Movie Review: Man of Steel

It was obvious from the outset; it is a new Superman for a new time.





Man of Steel of Warner Bros spent an estimated $225 million as start of a new Superman Franchise. Out of the $225 million some of the pennies were spent as part of Warner Bros promotion strategy with continuous trailers and ad's being aired on television during the another Warner Bros's movie The Dark Knight which on coming on television yesterday evening. The trailers made a good impression, they were awesome and I felt I am ready for Superman to fly back into my life.



Directed by Zack Snyder (300) and overseen by producer filmmaker Christopher Nolan (The Dark Knight trilogy, Inception), does delivers on the promise of its title. The good start cast, powerful dialogues (not Dark Knight comparable), Hans Zimmers subtle music and 3-D experience does add to the experience. The screenplay might not flow all that well with a particularly bumpy first half as the scenes in the first half didn't align smoothly with one another. It's not because of the great flashback scenes, the flashback scenes did help in framing up the pictures to fall into the right places. And the visual effects by the way are awesome.


Man of Steel for many, is far from a perfect movie and yes I also agree they could have done some things better when compared with the new Batman movie.


If I have to rate, I would say the Batman films are great and this Superman film is good.
