Man of Steel is a weird film on every conceivable level. I could sit and write a novel-sized post on how weird it is, but it honestly speaks for itself. The plot, the acting, the pacing, all feels (appropriately?) semi-alien.

I'd recommend watching it twice, Skyjedi. People seem to form their concrete opinion of MOS in their second viewing.

I read when it gets to Earth its like a ripoff of Batman Begins. Honestly i hope not. I got the same from the trailer. And Superman is anything but brooding, full of angst and unsure of himself. Nolan got away with it because its supposed to show that he was like that before he was Batman.

I love Batman Begins and the other 2 Batman flicks by Nolan despite their flaws. But I don't know people are saying he really is not Superman til the last 5 minutes of the movie and that part 2 was going to be a Superman film proper, that was until it became another Batman film.
