Man of Steel - 5/10 I dislike the entire opening on Krypton because rather than feeling original it just feels like a modern version of the Marlon Brando stuff playing out with little lifts from every imaginable other sci-fi of the past 10 years. The Matrix nanoprobe things forming shapes and grabby claws, and Matrix baby fields with robot spider pickers, the Avatar flying ridable beasts, the Codex, Zod looks like he got all his gun ships from the Republic wholesale after the Clone Wars... Lois is also really forced into most of her scenes and Costner is at his least likable ever. I did like Cavill and the action minus some of the more lame scenes like the gravity stopping just one pound away from killing Perry. It's really shocking watching Metropolis get destroyed and not in a good way. Not even in a quick and over way like Watchmen it feels cringeworthy constantly thinking how many people would be getting killed when so many buildings are collapsing with no warning. When I watch the finale of the Avengers it feels funner, here it feels like your watching out of morbid curiousity the way you put on a big news story where lots of people are in danger, your just worried.
It just didn't feel right.
