"Your a monster ZOD, and I'm going to stop you"?? come on Goyer. You know they tagged Chris Nolan on this like your Facebook friends tag you on to pictures you don't like..... First thing first, I'm a BIG fan of Hans Zimmer, but in my opinion he did not bring it. Just what if this movie had the Gladiator soundtrack.... I love Hans and if anyone could go up against John Williams, he could, but this fell short. We needed theme music!! Lots of things I loved about the movie but overall it did not do it for me. I was sold the first 20 mins of the movie. All the movie after the bar scene went down hill. We needed that 12 years to pass like Donner gave us. This guy was in the suit (which who knows how it got there) in 45 seconds, it just moved too fast. I NEEDED a moment!!! Like when I was a kid and Superman saved Lois from the helicopter - WoW I felt chills!! It didn't have to be that, but give me a moment, anything, a feeling. I loved the the young Kal-el in the classroom scene Great!! I felt!! I liked krypton. Actors were all good for a second I thought Faora played out a better villain (just looks she gave)( WHY was she more sexy than Lois???) and I kind of thought Lois fell short (Could have been dialogue) However, all the aliens on earth fighting tearing up the city??? The dark knight did more with less CGI I'm sorry. I mean superman was amazing because their was only one of him- fighting crazy Lex Luthor (a human)- now he's fighting 10 aliens just like him- it used to be fun to just watch him fly- now it's a Si-Fi flick. I mean I would lay on my chair and pretend to fly, now who cares... get it. Anyhow, I believe it was a great effort- great job in re-creating a better image of who superman could be. I really think the first trailer I saw a year ago (with Russell talking over The Lord of the Rings music did it for me-Wow!!)- I feel like the movie was a long trailer wit dialogue and great visuals,eye candy. I'm willing to say the old John Williams score could have brought some emotion to the film even. Hey even a Harry Gregson-Williams or Thomas Newton score!! I only wish for a Nolan vision of Superman cause I know Nolan was hands-off this. Oh and by the way SUPERMAN WOULD never let his father die. His whole thing was he had all these powers and COULD NOT save him....WTF... NO WAY he just let him die. Come on!! WARNER Bros executives !!!! Eject !!!!
