The new Superman flick may have divided critics (56% on Rotten Tomatoes) but with fans and the general public the film seems to have done an excellent job. Man Of Steel has just crossed $410 Million dollars worldwide making it the third highest grossing reboot of all time. The film sits in third place in front of Batman Begins (2005), Star Trek (2009), Scarface (1983), The Incredible Hulk (2008) & Superman Returns (2006), while not having the same success of last year's Spider-Man reboot, The Amazing Spider-Man and the James Bond reboot from 2006, Casino Royale. Do you think Man Of Steel will pull a The Dark Knight or do you think it'll remain under the billion dollar mark? Comment below and let me know what you think.
Man of Steel follows the Last Son of Krypton on his epic journey to become mankind's shinning beacon of hope for a brighter future. With the beliefs and values instilled by his adoptive parents Jonathan (Kevin Costner) and Martha (Diane Lane) Kent, a young Clark (Henry Cavill) sets out to find his place in the world. But when the nefarious General Zodd (Michael Shannon) arrives on Earth, Clark will have to choose between being a normal human or Kal-el,son of Jor-El (Russell Crowe) and humanity's greatest protector and champion. Filmed in IMAX and shot in Vancouver, Chicago and Plano, Illinois, Man of Steel will be released on June 14, 2013 by Warner Bros. Directed by Zack Snyder (300, Watchmen) with a screenplay by David S. Goyer (The Dark Knight) the Christopher Nolan (Batman Begins, Inception) produced feature film will surely be the summer blockbuster of 2013.
