Thanks for trashing the legend

Rating: 3/10 (26 June 2013)

I list this as a spoiler just in case, but I will do my best not to give away the actual plot point. For all the good things about this movie, there is one plot point that completely trashes the entire Superman ethos. I'm quite frankly surprised that DC Comics went along with it, but I suppose it's another example of $100 million for CGI and 10 cents for a script. Yes, it's an all-star cast and yes, the film looks wonderful. Larry Fishburne is an interesting Perry White and Amy Adams is always wonderful, but it is extremely difficult to imagine this film standing tall in the pantheon of Superman movies when it has so little respect for 74 years of Superman history.
