Review Man of Steel


It's one of the most anticipated movies of the summer, people talking about it. But can I say that I'm dissapointed with this movie? I'm not a fan of DC Comics or Marvel but I've watched all the superhero-themed movies. I agree with some critics who said that this movie is being too seriously.

Man Of Steel tells the story of Clark Kent (Henry Cavill), a young man who discovers that he is an alien from the destroyed planet Krypton and has super-human size and strength and uses his powers to help the human beings on earth. Clark soon finds out that the earth is going to be invaded by General Zod (Michael Shannon), an evil leader from Krypton. With the help of Newspaper reporter Lois Lane (Amy Adams), Clark now has to figure out how to destroy General Zod and save Earth.

Seriously, Superman just made this exact same face constantly from when he was kid to when he was fighting bad guys to when he was having an emotional conversation about his dead father figure. In between stilted conversations and awkward dream sequences, most of the dialogue in this movie came in the form of monologues from an enraged General Zod and a Jar El's ghost that was randomly manifesting itself in Kryptonian technology. There was no chemistry between Clark and Lois. NOTHING funny in this movie. Their biggest attempt at humor came at the end where a seemingly badass female soldier giggles and tells her boss that she thinks Superman is pretty hot. Faora-Ul literally the only awesome part of the movie because not only is she straight out of the comics, she also a bona-fide bad ass and totally hot.

In my opinion, they should have taken that hours' worth of footage, and used the time to only use the violence and fighting to further a plot point, or the characters, roomates they failed miserably at. I mean, I do not know! I'm not a screenplay writer, but you know, Goyer and Nolan Easily could have done something! Add stuff to make the more interesting STORY AND PLOT!

Overall, we see a Superman movie brimming with darkness and at times a little flawed, but I expect the second installment to learn from this and evolve into a proud moment of the Superman legacy.
