What???????........

I don't personally don't rate them. Batman Begins was pretty good but the others I couldn't find myself rewatching, like ever.

*runs away from fans of his Batman films*


Yeah, Batman Begins was the best.

I can rewatch Batman Begins & the Simpsons Movie, and I guess Man of Steel 3D, even though I haven't seen the first Superman 3D film yet.

My 13yo just watched it.
His 3rd favorite so far this summer - behind Iron Man 3 and Star Trek.
So I will skip this one.


Its nice to see I'm not the only one only watching 3D Movies this year, even though I seem to only have such a thing in common with teenagers LOL.



Wow... so good.

Great movie. Definitely the best movie I have seen all year.

Yup. But to be honest, it was only because I had no other choice.



It's kind of hard to get hyped when SO many comic book films have been shit. The X-Men films weren't bad FILMS (well the first two weren't), but to a long-time old school X-men fan, they were terrible X-MEN films. The Fantastic Four movies were garbage. I actually liked the first Hulk film, but thought the second was horribly dull. The Spider-Man trilogy was, for the most part, great (aside from a couple of unnecessary issues that 3 had), but I had zero interest in "The Amazing Spider-Man"....rebooting a franchise RIGHT after a trilogy finishes is a really crap move, in my opinion. Thor was decent, I have no idea what the second will be like. Same with Captain America.

Iron Man 1 was surprisingly good, but 2 was dull and 3 was outright nonsense, at least in the story department. Avengers surprised me a lot and I'm REALLY hoping 2 doesn't let me down, but I'm not gonna hold me breath. The first Ghost Rider was okay, but the second was one of the worst movies I've ever seen. Same with the Punisher. Daredevil, the director's cut at least, was decent, but Elektra was absolute shit. Superman Returns wasn't BAD, but it was terribly boring and dragged on. Just didn't seem like Superman, too much lame attempt at drama. The first two Bale Batman films were very solid, but 3 just absolutely shit the bed in every way possible. One of the worst sequels I've ever seen, to anything.

Green Lantern was...............yeah. The Wolverine and new "X-Men" films aren't even worth talking about. So yeah. It's fair to say that my enthusiasm for The Man of Steel isn't very high. I doubt I'll even bother seeing it in theaters. I might catch it on video and it MIGHT surprise me. But honestly, I'm not expecting much. The trailer certainly didn't make me go "MAN that looks good!". So.....................yup.

Just came back from watching it.

This is definitely and easily the best Superman movie ever made.  Not that it was difficult to do. Reeve's movies were good for their time, but when you watch them today, they haven't aged too well. Way too camp for my taste. Even if Reeve's charm is undeniable and still alive to this day. His Superman represents an older era that just doesn't work as well today.

Now that this is out of the way... I really enjoyed the portrayal by all the actors in Man of Steel. Henry Cavill is very good as Kal-El, and his acting is awesome throughout the whole movie. His acting is made all the more enjoyable when you see Clark in different eras of his [early] adult age. Where he's in different states of mind, in his build-up to becoming the Man of Steel. I'm trying not to spoil the movie so I'll remain this vague. :P

Amy Adams as Lois Lane is a delight. This actress is hypnotic. Something about her eyes, I think...

In any case, the creators did mix things up a bit when it comes to the mythos but still remained very truthful and respectful to the canon. Which I really enjoyed. Everything is explained in a convincing way. Old questions even, that have more often than not been ignored in the comics and other itterations of the story are resolved in this movie. 

Since I just came back from the movie, I could probably go on and on... But I haven't yet fully composed my thoughts about it.  My mind is still overwhelmed by how awesome it was.

I only have 2 small "complaints" about the movie. 

- The movie could have benefited from a bit more character interactions between Lois and Superman/Clark/Kal-El...
- And sometimes, too much action isn't better than too little. xD


But I'm definitely going to go watch it again.

Oh, an other minus, but it's not really a complaint... Don't pay extra to watch the movie in 3D. I did, because they weren't showing the movie at the theater I went, and I thought the 3D wasn't really necessary, and was in fact barely noticeable throughout the entire movie (only exception being the Krypton scenes). 

 

For now, the movie is a solid 4.5 out of 5


LOL, this was recorded in 3D like Iron Man 3 & G.I. Joe Retaliation, specifically 3D IMAX Cameras.

And since these are recorded in 3D IMAX to be specific, well that means the theater format of the images is only suited for IMAX size screen.

Dont worry, they will re-format the stereoscopic images before they release it on 3D Blu-Ray to look full blown 3D in a minimum size of 40 to 50 inch screen. Samething happen with the Hobbit too.

I would suggest 3D IMAX for the theater format of the 3D, for movies recorded with 3D IMAX Cameras.

The Great Gatsby was just recorded in 3D (non-IMAX) so they formatted the 3D effect for the theater version for regular size theater screen for the theater format of the images to bring the lambarts closer to 19 lambarts which is what they actually get with the IMAX size screen format.

Star Trek Into Darkness was converted from 2D, so a minimum of 100 inch screen will guarantee you a good looking 3D effect, but smaller then that is when you start to get screwed over.

They really need to make multiple theater formats, (1) for 200+ inch screen (like Flagship theater) (2) for 500+ inch screen (3) if it's IMAX, then IMAX size screen format as well for true 19 lambarts.

LOL....This movie destroyed Iron Man. Iron Man is only is only a marvel by the manner in which hes played rather than how good the movie really is.
