Another missed opportunity (spoilers)

Rating: 5/10 (28 June 2013)

Reasons why this superman film underperformed (once more):
1) The plot did not bring out the epic character of the hero and even contained some very stupid lines: "Evolution always wins", "I'm laughing because he's hot", ...
2) The superman character is very different from the one in the comics, who would have never been destroying buildings while about a million people dies as a consequence. The lead author is good, but created a character with way too high testosterone levels. This is of course a shared responsibility with the director.
3) The new metallic look of Krypton is quite unattractive. I much prefer the crystal fortress theme of the original film.
4) The explanation for superman powers is again quite stupid. A scientific adviser would have come out with a more plausible one. Also, there was nothing really special about him, but won a field general. This should have explained much better.
