amazing movie. i shed tears at the music and unbelievable scenes. you dont go there for the story ppl, you go there to see superman and my fucking god, do you see superman

just came back from the movie, I would say its a great superhero film, but not one of the greatest, it was to serious for a superhero movie, this would be great for Batman but its to much for Superman.

Michael Shannon had a mean look but his ton of voice just felt off.

also the pacing felt very compressed, they tried to cram to much in one movie.

as for Lois, I think things moved to fast between them.

after all is said the action was great.

I just saw it myself. It was very good. But is it one of the greatest? Hmm...

It is not as good as The Dark Knight (but what super-hero movie is), or Batman Begins, but it is better than the Dark Knight Rises.
It also is not as good as Iron Man 1, but is better than Iron Man 2 & 3.
It is better than both Hulk movies.
It is better than Thor.
It is better than Captain America.
It is not quite as good as the Avengers, however, I don't believe that is a fair comparison. The Avengers is a climax movie that was set-up over several movies and didn't have the same burden of telling origins.

It is better than The Amazing Spider-Man, but not as good as Toby McGuire's Spider-Man 1 & 2. Better then Spider-Man 3.

It's better than the X-Men & Wolverine, in my opinion, although I didn't see X-Men, First Class.

It would say it is better than Keaton's Batman, and Clooney's "Batman And Robin" but about on par with Forever. Forever may have been a bit better but Nicole Kidman was hot in a way that Amy Adams is not, and that may be clouding my memory .

It's better than Superman Returns, which I actually thought was good but hopelessly broken from the moment they revealed that Lois Lane had a baby.

I loved Zod. I do think it was a tad compressed. And I do think that the Lois / Superman love affair moved much too fast. But the action was godly.
