a must watch superman movie

Rating: 8/10 (15 June 2013)

The movie in spite of having a story told and retold a number of times before, wonderfully depicts the life of super-man. Even though it lacks breath taking sequences, as I expected ,had enough and more to glue me onto my seat.It lacks romance but depicts the hero more as a 'family man' searching the purpose of his life. And as any other super hero movie right from 'Transformers' to 'Dark Knight' it took a lot of effort from the hero to convince his mates that he is not their enemy and was actually fighting the evil rather than being evil himself. Speaking of direction, except the lengthy special effect sequence in the second half the movie was largely refreshing, and a wonderful casting adds to our over all experience. Justice wont be done if I am closing this review without commenting about the work of Zimmer. Once again he gave us what we expected from him.
