The Man of Sh**

Rating: 1/10 (18 June 2013)

This movie was clearly made people with short attention spans. There is no build up that even makes a viewer care about the characters. The actor playing Zod had the ability of a loaf of stale bread. Henry Caville really could make a great Superman if given a decent script. The focus is set way too much on the Kryptonian aspects of Superman where the point of Superman is to showcase his humanity. Maybe I'm clinging to the classic Superman: The Movie too much, I don't know. This movie gave me no emotional reaction. It could have been any run of the mill CGI infested Sci-Fi romp. This was really just crap. I am also wondering if anyone else is bothered by the idea of Superman growing facial hair and somehow shaving...This bugs me and maybe I'm just too picky. The editing made little sense to me as well. I'm not altogether sure why WB decided on this to be the new MoS flick in an era of very well written superhero films. The only thing epic about this movie is its failure to capture my imagination. Please WB...keep Snyder away from any future projects!
