Man of Steel

Rating: 9/10 (17 June 2013)

Along with many other people, I am extremely satisfied with this film. In the genre of action, Man of Steel scintillates as the best action film. There was so much action... If there were more action scenes, the audience would have been exhausted (maybe because I watched it in 3-D IMAX). It does not start in media res (Latin: in the middle of the action) like many other films. It started in the very beginning: the birth of Kal-El. This gave the film a new and refreshing feel to it and made it easier for the audience to understand. Also, the acting was great. Mr. Cavill and Amy Adams interacted very well,winning the heart of the audience. Lastly, the overarching theme was profound, genuine, and elaborately embellished into the film. It wasn't like someone just dropped it in there just to have one. The only thing that could have been improved--for my personal preference--was the soundtrack. Overall, this movie is now one of my favorite movies of all time.
