Man Of Steel

Rating: 10/10 (30 June 2013)

After five years of eager anticipation from movie goers and Superman fans alike, director Zack Snyder and producer Christopher Nolan bring forward the resurrection of one of the greatest superheroes of all time: The legendary last son of Krypton, Superman.
The film is both the origin story and mainly the story of the character's life-long struggle to try and fit in amongst the citizens of earth while facing off his extraterrestrial inheritance.
The film's style gets its audience to invest in the world of a gritty, edgy and more modern version of the beloved character, making the experience feel like the audience is actually living in a world they recognise. Henry Cavill's performance brings out the character's struggles and dilemmas to which the audience can relate him almost immediately as well as bringing to the table the things that makes Superman who he is.The film's casting was spot-on perfect to which life-long Superman fans can experience the new and interesting versions of the characters they know and love. Zack Snyder's direction gives the film the gritty and edgy look and feel it needs and also making it very stylised but not giving up the things that makes Superman who is his. The film's action sequences are very intense and very exciting bringing Superman into unbelievably new heights in the action-adventure genre.
The first part of the film seemed a bit scratchy and confusing, the film also seemed it was rushing a bit too forward the first putting on of the suit of the arrival of General Zod.
FINAL VERDICT: Overall, Man Of Steel starts off a bit slopping to begin with but immediately becomes more intense and eagerly invested as the story progresses, Zack Snyder brings his full potential as well as redefining himself almost entirely. Its exciting, very intense, unbelievably epic in many way, shape and form. Rating - 10/10
