Good action film with great cast, but doesn't feel that super

Rating: 5/10 (15 June 2013)

The movie has some great action fights, but at times a little too much. You will find one or two fights a little unnecessary, like the robot fight. There are also some weird moments like when superman has a dream sequence with all the skulls, Lois is brought on to the ship and when the solider calls superman hot. These were all unnecessary moments. However, the acting was fantastic and cgi was great. Flashbacks were very interesting and so was the style and story. It won't have killed if they added a bit of humor. There were times where it could have gone perfectly, but they decided not to. Also, the stakes were too high for this film. Avengers-like destruction was in only the first film and I don't know how they are going to succeed it. Overall, a fine superhero action film but could have been better. But it does set the mood a greater sequel. 8 out of 10
