Usual superhero movie but a great one...

Rating: 8/10 (11 January 2014)

A good superhero movie with pretty much usual story of having a man (from earth or outside world) trying to save our beloved planet earth from havoc from negative parties. I was not expecting it to be that good but it turned out one of the nice movies at par with any good recent Marvel movie for example Iron Man 3. Special effects and overall acting of everyone in the movie are pretty nice.
Henry, Michael and Russell played pretty decent roles and did excellent acting. I never saw Michael in such a lead role and he did very well. Russell, being one of my favorite actors, as usual, played a nice role. Although he spent less time on screen, he did fine. Henry - the Superman - looked pretty much suitable for his role.
So overall the movie is pretty good and worth watching but it just made me think (as such movies always do) that how weak are we as humans. We all live on this planet called earth and really have no power to save it. We can claim to have all the power in the world - but whenever aliens come we find ourselves pretty ineffective and in end someone like Superman saves this earth from the damage. I always wonder what if there are such superpowers out there who are ready to claim this world but there is no such superhero to save this planet then what? But on the positive side - humanity has always survived and earth lives forever. Maybe it is just the way we think - we might be fine having challenges throughout the journey but in end everything should fall in place. Having said all that - again it is a nice movie worth watching. So relax and have a good time!
