Action, yes, but plot is tailor made for attraction only

Rating: 8/10 (1 July 2013)

The action was nothing short of Zack Snyder perfection: stunning, smart, eye-pleasing and filling. The story and the plot, however, were forced and at many times were just not believable. The relationship between Clark and Lois was underdeveloped as it can be, with of course the scenes where Superman stands hand in hand with her and Superman saving Lois Lane just stock events that weren't built up to properly. For the first 20 minutes I believed that the film was the movie of the year for sure, but as all the expectations that the trailers invoked were crushed and blurred through I realized the vastness of difference between Christopher Nolan's plot and Zack Snyder's. In other words, don't expect this to be thought provoking or a Nolan work, but watch the movie as a summer action movie without the prejudice that The Dark Knight trilogy brings to movie-goers.
