Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story Reviews

A heartfelt Documentary of a man who rose to the level of his cinematic counterpart by advocating for the paralyzed and rescuing the tears from your eyes.

Few actors have been able to reach the heights of being looked at as more than the character/characters they’ve portrayed. Reeve is one of those few. He is not only many people’s “Superman” but his story of perseverance in the struggles of his tragedy elevated him to heroic. Be prepared to shed more than a few tears as his story is shared by his family and those that were lucky to call themselves colleagues.

He really did make us believe a man could fly.

9/10

What a lovely insight on the man behind the icon and the people in his world and left without him. I admired that it examined his strengths yes but pulled down the rose colored glasses a bit to show his weakness and mistakes showing a whole man

7.5/10

Fuck that made me cry a whole lot

I’m broken

I’m pretty sure a documentary has never made me cry, until this one. It’s a beautiful, heartfelt and emotional documentary that really makes you feel for Chris, and god.. seeing both Christ and Robin together made me tear up, both were amazing, amazing people. I’ll miss them.

Absolutely incredible

Extremely humanizing view of the man who played Superman in an industry altering debut. We often forget that actors are normal people who have struggles. Extremely inspiring but made me cry 😭.

Powerful

Everyone should see this film. It’s a movie for Superman fans, but more than that, it’s a movie for human beings. Heartbreaking, inspirational, and needed. Especially now.

I cried, a lot.

Excellent movie. I loved Christopher Reeves growing up. I had the biggest crush on him. He is still my one and only Superman but even more he will always be a great human. Robin Williams and Dana Reeves were also just fantastic people as well.

Great!!! If you’re a Superman fan this is for you

A Hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles.

Such a story to watch.
Very emotional.
Interesting documentary
8/10
