Best Superman Movie

Rating: 10/10 (28 June 2013)

I'm going to preface this by saying Superman is my favorite comic book super hero next being Batman. Simply put it MOS was an awesome movie. The last two movies I saw twice in a movie theater was Man of Steel and Inception. Both are amazing. Anyone who says otherwise is a Marvel fan or wants a Christopher Reeve remake. If you want a Christopher Reeve Superman movie this one isn't for you and you should probably go and watch those movies or Superman Returns. I'm a big fan of the Dark Knight movies and I MOS is just as great as Batman Begins and a MOS series of movies can be just as big as the Dark Knight movies.
Spoilers ahead The movie itself does a great job as introducing the character of Clark Kent becoming Superman, and that is pretty much the theme of the movie.
Most of this is to all of the haters. I have heard and read about all of the 'problems' with this movie. Why don't the Kryptionians save themselves seeing as they are an advanced race. That's part of the timeless story of Superman. So is Superman's disguise of being a reporter. In this movie and all of the Superman movies, none of the Clark Kent reporter disguises are all that convincing. But that is the story, people aren't supposed to easily recognize him. People have problems with the fact that the second half of the movie contains a lot of destruction and fighting. What do you think would happen if multiple indestructible beings came to take over the world and an indestructible being tried to stop them? And people also say that the MOS should have lured Zod and the others away from the city. But if it is Zod's goal is to destroy mankind, why would they chase after Superman if they can kill humans at will, while Superman is trying to lure them away? Although he is Super, he can't prevent the all the destruction, but he can save the whole world by taking out Zod and his people. Which brings me to the last spoiler: the killing of Zod. Yes, Superman's morals is that he doesn't kill which is vital because of the great powers he has. But, how did he come to feel this way? The killing of Zod shows this and his emotions afterward confirm his moral standing on life despite the evil of Zod and most likely shape any future predicaments. And yes, Superman kills Zod in Superman II after taking away his powers and also laughs about it with Lois after. Yes, this movie was awesome. A Man of Steel series of movies will be great. I suspect with the introduction of Luthor will be a great Supervillan which the Joker (RIP Heath Ledger) could have been had he been able to be in multiple Batman movies.
