This movie was everything that I wanted from Superman and more.
Note, this movie is darkER than the Christopher Reeve versions but less dark and drab than the last one. Henry Cavill does an AMAZING job walking the line between Clark and Kal-El. And this movie is about Superman, not Clark until the end. Then there is, what I would call a seamless transition to Clark and what will for sure be an exciting sequel to this movie.
Many people were dismayed by the destruction in this movie. Like why didn’t Superman move the fight to the middle of nowhere so regular people won’t get hurt. And that is the point. He is LEARNING. He is NEW to the whole concept of being Superman and doing these things. PS he was also fighting someone with powers equal to his that was hellbent on destroying the whole planet. I was personally happy he just got down to kicking some but and wasn’t asking o take the fight elsewhere, because I am pretty sure that General Zod wasn’t going to accommodate any of Superman’s requests.
I want MORE Henry as Superman!!!! Definitely a winner!
