This movie was fantastic. Finally a superman movie having balls. We finally saw the raw power the kryptonians have. And is everyone even aware of this is an ORIGIN movie kind of like Batman begins you have to make mistakes to learn from them. Also what is this nonsense he didnot save anyone. Hello - the oil rig, in smallville hesaid to people get inside because its not safe to be outside he went out of his way to save a helicopter pilot. Oh and he saved the entire planet at the end.
This movie is the best superman movie to date and its right now the best superhero movie as well.
Superman Returns was a joke that superman's kid story was ridiculous and somehere actually like that one better.

This movie was really, really bad. Like... Transformers bad.
BUT Henry Cavill was awesome. Hans Zimmer was awesome. Chris Nolan should be ashamed for attaching his name to this movie. Zack Snyder should never be allowed to work again.

As far as I know DD does not support 7.1 sound. Like I told another reader, the tech specs on the WB press site were all very strange, including notes that DVD and Blu-ray versions would feature different Asian language tracks. I probably shouldn't have reported them at all.
Never seen DD 7.1 on a DVD before, does Dolby Digital even support that?
So you're going to continue to insult me. Alright, I tried. Bu-bye.
Probably about as much value as your reviews I guess which is nothing much. Although I do like reading about the audio visual parts of the reviews and of course what special features come with the movie.
You really are incapable of accepting responsibility for anything, aren't you?
What you've established here is that you are intolerant of different opinions and prone to insult people. Then, when they call you out for it you accuse them of doing the exact thing you did, you play a victim and bring up unrelated instances to support your claims. Then, when confronted with the truth, that you started it, and perhaps if you would've disagreed with me without insulting me, you just dig your heels in and repeat yourself. This tells me you are incapable of critical discussion, so I'm not sure what value you bring to the forums.

Either way you do not respect others disagreeing with you, it is a fact, as I said before I am done with this because it is not worth you banning me over which you will eventually do because you can't take what you give as stated by the other reviewer. I will follow your advice though and not read your reviews. like I said the other reviewers on here are better anyway.
We're not talking about some other review, we're talking about this thread, where you called me names for stating an opinion. When I returned the favor you started crying about unfair treatment of your opinions, which, funnily enough, I still haven't said anything about.
His statement makes perfect sense, the only thing is he meant WAY instead of WAS. If you still don't understand what he means then that is on you. Also I stated my opinion before with another review you made and you insulted me and implied I was stupid.
You really have no concept that you came into this thread and insulted me for having a different opinion from you, do you? The irony is a constant source of entertainment for me.
There's also no spelling error, Mr. Djblack's statement just doesn't make any sense to me.

Typically spelling issues and such are forgiven in comments and Forums, but apparently not by you Gabe. He is right though again you just insulted someone and he just made an observation, but I am done talking about this as I am sure you are ready to ban me for stating my opinions.
Is English your second language sir?
Also, who said I was being sarcastic?

it's kinda funny how Gabe can dish out sarcasm but hates being treated that was or being called out for something. just sayin'. lol.
You both need to grow up and quit bickering like a bunch of women on their periods
also, not going against your opinion at all sir Gabe, but MOS rocked! However, minus Richard Pryor, Superman III wasn't
all bad. I liked how he fought with his dark side, and I loved
that they introduced Lana.

I don't think shouting out a character from The I.T. Crowd would help matters. "Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No....it's just Moss".

This was my only real issue with the film as well. I loved the fact that it looked like they were finally getting rid of the single most unconvincing thing about Superman which is people's inability to recognize him with glasses on and right at the last moment, as if the makers thought fans would be unforvingly pissed off, they changed it back.
From the trailers I also thought they might actually ditch the "Superman" name, and just have people call MOS.

i viewed it as Lois obviously knew who he was, they even go out of their way to establish that one... but no one else in that office ever really got a clear view of Superman so i can see how none of them realizes its him.
of course with sequels, if they show Superman being interviewed and photographed for stories in the paper and whatnot....then yeah, people would put it all together but i imagine thats just a thing they felt was part of the mythology and wanted to keep it no matter how kinda dumb an idea it is.
i mean apparently he wears his costume under his clothes right? so we have to believe in all the movies, shows, comics, cartoons etc... he's never dated women and slept with them? someone had to see him undress somewhere right? lol so i think it belongs in that category...makes no sense but they've always used it and probably always will.

The opening scene on Krypton was truly fantastic. It reminded me of Star Wars in a good way and tricked me into thinking that perhaps they'd be adapting more of the John Byrne version of the character. It was fantasy/sci-fi enough to even make me think they'd adapt a little of Grant Morrison's All Star Superman. But then it turned into a joyless mope-festival.

This should have been called The Adventures of Super-B*****d! One of the extras should be an on-screen counter estimating the number of deaths every time he punches Zod through a skysc**per.
Bit of a bloody mess really, this film. The last act was al over the place. Didn't go too much on them compressing the whole romance thing into a few meetings - it felt completely forced. Actually, there were a load of things that bothered me, so much so that I can't be bothered to list them all. I agree with the World Engine thing though, on account of it being so generic.

I think one of the reasons I hate Superman III so much is that the salkind's fired Richard Donner and again turned the franchise into a parody. I really feel that if Richard Donner had stayed on then we would have had more good superman movies with Christopher Reeve and not the ruination of the Superman franchise. I did like Superman Returns though and consider that to be the official sequel to Superman II (especially since it ignored Superman III and IV altogether)
At the risk of placing a bullseye on my head, I would echo the point about Superman III to a point, in that while it certainly had its faults, it took risks and created one of the most iconic scenes in all of Superman's cinematic history, namely the dark/light junkyard showdown. For me, Man of Steel had two elements which stayed in my memory, which were the entire sequence on Krypton and Zod's last scene. I did enjoy it overall though and look forward to 2015.
I actually think he was aiming less for and Abrams or Whedon look and trying to ape Terrence Malick, which is a very interesting way of approaching Superman, but the execution was just way off. The whole movie struck me as colorless instead of 'rustic'. In the end I don't really think Snyder necessarily dropped the ball other than the stupid tentacle monster scene, which was just a mess. I understand that they were going for a Dark Knight sort of take on Superman, but I also think that is almost the worst way to deal with him. But that's just me being a nerd, my opinions of the property shouldn't really count against the film, which contradicts itself tonally within the confines of a stand-alone story.
And yeah, I did forget about the oil rig scene. Which ends up making that last act all the more problematic since he is firmly established as being the type to worry about the humans around him rather than punching buildings with no regard for the poor saps trapped inside.

He probably would've also resisted the urge to turn the final act into contentless destruction porn. Oh, and I'm guessing his photography would've been at least a *little* less over-saturated by brown.
Just a guess, though.
There is that oil rig sequence, even though he wasn't Superman at that point. And I don't remember "Man of Steel" having a brownish tint (other than one or two action sequences) but the numerous handheld shots were very problematic. Snyder used that patented Joss Whedon/JJ Abrams "sudden panning during the CGI sequences" way too often as well.
But "Superman Returns" could've benefited from that crisp, naturalistic palette. Singer and Newton Thomas Sigel didn't do a great job of capturing that Geoffrey Unsworth diffuse look from "Superman: The Movie"... and it showed. It begs for a crisper look overall. Or it could be due to that godawful Panavision Genesis they used, instead of a better setup now like the Arri Alexa or Red Epic.

Give me an example of one of these times I appear to not have seen the whole movie.
I want to see that I've truly missed a plot point, rather than have a different opinion on the quality of the outcome.

Yes in all fairness I have read many of your reviews. Also I will admit my comment could have been taken as insulting and for that then I am sorry. I just don't believe you can really find Superman III the better movie (especially since it ruined the franchise). Some of your reviews I agree with but a lot of them I do not and I usually don't criticize them. As I said I enjoy the other reviewers on here much more (just my honest opinion). I have shared your reviews with others and have been asked if you even watch the whole movie or if there were key parts you just didn't get. Your opinions are your own of course and I never fault anybody for their opinions, I just prefer them from the other reviewers..Also I have to disagree, most of the trivia I read in the comments section were not mentioned in your reviews
It's hilarious that you insulted me for having a different opinion than you, then turned around and accused me of doing the exact same thing. It's also ironic, because your lack of self-awareness in the regard is textbook delusional behavior.
I'm genuinely curious, did you not notice that you did this? And do you even read my reviews? The comment sections almost always discuss trivia that was previously discussed in the review itself.

I like this website just fine. It is great for finding out when movies are being released and the extra features. And not to piss you off but I like the other reviewers reviews. Also the comments a lot of times are very interesting and have trivia I did not know about a movie before. If you feel this comment is childish (much like the way you insulted me earlier) then I am sure you will ban me. To clarify I believe you have a problem with David S Goyer and I understand that (I hate him) so you are against Man of Steel and find more wrong with it than there is.
In all seriousness, if you have a personal problem with me perhaps you should find a different website to frequent. All the other people here appear to be able to discuss things in good humor, whereas you immediately made it known that 'you don't think much of my reviews' and referred to me as 'very delusional'. I'm not talking down to you because I disagree with you, I'm doing it because you're being obnoxious. I know you like to hold on tight to that persecution complex, but the truth is that I have no idea who you are outside of this thread.
PS: This is the only time I'm going to ask you to stop with your childish behavior.

Typical Gabe ALWAYS insults people who disagree with him...Grow up
James55011, I find it truly sad that you care enough about a s**tty Superman movie to be very disappointed. Grow up.
I went to the theater to see this, hoping this would at least be better than Batman Begins. Admittedly, I came away slightly disappointed, but definitely not disappointed enough to pass on getting the Blu-ray. It wasn't perfect, but definitely still my 2nd favorite summer movie, after Pacific Rim.
Wow Gabe I honestly never thought much of your reviews but to claim Superman III was better than Man of Steel, either you are kidding or very delusional. Superman III was a parody and had a HUGE mistake of practically getting rid of Lois for Lana, he gave up his powers in Superman II for her and forgets all about her in Superman III. It also has Richard Pryor the main character and not Superman who feels more like a co-star..truly sad of you to say that Gabe and very disappointing.
What a ridiculous idea, to think that Superman Returns was better than Man of Steel. There was nothing in that movie better than this. MoS has a better lead actor, better action, better story, better Lois, better villain(s)......it's just better in every respect.

Oh, come on, this movie had more going for it than "Superman III" or the unfathomably bad "Superman IV: Quest for Peace."
I do wonder how Bryan Singer would've done this, with the same cast. Now that would be something to see, rather than "Superman Returns."

I Still BELIEVE Superman Returns(2006) Was BETTER Than Man Of Steel(2013) And Batman Begins(2005) IS NOT A Great Superhero Movie. Shyamalan's Unbreakable(2000) IS THE BEST Superhero Movie Ever Made........EVER.
Oh can't wait! I only saw a few flaws with the movie and was uh super entertained. 
I like the DVD cover best but I'm sure there will be a steelbook cover I will go for.
As for the sequel... it's not in the direction I was hoping for. While I would love to see a Superman and Batman movie I just want Superman to stand alone in another movie with Lex or Brainiac.

Warners will probably omit the the Portuguese, Thai and Mandarin dub mentions from the back covers. A couple of their TV-DVD releases like "Green Lantern: The Animated Series", "Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated" and "Young Justice" included Portuguese and Thai options, but weren't mentioned on the package.

I'm with the ones who loved it (despite its glaring flaws). Can't wait to get this.
I'm glad they changed the artwork from the previous version, but that "3D" sign under the title is absolutely awful.
There's also artwork for a limited edition 3D version that comes in a "S shield" case...

That's why Snyder needs to dump him from "Batman vs. Superman" and get a writer who understand story, structure, and characters. Goyer's usually good at constructing story outlines, but his dialogue is freaking awful.
Also, didn't WB send you back cover art for any of the releases? On the press release I read, it seems like the DVD audio has English, Quebec-French, Spanish, and Thai options. (Whereas the regular Blu-ray has that, plus a Mandarin Chinese dub.)

Honestly this movie just didn't do it for me. I wanted to like it so much (Same with superman returns) but damn it just didnt work. It had good and good but the bad outweighs it. The openening goes on forever, the story structure is insane. I mean we see Louis running from the feds then sure enough we see a young clark. It got frustrating. Stop jerking me around. The villain kinda sucked and also the last 45 minutes or so. It was just mindless nonstop action. The problem is that superman really can't be hurt. So we're sitting there just watching buildings crumble, two characters smash each other nonstop and nobody seems to get hurt. It wasn't like the Nolan Batman films where the hero can be hurt and the stakes are high. It just didn't do it for me. Cavill was only ok as Superman/Kent. It's like they try so hard to make it rough and ruggid. It wasn't really needed. Even as Superman, his chest hair was poking out and he just looked rough. If this was intentional or not I'm not sure, but Superman needs to look polished IMO. I mean he's like Captain America with stronger morals. You'd think he'd be something of a poster boy hero. He looked like someone interrupted his day. Almost like "ahhh guess I gotta go be Superman, let me change my clothes"
Lastly, I'm surprised there aren't any deleted scenes on here.

I don't like David Goyer either, especially after what he did with Blade Trinity. But Man of Steel was a great movie, broke records and got great reviews. The last act was awesome, the only thing I do agree the editing could have been better with the flash backs. Otherwise a truly epic movie.
In terms of cover art:
DVD > Blu-Ray > Blu-Ray 3D

I get why this movie divided folks. I think some folks kept comparing this to "Superman: The Movie". While they're both origin stories, "Man of Steel" really nailed the less-than-glorious aspects of Clark's coming of age and dealing with his powers. The 1978 film glossed over that completely.
I didn't think the non-linear narrative worked as well as "Batman Begins" was. Snyder needed another editor to better arrange the flashback sequences in the film. And he needed a better writer to polish Goyer's iffy dialogue.
There's room for improvement in the "Superman vs. Batman" sequel, or I hope there will. And I did enjoy most of it.

Terrific movie.....not the least bit disappointing. I prefer this newly revised cover with the S-shield over the previously shown bluray cover.
I wish the DVD cover was the blu-ray cover instead

I don't know why they didn't use that poster (was the temp artwork on Amazon).
Regardless, a disappointing movie. They tried to do the same story structure as Batman Begins and it failed. In Batman, you don't care about his parents, in Superman you do. We didn't spend enough time with the Kents and IMO, Jonathan should have lived. If they're going for a different take and direction, why not start there.
Also, someone should have edited down the fight scenes. Snyder had Michael Bay syndrome with this movie, the fights dragged on and on. Sometimes less is more...
Good last line though and I liked Cavill.
