Man Of Steel

** SPOILERS **

Second viewing. I gave it another chance, in 2D, and my opinion of this movie did not improve. It could have started a half an hour later. The plot, the business of recovering the DNA of all Kryptonians imbedded in Clark’s body, is foggy and uncompelling. Besides, who cares? Except for Clark, all Kryptonians seem like a bunch of dicks anyway. Why should we care so much about saving them? The action is way too cutty and CG-ish. Seeing this movie a second time made me appreciate The Lone Ranger more. Apologies to Zach Snyder. (You’re still a talented mensch, Zach! Let’s do lunch!)
