    @flameboy298: Pretty sure everyone for the most part knows of my hate toward Rotten Tomatoes.

    I agree. If I had to take ANY review, I'd take it from comic book fans. However, I'll still wait to make my own judgment. Can't wait!

    I know I'm shooting at the dark, but ANY kind of Lobo hinting at all in this movie?

    @muyjingo: Hah. All I'll say is none of those bullet points were negatives to me or I don't entirely agree with them. To say any more dives into spoilers, honestly. And when it comes to my personal gripes with the film, they deal with certain plot points which I won't discuss.

    @snarkybits: Thank you!

    There's been so many bad reviews. But this review gave me Hope. Thank you for that.

    You're welcome. Hopefully you'll agree!

    Biggest question is, is there any lead in to the DCU movie verse? Any other characters mentioned or seen?

    Yes. You see Wayne's logo on a satellite and a Lexcorp logo on a truck. I've heard there's a mention of Star Labs as well, but I must have missed that.

    @k4tzm4n you forgot to mention Kevin Costner's Jonathan Kent and Antje Traue's Faora! Costner did a stellar performance and Faora was really antagonizing and menacing considering she's just a supporting villain.

    I didn't forget -- I just focused on the big three (or at least the big three IMHO). I did say everyone else does a more than able job, though... and yes, that certainly includes those two ;)

    Anyway, it's clear you've seen the film. what do you think overall?

    @the_mast said:

    This is getting incredibly polarising reviews.

    Even the positive ones can't even escape handicapping their compliments. It's always a bad sign when even the compliments say, "Despite flaws..." or "Even though it...". I'm concerned.

    Understandable, but I don't think that's the case with my review. After all, I mention "small problems" I have with the film, and I think it's safe to say no one will claim this is a flawless piece of work. Additionally, I can't dive into those because they're surrounding plot points and naturally, this is spoiler-free.

    So, is Lex actually played/seen in this movie? Or just hinted at?

    I'm not a huge Superman fan, so I won't go see it expecting a great movie. I'll save my enthusiasm til then. What I do like so far is his suit sporting the New52 look. No red panties on the outside, please.

    @k4tzm4n: I'm hoping I enjoy this as much as you did; the MOS has an entire cinematic universe banking on him right now. Here's hoping it's nothing like DKR, positive reviews and bone crushing disappointment after watching it.

    Definitely seeing this on Friday! And screw those guys on Rotten Tomatoes. Just a bunch of morons who refuse to accept that the Silver Age is over and done with.

    Even positive reviews (or 'fresh' in the case of RT) are mentioning the film has it's flaws - it's fair to say the opinions of negative reviewers aren't entirely unjustified. Either way it shouldn't matter, the final verdict in reviews are arbitrary - - - - as in those numbers / stars / whatever are only relevant for their reviewer themselves - it's up to each individual member of the audience to come up with a final verdict of whether they enjoyed the film or not.

    The Skinny: It's all subjective, don't get worked up over it.

    Im not sure about Lobo right now,maybe in the foreseeable future.However I heard their are acouple easter eggs in the movie,Im hoping at the end of the Man of Steel sequel will link to JL.But they still could do stand alone movies sense obviously Batman exist's in this universe sense his satetilite(A.K.A. Bruce Wayne) was blown to bits.

    I was shooting at the stars with Lobo. I had my doubts anyway. I'm still hoping he at least gets some kind of nod, or cameo in a Justice League movie. Really do hope so.

    The character's last name is never revealed -- they just call her 'Jenny.' And yes :)

    Does she die? Cause I really want Jimmy to show up in a sequel.

    @sylvain: I get you don't like it, but to think it's ridiculous someone else does is... well, ridiculous and narrow minded. It's not like we're talking about a Uwe Boll film. It has a 78% on Rotten Tomatoes and is subject to heavy debate for a reason.

    Also, you have over a thousand posts so you should be more than aware of the rules regarding cursing. Please edit that image out.

    I have watched it and though it is good... there are some new approaches in the film that alienates certain people while watching it.

    But my biggest gripe is the destruction of the City scene, it was abit too much and what is frustrating is the consistency of the destruction and ala Godzilla fight scene. I can't believe that the film editor/director let those scenes slide. I want to go on detail but I don't wait to deter other people of blow by blow account.

    I do commend the change of costume and the creation of the Superman mythos...if this is an origin movie for future ones to come...they got it all right.

    I just don't agree that Superman vs General Zod tops the Avengers Fight scene.

    3 out of 5 for me.

    @k4tzm4n Yes, I saw it yesterday. Over all, I loved it.

    Snyder and Goyer did a wonderful job at fleshing out the mythos. The general movie goers would never feel left out.

    I loved how the movie didn't just focus on Superman being the only hero. The fact that Pentagon and the US Army are giving their best shot despite their huge disadvantage against the 'invaders' is very respectful to the military. But I'm not sure if any other CBMs have used them in as honest and respectful way as Man of Steel did?

    I loved that the movie is like a love letter to parents. I hate that people are ranting about Cavill's Clark saying that he's too serious and a man of few words. In a way, he is. But the Clark that we know and love in the comics is easily seen in the actions and choices Cavill's Clark made in the movie. He is raised by the Kents and that is what Cavill showed.

    It was also fun. There were plenty moments that had me grinning and chuckling. There were maybe times in the cinema when I chuckled alone but that would be probably because of the bad acoustics of the cinema.

    Man of Steel is NOT a perfect CBM. It has flaws (little flaws). But it's a movie you would want to see if you're seeking for SUBSTANCE and action. OMG THE ACTION!

    (sorry if i had to post this, maybe it could help if others read it lol)

    I think there's none. There's no post credit scene on my screening. But hey there's the LexCorp tower.

    3 out of 5 for me.

    I took that scene as a sub plot for the sequel. Lex Luthor would help Metropolis and grab that opportunity to steal the spotlight that is on Superman. And maybe we should not think too deeply into it, I mean we dont know what's in store for us for the upcoming sequel, right? Maybe they have plans for it. THEY HAVE PLANS FOR IT.

    Superman-Zod fight scene VS Avengers fight scene? You kidding? Supeman-Zod fight scene tops it on many levels!

    Ok I will definitely have to see it now. For someone to say that the action scenes in Man of Steel are better than the scenes in Avengers, and that overall it beats the Avengers for "best comic book film" is a pretty huge claim. Even if it is as good as you say I don't think I could say it would top Avengers as what I consider "best comic book film," but might be equal to Avengers simply because Captain America is my favorite comic book character of all time while Superman is like my third favorite comic book character of all time.

    @vandinejd_1991: Well, it's subjective. At the end of the day, The Avengers' team dynamic, fan service and comedic nature may still win you over. At the very least I hope you enjoy it!

    And Iron Man 3 got what? 80% on Rotten Tomatoes? RT is probably full of women who love chick flicks and mothers who have a crush on RDJ and wants a movie for their kids. Lets not get blinded with these ratings. See it yourself and have a sound judgement. Lets not downplay any of these CBMs. Lets just be happy that we are getting CBMs, after all we are all fanboys/girls here. (sorry for the rant, RT just infuriates me.)

    @k4tzm4n you gave IM3 a 4/5? @sylvain and you a 5/5?

    Dude, I gave it a 3/5. The only thing going on in that movie is RDJ. I hated that they downplayed and made Mandarin a trigger switch for Killian (who is not scary and antagonizing at all). I hated the fact that Tony has a lot of suits but keeps on wearing that new/failey one. Ugh

    But that's just me. I read your review Gregg and you made plenty good points.

    @fartvader: well, even alot of the more known YouTube reviewers as well as top critics and various sites gave it a meh review, saying that its too much action, but that's the epitome of Zack Snyder's directorial career......sacrificing pacing, character or plot development for the sake of overuse of CGI and visual spectacles.

    I am not going to go further comparing the fight scenes of the two movies...its a case of personal preference, I guess and I do respect that.

    But on the destruction scene, there were alot of inconsistency in the sequence and even the magnitude of the destruction. In an impact made by the ___________ and the never-ending _____________ when the two hit each other. Trust me, its a detail that they missed out in about 2 to 4 scenes.

    Don't get me wrong, Man of Steel delivered what they need to and a sequel maybe around the corner because this is way better than the first attempt of reviving Superman.

    @iceprince_x said:

    I have watched it and though it is good... there are some new approaches in the film that alienates certain people while watching it.

    But my biggest gripe is the destruction of the City scene, it was abit too much and what is frustrating is the consistency of the destruction and ala Godzilla fight scene. I can't believe that the film editor/director let those scenes slide. I want to go on detail but I don't wait to deter other people of blow by blow account.

    I do commend the change of costume and the creation of the Superman mythos...if this is an origin movie for future ones to come...they got it all right.

    I just don't agree that Superman vs General Zod tops the Avengers Fight scene.

    3 out of 5 for me.

    I took that scene as a sub plot for the sequel. Lex Luthor would help Metropolis and grab that opportunity to steal the spotlight that is on Superman. And maybe we should not think too deeply into it, I mean we dont know what's in store for us for the upcoming sequel, right? Maybe they have plans for it. THEY HAVE PLANS FOR IT.

    Superman-Zod fight scene VS Avengers fight scene? You kidding? Supeman-Zod fight scene tops it on many levels!

    Great to hear this but how this can be a 5 star film? Seriously. Come on. It's divided critics a lot...and even those who love it do see flaws for example little romantic chemistry between Lois and Superman and making their hook up rushed and forced.

    You guys really do hand out five stars like tic tacs. I have read a lot of reviews on it, and it averages around 3 out of 5.

    You guys should see the movie and not let other people dictate what you should watch and not watch. If you don't like it, that's fine. If you do cool. But at least watch it before you come to conclusion, since about 80% of the negative reviews are coming from people who love the Donner films and were expecting to see Christopher Reeves Superman in it.

    I only saw one easter egg! I'm definitely watching it again (it was FANTASTIC) so i'll be on the lookout for more.

    @blacharrt1: yeah, because the reviewers on this site are actually real people. They have regular tastes like you and me. Meanwhile, the reviewers on RT are mostly stuck up, elitist types. They rip apart a lot of good movies that regular people would probably like. If you also look on RT, it states that 82% of users liked it and on a lot of the sites that have reviews, at least the ones that allow users to rate things, the users give it high marks. Don't be brainwashed by that elitist culture of Hollywood snobs. See it yourself and make up your own mind.
