Violence & Gore

Mild
19 of 34 found this mild
A bank robber uses a gatling gun to shoot a series of cops/cars from on top of a building. It doesn't show anyone dying but you can assume many of the cops died. The man is soon shot by two security guards but he is unharmed because of the bulletproof vest he is wearing, the man starts shooting at the two security guards but Superman stands in the way.
Lex Luthor and his men kick and punch Superman who has been made sick and weak from Kryptonite poisoning. He is then stabbed in the back with a kryptonite shard. Superman later falls from a great distance after a battle.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

Mild
18 of 28 found this mild
A dog is seen eating and licking its chops upon Lex Luthor's return to his wife's mansion with his henchwoman asking if there weren't two dogs earlier, heavily implying that the dog resorted to cannibalism during the time Luthor was away.
There is a sequence where an airplane full of people are in peril because of a malfunction, many people are in peril and Lois is thrown around the airplane. (the scene is very intense)
The scene where Luther and his men are beating up Superman is pretty intense.
