It is still a fun time and for an origin story, it moves at a pretty brisk pace. It does take itself very seriously, but you could say that about its follow up, Batman v Superman as well. Some people hated it and said that Superman would never do this, others liked how it forced Superman to act and do something that would save the world, but also take a piece of his humanity at the same time. Of course, the huge controversy with Man of Steel is the ending and what Clark has to do in order to stop Zod. Seeing Superman get to go toe to toe with other super-powered beings is fantastic and the carnage that these Kryptonian fights cause is a sight to behold. Faora is brutal in that she will do whatever Zod asks and she will enjoy it if she gets to put a beating on people. There are other Kryptonians that Clark must deal with as well, most notably Fora. He will do whatever it takes to bring back Krypton and if Earth has to be destroyed as a result of that so be it. You can tell by the way that he carries himself that Zod has seen some serious action on the battlefield. He has not only a fantastic screen presence. Zod is played by Michael Shannon and he is awesome.

Man of steel blu ray not full screen movie#
I think the movie tries to make us feel that Clark is conflicted over this, but that does not actually work. Of course, they do not care about humanity and actually try to get Superman to come to their side and help them restore their homeworld. The main plot of the story is that a surviving bunch of Kryptonians led by General Zod have found their way to Earth and want it for themselves. It is a scene that is done really well, one that is frustrating and heart-wrenching all at the same time. It is heart-wrenching stuff, at the same time you are just screaming at the screen for Clark to get in there and save him even though you know he can’t. Superman’s origin is a billion years old at this point so this is not really a spoiler, but when Johnathon dies and he does so to protect Clark’s secret.
