Tough gig, but I had hopes that Nolan could do it. Seeing the critic's reviews, I'm kinda bummed. May pass on a theater watch.
You would be doing yourself a great disservice by allowing paid professionals to dampen your excitement. The audience reaction is at 82% percent positive. I thought it was a fantastic film.

Tell me I'm wrong.
My impression is that the first half or so is great taking a never before done angle on the origin story.
The rest is a bunch of mindless CGI crap.
Am I wrong?
I want to be.
I'm not into comic books or Superman, I'm not emotionally invested. What I wanted was a cerebral Superman movie for the first one mining out so much great stuff about him coming to grips with who he is and when it comes out who he is how the world reacts. The first one could have been a character piece with the antagonist being a meteor or something where he struggles whether to reveal who he is to save the planet and deal with the planet's reaction.
Then you have Zod and Luther to close out a trilogy in separate movies.
Just my two pennies.
It looks like they started an interesting movie and then made The Avengers.

This was really a no-win situation for Snyder
But he made a fantastic film
