment in diversifying the DC Universe's storytelling styles, potentially revitalizing interest after "Supergirl's" failure.
- "Superman" remains the most successful DC Universe project to date, both critically and financially, with "Clayface" unlikely to surpass it but still offering a hopeful sign for the franchise's future.
