What were they thinking?!

Rating: 2/10 (23 July 2013)

Man of Steel
A sci-if disaster movie whereby Aliens cause disasters and want to take over the world.........oh ye, with superman in it. A terrible reboot which you will forget about in 4 days after watching.
This movie has zero humour, no Clark Kent (Reporter) and no Jimmy Olson. Amy Adams as Louis Lane was a terrible choice. This movie was a huge disappointment. Henry Cavill as Superman didn't work for me. He comes across like he belongs in a Broadway show and not on the big screen. I really hope they don't make Man of Steel 2. What I'd like to see is a sequel to Superman Returns brining Brandon Routh back as he was a far superior Clark Kent/Superman.
Superman does not kill - EVER
Since when is Jonathan Kent telling Clark to let kids die.
Lois Lane was not the same funny bubbly character we all love. Amy Adams sucked.
Henry Cavill as Superman? Who the hell made that decision in WB? What an idiot !! Cavill looks the least like Superman out of all the others.
The storyline to Man of Steel was atrocious. A wishy washy back and forth story between present and past with vast action scenes and a storyline that probably took half a day to cook up.
Jonathan Kent dies in a hurricane whilst Clark stands by and watches - that's new! They obviously didn't wanna give him the traditional heart attack then.
Since when does Superman have a beard and since when does he become a drifter travelling the country going from job to job.
Clark locates a spaceship and flys it where he then meets Jor-El who then gives him his Superman suit to which he then has a quick shave, gets into the suits and learns how to fly in 97 seconds.
Jor-El gets stabbed by Zod whilst Lara dies alone when Krypton blows up.
Superman DOES NOT KILL. I've mentioned that already right!
Clark lives on earth for 33 years and takes that long to learn his powers. Zod comes along and does it in 1 day.
I laughed like hell when Lois turned up at the train station just before Superman killed Zod. Has she got super powers too? She seemed to know every location he was going to land/crash and meet him there? Maybe he was texting her?!
Superman had the choice of throwing Zod or flying up with him in order to prevent death to that family but NO - Superman decides to break Zods neck - and I'm supposed to let my kid see this movie?
This movie should have been shot in sequence. The back and forth flashbacks got boring after the 84th one.
All the buildings get demolished but yet Clark starts for work at the very untouched Daily Planet soon after he destroyed Metropolis.
God knows how many people Superman killed when he flew Zod through all those buildings killing half the city.
The first half of this movie tries to set the tone whilst the second half is just CGI. The movie has no real storyline.
Snyder wanted to make a masterpiece and in my opinion failed in a big way. His ego was clearly writing cheques his body couldn't cash. I'm convinced that he was smoking weed whilst directing the majority of this pile of sh*t movie. Richard Donner & Bryan Singer done a MUCH better job.
How does Clark end up meeting Lois Lane, reviling his identity and later getting a job at the Daily Planet? Where can they go with the separate romance between Superman and Lois whilst Clark remains a third character.
What more can I say? Shite acting, depressing soundtrack, zero humour, most of the movie shot in CGI, terrible storyline, no character, no heart, etc etc etc etc etc...........This movie was made to make $$$$$ because it certainly wasn't made for true Superman fans.
This movie was awful and that's not an opinion! I could watch all the other Superman movies again. Will I ever watch Man of Steel again? LOL !! Enough said !!!
I give this film 1/10 only because I'm a generous kind fella. All I really want is my money back and to erase my memory of this diabolical disappointment.
