In SUPERMAN VS. THE ELITE, Superman's effectiveness as a super hero comes into question when a new group of super powerful crusaders, known as "The Elite," appear on the scene.  As super heroes, the Elite know no bounds, and are more than willing to kill, even on a massive
scale, to stop villainy -- putting them on a collision course with the ever-ethical, yet preferably non-lethal Man of Steel.

The all-new, PG-13 rated film is scripted by award-winning comics writer Joe Kelly and the story is adapted from his original 2001 DC Comics release, “What’s So Funny About Truth, Justice and the American Way?” The single-issue comic, Action Comics #775, was lauded by Wizard Magazine as the “Greatest Superman Story of All Time,” and ranked the epic tale at No. 21 on its list of the “Top 100 Comics of the last 30 years.”

George Newbern (Father of the Bride) reprises his Justice League animated television role as Superman, and primetime television star Pauley Perrette (NCIS) provides the voice of Lois Lane. Downes steps in as Manchester Black, leader of The Elite. David Kaufman (Justice
League: Doom) also reprises his Justice League TV series role as Jimmy Olsen.

The film is directed by Michael Chang (Batman: Brave and the Bold). Bruce Timm (Batman: Year One) is executive producer, and Alan Burnett (Green Lantern: Emerald Knights) is producer.

For some reason I'm just not sold on this movie. Hope my initial feelings are wrong...

The Superman animated movies have been hit or miss me. For the most part rest of the DC animated movies have been pretty good with the exception of Gotham Knights wich was godaweful. .

I haven't been all that happy with the DC animated movies lately. Not when you compare them to some of the older movies. There are some that are pretty good, but after watching most I was glad I just Redboxed them. Not that Marvel has been doing much better with the animated medium but it seems like DC is falling behind in feature and animated films. I know it is just my opinion here, but I would really like to see DC turn it up a bit and put out some awesome animated movies.

you know I can never tell the difference between George Newbern and Tim Daly  when they do the voice of Supes.
