L'uomo d'acciaio

An epic Superman film one of the best ones that is incredibly well directed by Zack Snyder! Goes from explaining how Clark/Superman gets sent to earth because of his parents to the right amount of character development with Lois Lane and power along with epic action sequences. I've seen a few times even then I really liked it, this adaption deserves plenty of praise all around. The cast is excellent, beautiful cinematography, amazing story, emotions on point, and superb action!

I was really happy with the origin story aspect of this movie... although I would have liked to see more of Kevin Costner's character. I didn't see this until New Year's Eve 2020 and had heard a lot of comments about the movie... positive land negative. Exceeded my expectations.

Am I one of the few people who actually love this movie? Man of Steel has beautiful visuals, an amazing cast ensemble, and action scenes to blow you away. The story is better than that awful Superman Returns movie and it's like the actors are doing their best. It's no Wonder Woman or Aquaman, but its a very fun watch and completely unforgettable!!

This point of view is fresh and very ahead of his time when the movie was released. Its about hope and take a look of "what it could be if Superman are among us."But its even deeper and more meaningfull. The Contrast between "Darker" visuals (maybe "darker tone/ visuals/filter)" and moral choices and actions made by Superman, are like a Light. It represents that manners, good behaviour, tolerance, helping to each other, love have a place in this world. Even tho humankind is very rough, mean and maybe We dont deserve Superman.

We are affraid things what we dont know. Very grounded movie, stunning visuals, camera, edit, great cast, and man what a score by Hans Zimmer. Movie or story of main character have some similarities with God which is obvious and in modern good way.

There is so many topics in this movie but i think they want to shows us that Everybody and every each of us are superman. Its about our daily fights and choices which affects others and us aswell.

"You have to decide what kind of man you want to grow up to be, Clark. Whoever that man is, good character or bad, he's gonna change the world."

"But in time, they will join you in the sun".

Love it!

So we are looking at essentially a remake of Superman (nothing wrong with that). So how does it compare? Favourably.

The original is perhaps a little softer, more romantic and more idyllic whereas the remake is darker, richer and a little more interesting.

2 changes that worked for me, the origin part of the story on Krypton which is much more expansive (creating more of a universe feel, literally) and the extended character of Superman Senior. Brando was the quintessential sci-fi 'head in a bottle' character using him to explain Supe's back story in the original, Crowe's character came full combat ready and I think it added well to the overall story.

Really enjoyable effort that sits well as a representative of the DC universe :)
