Long movie with a thin plot

Rating: 3/10 (26 June 2013)

The opening scene (the birth of Cal (aka Superman, Clark Kent) should make the movie unsuitable for small children.
The (male) editor of the Daily Planet has a earring? Doubtful. The actor should have taken it off for the movie.
An Air Force Captain driving an Army LTG around? Highly unlikely. And, she's made out to be weak; if I was a woman, I'd be offended by the way she was portrayed.
The same fight scene over and over and over again ... I guess the writers couldn't come up with anything else.
Yes, good special effects, but so what? We're also there to see a story told.
Overall, very disappointing. If I wasn't with my wife (who liked it, though agreed it wasn't very good), I'd have walked out. I found it tedious.
