The Pros Out-Weigh the Cons

Rating: 9/10 (4 July 2016)

Pros ... loved the chemistry between the two leading characters (Lois & Clark). Loved the use of flashbacks in telling Clark's story. Loved the special affects.
Cons ... numerous weak story issues: Jor-El had no sense of urgency while preparing to launch his son to Earth; Jor-El didn't bother to ensure Zod was no longer a threat; Zod's prison seemed more like an expensive refuge from a dying planet, and his subsequent escape from it was completely glossed over; Lois' (mountain) climbing on the ice face wasn't credible; why would Lois position herself between Clark's space ship and the ramp at the back of the cargo plane, out of which the ship was about to be dropped? Most of all the crowd scenes -- when Metropolis was under attack -- were on par with junior high school maturity level in every aspect of their production.
