Man of Steel : Too much = Not better
Movie:
Man of Steele
Strong Point:
Good start to the Superman franchise. A good 10~15 mins of great action sequence at the beginning of the movie showing planet Krypton. So don't miss coming in late. A good fighting scenes of Superman against Faora and another massive huge guy. It's like OK Coral in a western gun fight. Great & destructive CGI sequence of fighting scenes similar to comic book tunes.
Weak Point:
Too many flashback .. Once in a while is good but too many is extremely irritating. Henry Cavill is great as Superman but he doesn't show much expression in the face and it is almost like he is a robot or something. I would like to see more of Kevin Costner and Clark Kent relationship with their adoptive parents but it wasn't shown. The plot and storyline is rather weak and some scenes are just plain nonsense like why the Army with massive weapons afraid of a broadcast signal by Zod? The CGI fighting is a bit too much. Almost like you feel that this is the beginning and end of a Superman franchise. The 1st genuine fight with Faora is spectacular but the fight with Zod is extremely disappointing and too much smashing and crashing inside building that it almost made people feel a id bored.
To See or Not to see:
See it only once for the CGI fight sequence. Not so watchable on second time round.

Nowhere near perfection, but a fine superhero flick that’s released during the best time of the year for them. Great review.
