Disjointed, Fractured with glimpses of pure Brilliance

Rating: 6/10 (28 June 2013)

After reading a number of "RAVE" reviews about this movie I was mystified, I honestly believe i was watching a different version of "Man of Steel". That being said whoever is reading this must be asking themselves "Really there is another version?", no there isn't so how did i come to this state of confusion? let me explain.......
Its hard to know where to begin with this movie, firstly Russell Crowe is outstanding as supermans father and the action scenes totally blow your mind and that's about where it ends for me. Perhaps Zack Snyder should have taken a page out of Christopher Nolans (Batman Begins) book on how to reboot a franchise? "Man of Steel" is disjointed and fractured, you don't get time to feel anything for superman as there isn't time to get to know what he is all about. In my own opinion there is far too much information crammed into to short a time-frame, if you know nothing about superman then this movie will be fantastic for you.
The worst part of this movie for me is the total lack of interaction between Clark Kent and Lois Lane, it is one of the fundamental building blocks of supermans story.
"Man of Steel" disjointed, fractured, confusing, compressed, unemotional, frustrating, lacklustre with glimpses of pure brilliance.
If you want to see great super hero movies try the rebooted batman franchise or the Avengers series.
