What a TERRIFIC start for Superman!

Rating: 10/10 (28 June 2013)

I walked in my local movie theater to see Man of Steel with my friends the Sunday it came out. Inside, there was a sign for t-shirts with the new alien-like superman symbol on it for twenty dollars. We all thought that was ridiculous. Anyway, we plopped in our seats with our 3D glasses and watched the film. When the action finally started in Smallville, I was like "This... Is... HAPPENING!!" The action was obviously more physical than any other movie I've ever seen. The 3D, however, didn't enhance the spectacle of violence galore, and I believe it could've done well without it. When I noticed that the soundtrack wouldn't include the original works from John Williams, I thought to myself, "Will I miss that?" NOBODY misses the old music score. The soundtrack is both beautiful and original thanks to Hans Zimmer. When the final credits rolled onto the screen, my friends and I got up from our seats and rolled out of the theater. When I asked them on their first thoughts of the film, one responded, "I want to buy a t-shirt, it's worth the money."
