Man Of Steel: A Splendid Superman Movie We've All Been Waiting For

"Man of Steel," similar to Batman Begins, is a serious, realistic, visually stunning, modernized take on Superman and his origins for the new generation, which is a solid step in the right direction for the character. This is the second Superman film in 25 years, as there wasn't a Superman movie since Superman Returns (2006) and before that, not since 1987. Safely to say, this is the Superman film most DC fans have been waiting for.

CAST: The cast is almost perfectly chosen. Amy Adams is the ideal Lois Lane -charming and brave. Her role is sufficiently proactive. Diane Lane is moving and believable as Martha Kent. Russell Crowe is usually a bit grumpy looking but here he is alright. Chris Meloni is a good U.S. Commander. Michael Shannon (who knew Boardwalk would lead to this) is quite a sympathetic and charismatic Zod. As for the comic book handsome Henry Cavill, he completely looks the part of Superman. It's too bad he has to look gloomy and scruffy for a good part of the movie. The new blue suit is an improvement on the older one with a more modern color. 

SUPERMAN: Henry Cavill! HE WORKS! Although fans of the original Superman won't be able to get used to him much yet. I think he's better than the 2006's version Brandon Routh. NEW LOIS LANE Amy Adams works her way beside Margot Kidder (Lois in 1978 Superman) and on top of Kate Bosworth (Lois in Superman Returns) She is very amazing. Both Lois and Clark/Superman in this film has a really great chemistry that we've been waiting for.

NEW MUSIC: We all know the theme song about Superman, well it's not here. The good thing is I liked and loved the score of Academy Award Winning Composer Hanz Zimmer! The music is in perfect place. Beat by beat when the action starts!

ACTION: Palooza are striking furiously like a speeding bullet! Every scene is new and what Superman Returns (2006) lacks! It has a real heart-pounding in the climax!

The CGI is mind-blowing and simply out of this world; every DC comic fan's dream come true. However the movie was disappointing and lacked substance. Total lack of seamless transition between scenes leading to inadequate character development. An array of disjointed fantastic scenes. The scenes hop from one to another, disrupted by the entrance of the next scene. Doesn't allow the audience to treasure that endearing or exhilarating feeling they were left with in the last great scene. 

Overall, it's astounding, epic, spectacular. It's the most anticipated movies of the year and it delivers. This new cinematic take on Superman is a worthy interpretation of the 75 year old icon. (The character was created in 1938).

Many thanks to writer David Goyer and director Zack Snyder for bringing back Superman his long-lost coolness, re-establish him in today's modern world. The origin depicted in the film will let people have a better understanding of who Superman is. Finally, the people know what the 'S' symbol stands for - the symbol of the House of El and Hope. From now on, no one will ever think of Superman the same way again. Finally, the man of steel reclaims his title as the world's greatest superhero.
