So Powerful… SUPER/MAN The CHRISTOPHER REEVE Story - Out of the Theater REACTION

- Christopher Reeve was so much more than just Superman.
Today October 10th marked 20 Years to the day since the world lost Christopher Reeve. This documentary is about a Super Man who played Superman and it left me wildly introspective about the legacy we leave behind. About the importance of heroes both Fictional and real. And about how we affect those around us in profound and surprising ways.
I love Clark Kent, I Love Superman; I didn’t know how much this would make me love Christopher Reeve. What an experience of a film. So happy DC Studios and Warner Bros. were able to secure a full theatrical release so people could see this film with others, sharing this kind of experience on the big screen was cathartic and beautiful.
Hug your loved ones, and tell them how much they mean to you. Appreciate, everything.

Gentle reminder for people to get out and vote, it’s important to advocate for what you care about, using your voice matters. This doc really reminded me of that, we must lookout for one another.
Coy rocking the Superman spit-curl for the review!
No one will believe it, but completely wind based/unplanned haha
Sir, it's fantastic that you're part of the comic book community and loudly shining a light on this art form. Ya just convinced a diehard Superman/Christopher Reeve fan to see a movie he was already excited to see! Keep up the great work!
I saw it on Sept 21st and I was so moved by the story and the talent he showcased in everything says he was the total package. I wouldn't be surprised if he portrayed Jor-El in a Superman film had the accident hadn't happen. I could even picture him as Jor-El going to the council, pleading to them about Krypton's doom, we need to evacuate the planet and the whole Kandor arc with them shrinking themselves as a way to rebuild Krypton through Kandor. One of the most powerful lines is from Glenn Close who said if Christopher Reeve was alive today Robin Williams would've been alive today. She knew that Chris would lookout for Robin because of the strong brotherhood they had. When Chris Reeve said "I ruined my life and everyone else's..." that hit really hard. I remember watching a movie before his accident called "Above Suspicion" where he plays a cop who gets partially paralyzed from the waist down, and as he goes through recovery he suspects his wife is cheating on him his brother and setup's up an elaborate plan to eliminate his wife and brother pretending to be paralyzed. Long story the whole plot is another cop portrayed by Joe Mantegna trying to prove that Chris Reeve's character is not paralyzed and he committed the murder. It's ironic that he portrayed a character that is partially paralyzed and this horrific accident happened.
Seeing as I cried during the trailers, I'm 100% crying during the actual documentary. I didn’t realize just how much Christopher and his wife did for the research and study of paralysis. My uncle was paralyzed in a jeeping accident over 15 years ago and the methods of support, physical therapy and assitance tools that he uses only came to be BECAUSE of the pushing this wonderful couple did. I can truly never thank them, as well as the countless scientists and medical professionals, enough for just how much they have given the community. Truly a blessing I continue to see daily, with every moment I get to spend with my uncle.
I saw the in a Regal movie theater yesterday (yes, they still exist) and I learned how close Chris Reeve and Robin Williams were. I knew that they were college roommates and friends, but I didn’t know that they were best friends.
I saw this for my birthday, because I was born on the day he died, not the same year but it definitely made me want to connect with Christopher Reeve’s story and I loved this doc so much, made we want to be a better person.
Great review Coy. Can't believe it's been 20 years since we lost the man who made us all "believe that a man could fly".
Saw Super/Man earlier this afternoon. What an emotional movie. I choked up a few times watching it. It really does make you think about how many everyday things we take for granted. Made me want to hug everyone I love.
Yes yes yes! My family and I went to see it together on Friday! Absolutely adored it. So glad to hear your thoughts... thank you Coy. You are incredible. Keep doing what you're doing!
I can't wait to see this movie, because I was 8 when the first movie came out. I truly did believe a man could fly. Thanks for being so positive Coy.
Saw this during the two-day limited release run. Barely a minute into the documentary, I was bawling. I also appreciated how much was focused on Dana Reeve as well. Although Christopher Reeve had nothing to do with the 90s Superman animated series, I couldn’t help but think of my favorite quote from the show, while watching this documentary: “In the end, the world didn’t need a Superman; just a brave one.”
Thanks for this. FYI - was 12 when Star Wars was released, 13 for Superman, & 14 for Star Trek - so Mr. Reeve holds a special place in my heart. I shared your review with my youngest son. We'll be catching the movie tomorrow. Thanks again 😊
Yaay. That’s great that you loved it so much. :) Def want to see this one.
Reeves best Superman. I can't wait to see it sounds inspiring. I know his son is actual news reporter for good morning America. I remember last performance on Smallville speaking to Tom Welling who was playing Clark Kent. I think he change image of Superman and inspired so many who believed they can fly.
I'm your age Coy and was lucky to have Reeves be my Superman growing up. I remember being sad and angry when I heard of his accident. Gonna bring my mom to see this one 😢
I really enjoyed the film. I'm 49 years old and remember watching the news coverage and the interviews that followed. Growing up reading comics off and on my whole life made me a huge fan of Superman 1 and 2. I remember watching the broadcast premiere on TV with my family. Christopher was such an amazing person I am grateful this doc has come out now so this generation of fans can hopefully learn from him and his family. Coy, I highly recommend you watch the Donner cuts of Superman 1 and 2 back to back.
I didn't wake up today thinking I would watch a review for a documentary that would make me cry.
😢
I can't wait to watch this one.
Thanks, Coy!!!
I remember watching your reaction to "Superman: The Movie" on the Reel Rejects channel, and you saying something like, "It was good" and "I see why people like it." But you can never really understand the magic and wonder of seeing a man fly for the first time when, thanks to modern movie magic, it is so common today. All in all, after watching this documentary, I hope you can understand why Christopher Reeve is, and always will be, Superman to so many millions of people. May he rest in peace.
Thanks, Coy! I have tickets to see this Saturday. Can't wait!
I gotta say, your hair has a bit of the Superman "swoop." Great review!
Was thinking similar. 🙂
Just got out of the theatre from seeing this. So glad it got a wider release because I missed the one day event. What a truely incredibly family. I really appreciated that they didn't stray away from Reeve's darkness before and after the injury. Big shoutout to James Gunn for giving Chris' son Will a cameo in the upcoming film.
Love your review! I was looking for this movie review!! Do more such good work about DC ! Love from India 🇮🇳
Can not wait to check this one out! also thumbnail and camera quality looked excellent! loving everything your bringing to your channels its awesome!
THANKS MAN! Hustling! Appreciate that!
@@CoyJandreau super welcome! You’re always getting better and better at it! Can’t wait to see how far you take this channel!
Love you, @coyjandreau! Thanks for your insights! I’m incredibly thankful that this is so well made and received.
Did you plan that spit curl?!! 😊. Nice review
This sounds amazing. Thanks Coy ❤
Thanks man, im so keen to see this.
i am going to support this because superman is not just my favorite superhero, SUPERMAN AND SUPERMAN 2 ( ACTUALLY ONE FILM SINCE THEY WERE SHOT BACK TO BACK ) ARE MY FAVORITE MOVIES OF ALL TIME. EVEN MODERN SUPERHERO MOVIES DO NOT COMPARE TO THE LOVE THAT WAS PUT INTO THOSE FILMS ! PROVE ME WRONG !!!
Great review.
I saw it last month. I honestly cant remember the last time I was in a packed theater that was that quiet or saw so many people wiping theyre eyes including me and a couple friends.
Its a bit of a hard watch, but very emotional and incredibly inspirational. An absolute must see, but dont forget the Kleenex.😢
Ya it was an awesome documentary! Christopher Reeve's story and his impact will always be so profound. Great out of the theatre review and nice visual as well. What type of camera do you use if you don't mind me asking?
That trailer alone killed me😢😢😢 i live with cerebral palsy since birth I was born with blood on the brain 🧠 and I did die and came back um christapher reeve Superman was the very first superhero movie I’ve ever seen and Superman 2 my heart breaks for anyone living with this disease and my heart breaks for his family and friends what an amazing incredible person christapher reeve truly was
I was able to see this a few weeks back with my mom, aunt, and uncle. While I did not know a lot about Christopher Reeve, it was still a punch to the gut at times, and it was very inspirational.
I got to see them on 9/21 and was so pumped going into it. It didn’t disappoint what so ever. Highly recommend it and I’m glad you’re covering it! If Harloff hasn’t seen it yet you gotta convince him to!
LOVED IT! IT was "swell" \S/
I cried for like 90 of the 100 minutes. Great to hear the whole story as a guy a little bit younger than you who loves Superman and Christopher Reeve
Same, and I needed like 5-10 minutes after to recover as well. Wife was a patient one and knew this was important to me.
I'll have to watch it on streaming, I live in a small town that doesn't get movies like this unfortunately.
Love from Belgium 🇧🇪 ❤ Christopher Reece was the best Superman we ever had. I watched it, I was 6 ❤
The Superman movie with Christopher Reeves was the first film I watched as a kid, I believe I was 4 at the time. Since then I loved the character and watched every film/tv show that had a Superman in it. Amazing actors took up the mantle but Christopher’s performance will always have a special place for me
Liking the new camera!
It comes out on the 1st of November in the UK. I'm really hoping local cinemas will have decent show times for this documentary. That's the only thing I'm nervous about.
I have to ask, was that hair curl you have in this video because of a SUPERMAN / Christopher Reeve story, or is it a coincidence.
I definitely want to see this soon and will probably need tissues. By the way just so you know your mic switched I think from the lapel one to the phone and back to the lapel one. I think it's at about halfway through the video when it first happens.
Seeing it tonight. I got a bit disappointed that I couldn't make the Fathom Event in September but I'm happy to see they're doing a full release.
Same! I had missed the fathom was so happy to catch this first show
Just wanted to remind you that when you do get around to checking out Superman II that you need to watch The Donner Cut. Richard Donner was fired after Superman I came out and decades later he was able to take test footage and incomplete shots and make his movie and it works much better in every way than the theatrical cut.
Great video
Thank you!
Amazing movie
Really loved it
Sadly there aren't any theaters in my area showing this. Ill be buying it as soon as it comes out on digital stores.
can’t wait to see this and cry like a baby Reeve’s life story is more powerful than Superman himself
As a gay man, the words "Wrecked me" with that expression on Reeve's face tells a whole different story
Hahaha he seems pretty proud about it too.
This has nothing to do with your video (which I appreciate you sharing) but I didn’t know how else to ask haha, I’ve never read a single comic book in my life but I LOVE Batman and I’ve been in the mood to dive deeper into the world and lore of Batman recently. What are some good Batman comics you recommend to get me started in it? I never really know how comic books work and how to follow certain storylines and what connects to each other and what doesn’t, but I’d love to learn
Definitely need to see it.
Do!
Anora marquee in the back man i wish i lived in a us major city
See put the S curl lol
You said in this video you watched superman at 29/30years old…. And that you are 36 now, but the reaction video of you watching it was only 2yrs ago and you said that it was the first time you watched it?! I’m Not being a jerk , just trying to clarify . Keep up the great work you do anyway
Oh shit did I watch it for THIRTY FIVE?
I thought it was literally for 30
Whenever I watched it on rejects was my first time
I thought that was YEARS AGO but I guess it was only 2
Sorry I thought it was at least 5 your right it was 34 to 35 not 29 to 30
what happened to the updated superman read list before James Gunn superman
It’s FAR from July. I’ll probably make it alongside first or second trailer so people know to look for it.
If Brand New Dance wasn't the credit song missed opportunity for some fun levity.
Genuine belly laugh and perfect first comment
@@CoyJandreau much like you The Christopher Reeves Superman has evaded me in my life for some reason even though it’s my dad’s favorite. I saw most of it for the first time with your reaction to it and plan to fully watch it before James Gunns Superman and this movie will before on right after Superman The Movie finishes on my TV screen.
Tyler Hoechlin is my favorite Superman even over Henry as I feel he embodies what everyone has been missing about Clark and Superman that they never let Henry Cavill so unfortunately. Even though he is able to I believe if given the opportunity. Hope to see you react to the series eventually maybe with Kristian!
Are you going to watch Superman 2 finally?
Probably for my 40th
So 4 years
@@CoyJandreau omg😆
Coy claimed he didn't watch the Superman movies until a few years ago. It's hard to believe this dude. Coy looks like he could be an 80s baby and I just don't understand how you could go your whole life without seeing staple films in American pop culture and then call yourself a comic book and MOVIE fan. RUclipsrs will do and say anything for attention these days.
Still haven’t seen “the Superman movies”
I watched 1 on my 30th
Il probably watch 2 on my 40th
(Likely won’t see 3 & 4 as I hear they’re rough)
I appreciate the attention!
I'm worried this documentary is going to destroy me.
Bro hasn't even seen Superman 2 🤦♂️
The ONLY Superman, the rest, including the new one don’t come close.
This guy is such a phony!!!! How much did James Gunn pay you to promote DC Studios in this video?
DC studios nor WB had no hand in developing & or making this documentary. Its going to be interesting who the blame gets put on when it underperforms 🧐🤔
You is smart
You is kind
You is important
Amazing review. So many stories, obstacles, and accomplishments. 🫡
Thank you! And yes, truly surreal really
@@CoyJandreau you're welcome. I remember watching the first Superman film on VHS. Definitely one of the best. I actually met Margot Kidder, before she passed. When I was volunteering at Seattle Comic con, she offered to sign my DVD case, as a thank you for helping at the event. She had lots of memories, being a part of the film, and loved working with Christopher Reeve.
