Part 2
WARNING! If your easily offended by coarse language or seriously! Please do not watch or read the review below!
At the beginning of the film what you should be seeing is Doomsday's fist pounding through the ground, because that's the iconic thing fans want to see in animation, but instead we get some boring ass intro from Lex Luthor!
This shouldn't have been a Lex Luthor movie! It should have been about Doomsday!

What really rapes my childhood is the fact that they try to make you feel so bad for Clark Kent, he tells Lois he is going to Afghanistan and she does care so he pouts his little pussy ass to the elevator and takes off!
This is not at all what the comics taught me! When we see Doomsday burst outin the comics, they cut to a shot of Superman flying in the air, then have him he find a Kid who needs Superman's help to beat up some mutant thugs
I guess all you can say is '[frick] it, don't expect anything from this film just watch it you already paid 27 bucks for the DVD!
maybe it will get better!
'
Nope. Lets talk about Luthor some more!
So Luthor's drilling two miles into the earth, and his workers find an alien containment unit thing. Right then and there I am getting madder by the second! It's like there saying Doomsday isn't strong enough to break out himself?
Come on, the punching his way out of his cell was what made the comics so awesome! BUT they didn't try to tease the character at all!
Instead they had him break out of ice, kill a few people, then cut back to Lex not giving a damn!
They didn't even give him the [frick]ing green suit!
THEN THEY GIVE HIM [frick]ING PREADATOR EYES!
Oh. But they will show him killing a a deer?
Come on!
So Lois and Superman are at the fortress while she tries to get Superman to reveal his real identity
Doomsday kills someone who we don't really care about,
Starts a forest Fire, and Lex Luthor is freaking out because he may get caught.
It makes me just want to bash my head against a toilet seat until I throw up and lay in it!
it seems the only thing this Doomsday could do was Super Jump!
There is a redeeming quality about this film- the battle scenes are pretty great to watch!
To see Superman released in a way he isn't holding back is amazing!
The problem is, this had already been done on Superman the Animated series against Darkseid . And I know you will probably get pissed at me for saying this, but I think Doomsday was handled better in Smallville! At least on that show Clark shoves him deep underground so that we can one day get that Iconic fist through the ground!
I mean, in Superman the Animated Series, Superman just fried Doomsday's brain with his heat vision and the series went on. I would have accepted that more than sitting around watching and hour and 10 minutes of bullshit...
So how does Superman end this epic battle?
Well pretty much like Smallville. He shoots him up in the air and super slams him on the ground!
Yet again, no iconic moments from the comic book, such as the double punch that kills both of them!
SO WHAT? THEY INCLUDED THE ICONIC CAPE BUT SO DID SMALLVILLE!
It just felt like there was no heart to it! I wanted to go into this movie and shed a tear like I did when I read the Comics and Novel!
Even the funeral scenes didn't show any cameos of other heroes, and those other characters helped to invent Superman! Not Jimmy Olsen, Lois Lane or even Perry White, they may be part of the Superman Mythos but they weren't, to me, the building blocks of a hero. It was about knowing there are other Superheroes that just don't feel as strong without Superman.
Instead, Jimmy gets a new job and Lois goes to see Clark's mom to get over him. I guess it sounds good on paper, but it just broke away from the original so much it was hard to really feel any emotion for these people.
