  1. I thought this was an old page, Cavill’s birthday or something but no this is the first UMR page for Henry ‘Superman’ Cavill.

    I’ve seen 10 of the 16 films on the chart, favorites are – Man of Steel, Superman v Batman, Justice League, Man from UNCLE, Mission Impossible Fallout, Stardust, Immortals and Enola Holmes.

    I’ve also seen Triston + Isolde and The Cold Light of Day.

    I can’t remember if I’ve seen The Count of Monte Cristo, maybe.

    Batman v Superman tops the box office chart, not the best Batman or Superman movie but it did give my sound system a good workout.
