Man of steel for a new generation!

Rating: 8/10 (15 June 2013)

Critics believe this movie is missing out so many things, this could be true but Snyder has made up for this in directing, David S. Goyer and Christopher Nolan (Dark Knight trilogy.) have made up for this in the story. People expect this Man Of Steel to be exactly like the classics. They expect Cavil to be exactly like Christopher Reeve. They are not. We are in a different age now, an age with darker people, darker villains and darker heroes. The only way we can pretend that a superman can exist in this age is to redefine him to a different time. This Superman is what happens when you think 'what would it be like if an alien like Kal-El existed on this earth with our problems. I believe the design of this Superman trilogy (if it becomes one.) is to freshen things up and to be a journey and show the viewers that Clark has to become a certain man before he can guide humanity towards a new tomorrow. Why is this film getting all the bad reviews when Morrison is doing the exact same things with the comic books? Sadly this film doesn't go in depth on the romance between Superman and Lois and Clark and Lois. The beginning on krypton is fairly rushed but can you blame Goyer and Nolan from trying not to make it too long. I only saw this film 5 hours ago and I'm impressed with it and how Superman has to discover who he needs to become and he needs to fight the urge to kill as he killed Zod to save the lives of a family but he needs to learn there is always another option. I can't wait to see him discover that and I can't wait to see the rest of Kal-El's journey. Overall the acting was spectacular, especially from Cavil, Crowe, Adams, Chanon and basically the rest of the cast.
