In the pantheon of superheroes, Superman is the most recognized and revered character of all time. Clark Kent/Kal-El (Henry Cavill) is a young twenty-something journalist who feels alienated by powers beyond his imagination. Transported years ago to Earth from Krypton, a highly advanced, distant planet, Clark struggles with the ultimate question 'Why am I here?' Shaped by the values of his adoptive parents Martha (Diane Lane) and Jonathan Kent (Kevin Costner), Clark discovers having extraordinary abilities means making difficult decisions. When the world is in dire need of stability, an even greater threat emerges. Clark must become a Man of Steel, to protect the people he loves and shine as the world’s beacon of hope – Superman.

Henry Cavill as Clark Kent/Superman

I loved the Kryptonian technology! They should show some more Krypton flashbacks in the sequels.

Does anyone know the track that is used at the end of the video?

this "liquid geo" scene reminded me of some movie i just can't remember. I'm pretty sure I saw those kind of effects before. Any help ?

I believe that track is "Goodbye My Son"

I loved how Jor-El was explaining to Kal who he is and where he came from.

@AnakinsTwin

it's not T2. It was either some music video clip, or Fritz Lang "Metropolis" (never watched though). I have no idea

I LOST MY [frick]ING SHIT AT KRPTON. JOR EL WAS A TOTAL BADASS.

Krpton was purely and utterly [frick]ing MAGICAL

The Opening scene on Krypton was breathtaking. I honestly wanted to see more. Its also great how Jor-El had more screen time than Marlon Brando did in the original.

When Zod destroys Jor El's conciousness, what exactly did he do on the ship? Also Clark lost his "key" with the ship that brought him to earth, so how else can he bring Jor El's hologram back?

@thanos83: Actually, despite that fact that I like Man of Steel, that was more Michael Bay than Iron Man 3 was. The problem with Man of Steel is the lack of character development and the "romance" between Clark and Lois is completely rushed.

I'm surprised MARVELJERKOFF79 hasn't showed up yet to give his input.

@Thanosan 3

both movies are equal.

I gave Iron Man 3 6/10
I gave MOS 6/10 too.

MOS is superior drama (with some great performances as well) but as the action goes - it just didn't do it for me.
The effects are too CGI, the level of destruction reminded me of Michael Bay Transformers saga. It was so over the top, it became ridiculous.

Iron Man 3 has it flaws, but it's not bad either. If you are the fan of Mandarin, you'll be disappointed. But if you never red about him, you may have some fun.

I'd pay to see a prequel to MoS based entirely on Kryptonian history. That was one of the best sci-fi worlds I've ever seen on the big screen.

yes, yes,

MOS is amazing movie... even i already knew its many flaw.

The opening scene on krypton was stunning. It could easily be something on star wars. I guess thats why snyder is now being linked to that franchise.
