so far the most visually compelling Superman movie

Rating: 3/10 (26 December 2015)

Visually, Man of Steel has been the most compelling movie about Superman so far. Only visually.
There were numerous quasi-emotional scenes, for example the death of Superman's adoptive father. But this is something i'd expect of such a movie.
The second thing that bothered me was the CGI. Thanks to it, we've never seen Krypton to such detail. Also, this is the closest we could get to the realism of fights between superhumans. However, the latter scenes dragged on forever and were on such scale that after a while i got numbed and disinterested. After seeing a couple of buildings being crushed by humanoids they all looked the same.
On the one hand, i'm glad about this reboot. On the other hand, the series of movies that will follow would probably be filled with action and dumbed-down scripts. But i might be too demanding about the movies based on comic books.
