... But I've watched plenty of animated series and other Superman movies. Man Of Steel is one of my favourites.
The first 45 minutes are incredible. The origin story of how Kal El came to Earth is done both shortly, detailed and accurately. You really feel for the sacrifice his parents make and see how utterly alone in the world Kal El really will be. This theme continues with confusion of who is his and his journey to discovering his true identity shown between grown man Clark and flashbacks to incidents in his childhood.
Then the critics started whinging. It lost the story... Stupid love stories.... Too much action...
Rubbish. Two men from a different planet with ridiculous strength are fighting for what they believe in and what they want - and Superman is fighting the only person he has ever encountered from his planet. Hits you right in the feels if you have a heart. And the controversial ending... Well, I won't spoil it but do your research on Superman and you'll realise you're whinging for the wrong reasons.
And Henry Cavill is a fabulous Superman - swiftly planted 2nd in the list after Reeves.
Great film. Bring on Batman Vs Superman!!
