It is sad to say, but this is not the Superman film we all have been waiting for.
It is a very excellent film visually. Superman is taken to new heights. Modern technology has added a new dimension to the character. When Superman was release in 1978, people were amazed to see a man fly. Well in 2013, we get to see a man break the sound barrier while flying. Although the cinematography tries to give the illusion that we are witnessing it first hand. So instead of Superman gracefully floating across the screen, we get very intense quick movements that are so rapid that your eyes can barely keep up. Also it was very loud. Every action was accompanied with an intense sound.
That was the best part of the movie. I liked how it looked. What I didn't like? Everything else. There was no character development. The story seemed rushed and had plot holes. There was an overbearing theme centered around Clark Kent reluctantly becoming Superman.
I am sure a lot of people will come out and defend it. It deserves defending. I thought it was a good film to watch. I just expected it to amaze me, and it did not. That is the challenge whenever Christopher Nolan gets involved with a film.
This film was suppose to setup the new DC cinematic universe. We can only hope that it gets better from here.
I give it e - Entertained
You may enjoy it, but if you're a Superman fan, you probably will not.
I am not sure that any new Superman film will ever exceed the very high expectations that was left by Christopher Reeves.
Tonight World War Z....
