Originally posted by steverules_2I really liked Man of Steel. But the most obvious criticisms could've been avoided with the simplest of changes. There were only as few things that kept the movie from being an all-time great. I hated the flashbacks to his childhood because of how stiff and on-the-nose the script /acting were. I only liked Diane Keaton's acting as Ma Kent. Tighten up the script and get different kid actors.
Was it? As far as I recall it was all bad.
And while I thought Pa Kent's choice was certainly controversial and could've been handled better -- like show multiple news cameras at the scene -- I also thought it was brave and unironically brilliant. Kal-El dared not reveal himself because he would no longer be a man but a godlike being. Bad for his own growth and maturity and possibly bad for the development of the human race. It was only until the entire planet was threatened that he was forced to. It was a theme throughout the entire movie that was poetically resolved with Kal-El deciding to live as both Clark Kent and Superman with only Lois Lane knowing.
The only other thing I wished they focused on was during Superman's fight with Zod. We saw innocent individuals' reaction to the scope of danger of their fight. But it would've been better if they kept showing Superman himself worrying about innocents and collateral damage. In the end, it only took a single family being threatened by heat vision to drive him to murder. N1gga, what about all the people that died when they were flying through buildings that toppled???? They should've shown him being gradually tortured by the massive mayhem + realizing Zod was only becoming more acclimated to his powers = he couldn't further risk not ending the fight. Would've made Zod's sudden murder more poignant.
There isn't a comic book or disaster movie that I think comes close to matching the scale of widescale catastrophe that Man of Steel portrayed. Maybe the original Independence Day. But I haven't watched that since I was a kid and it may not hold up.

Ooohhh... Man of Steel is on Netflix. Time to see if it holds up from when I last watched it years ago.From the start, Hans Zimmer's soundtrack is so good...
Bar the action, I think the movie has a lot of issues, and they won't get any better.
