Disappointing

Rating: 3/10 (10 October 2013)

I should note that this review is not based on the full movie as I only managed to watch the first 30min or so before feeling compelled to switch off - it was that bad... Those 30 min, however, were enough to convince me that this movie was on par with recent Hollywood action releases such as the Ironman 2 & 3, Battleship etc, and as such devoid of any interesting plot or characters. In short, a big action mess with little logic behind it (and, yes, I'm aware it's Superman but that doesn't mean that the characters' motives and actions should also defy logic) to an extent that you'd think that Damon Lindelof had a go at the screenplay. Starting to think that Zack Snyder is a one-hit-wonder with his only watchable movie being 300 (and perhaps to a lesser extent Watchmen).
