Ode to the Explode

Rating: 6/10 (25 April 2014)

I'm a mild mannered man, much like Clark Kent. I don't wear glasses, however, and I wasn't shot from the nether regions of space from a splodin' planet. I guess at this point I'm rambling which reminds me of the movie's random crash course of a story.
We start with explosions on Krypton. Then we move to explosions on Earth. Then the grand finale is MORE explosions on Earth.
Sure there is a diddy about some civil war on Krypton and an attempt is made to complexify our villain but it doesn't do much for me other than stack more time into this dragging movie.
The most powerful moment for me is when Clark has an opportunity to abuse his supernatural strength on an abusive jerk, but shows restraint. The theme that we all make choices about who we are is powerful. What will you do with your abilities? Other than that I was not impressed in any long lasting way.
For me, it is a one time watch.
