As Harley Quinn (as voiced by Tara Strong) says at some point in the video game Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, “Hear that? That’s the empowering feminist anthem of my internal soundtrack starting.” Begging the question, what anthem is she referring to?

One of the most heartfelt pieces of cinema I’ve seen this year was the wonderful documentary Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story. Directed by Peter Ettedgui and Ian Bonhôte, the film takes a look at the amazing Christopher and Dana Reeve, and their story overcoming the adversities that came following the tragedy of Christopher’s 1995 accident.

The moment the credits rolled on Joker: Folie à Deux, the tangible sound of stunned silence filled the theater. It wasn’t unexpected. Minutes before the film screened, we were told by director Todd Phillips that early screenings of the film ended with many saying they needed to process it.

My hope is that the title for this review won’t get me sued by the makers of Ted Lasso. But in my defense, I’m mostly just playing off the tagline of one of the greatest superhero movies ever made. And in that grand tradition, we now have a stellar documentary telling the inspirational story of one of the most iconic superheroes ever! No, not Superman.
