Strongly disagree with 57%

Thoroughly enjoyed it

Was it perfect? No

But it was a highly entertaining reimagining of the character

Several scenes will bring you to tears if you have a long history of following Superman

Really disagree with most of the critics, but it's mostly because I disagree with what they are criticizing about the movie.

In short, they seem to be hung up, in one way or another, in it not being like the Reeve/Donner movies from 1978/1980. It's not joyful enough, not enough romance, no theme song, too serious, etc.

If you liked the trailer, and you go in expecting a more serious take on the story that take a different approach and describing his childhood...I think you're in for a treat. If you somehow long for the 1978 flick, save your money and go watch it on HBO this month.

I really enjoyed this movie...

Are we going to get a new thread with a title reflecting all the percentage changes of the RT score??

And yes I can see, from a technical perspective, why the movie is trending lower. The editing was TERRIBLE.

A 57 is about right. The movie had more flaws than perfections and the story itself was slightly above average at best. I just can't understand what people seen in this film, other than the superhero aspect of it.

-HC was GREAT as Superman
-we finally see hardcore Superman action on screen

The story was forced and disjointed though and that almost killed the movie.

It was pretty fricking awesome after the credits when it showed him flying way above Gotham City, then they panned to his face and he smirked and was gone.

Goddamn people

The story feels forced because this is the first of a trilogy

No shite it's not going to be the greatest movie ever made just as TDK and TDKR were better than BB
