Action Scenes

[ericadawn16]

I feel a little bit bad because you can tell how proud the filmmakers are of their fight scenes this summer but...
I'd be perfectly happy if they were half as long, they just go on and on and on...

I totally agree. I thought they did a good job with the story. I really loved Russell Crow as Caul's biological father. I wanted to see more of him! lol! It was very serious; I thought a little more humor would have been nice too....but I cried too which is always a sign of a good movie for me. I think Marvel is better about comic relief, but I still enjoyed "Man of Steel." The new Superman is quite handsome too and I like Lois Lane. Sorry if I spelled any of these names wrong. I believe that was Diane Lane who played his earth mother? I thought she was perfect.

I agree at the end I was getting tired of all the smashing into buildings! Enough with that. I did like seeing Superman launch off the ground with super speed. Something they couldn't have done before CGI. Wished we had CGI when they did the Christopher Reeves version. :) In my opinion the best action/super hero films and sci-fi are usually better when there is a balance between the action and the story. The story has to be strong and touch me otherwise the action parts becomes boring and tiring. Also throwing in humor when you least expect it makes them great. I left the movie feeling a little empty like there should have been something more. Hard to explain. Still not a bad film, sometimes when I see them a 2nd time, I feel differently.
