I recently rewatched Man of Steel and the AMC spoilers review with John Campea, and I must admit…I agree with Campea. I loved it. I still have flaws with it but am curious why everyone hated it so much. Basically this is an in-depth review thread for such a controversial film that I happened to really like. Any others agree? Did you hate the film? I’d love to talk. Below are some flaws that come to mind for me:
-The early pacing is a bit of an issue. The passage of time during the krypton scenes is hard to follow.
-After they destroy the world engines, the scene of Lois and Superman kissing feels forced and tonally inconsistent in comparison to how much horror the world engines had just caused.
-The ending scenes after the final battle don’t expound upon Clarks grief after killing Zod. It seems everything gets packed up in a nice bow all too quickly. I do love however the “welcome to the planet” moment haha.
