as my first real post I decided to talk about what in my opinion was the best superhero movie of 2013: Man of Steel and the 5 reasons why it was so awesome.
1.Nothing we've seen before
Man of Steel has reinvented Superman in many ways. From a new reimagination of the Planet Krypton to a new costume and a new fortress of solitude Zack Snyder has certainly given us something we had not seen before in any Superman films. The special effects have allowed Superman and Henry Cavill to show us what it truly means to be faster than a speeding bullet and more powerful than a locomotive.
2. Superman and his villains
Superman vs Zod. When I heard that the villain in Man of Steel was Zod I thought to my self why? Why choose a villain that we have seen so many times on the big and small screen? The truth is, however, that Zod and subcommander Faora have shown us what superpowered villains can actually do to the Planet. If we compare the silly fight that Christopher Reeve had with Terence Stamp in Superman II with the fight that Henry Cavill had with Micheal Shannon we'll see understand the greateness of the movie. I personally like the fight that Superman had with Faora more than the one with Zod because of the intensity that Antje Traue gave to the character.
3. Dark Knight similarities
There are several similarities to Nolan's Dark Knight Triolgy. If we look closely Batman and Superman are much alike so it makes sense that since Nolan's Dark Knight Trilogy did well, they would continue along that same path.
4. Soundrack
Hans Zimmer continues to dazzle everyone with his beautiful soundtrack. A movie becomes great only if it has a great soundtrack. Every scene is great and the soundtrack makes it greater. Listen to this track called: Flight
5. First Chapter of DCCU
This film is considered to be the film that will start the entire DC Cinematic Universe similar to the one brilliantly created by Marvel/Disney. The next instalment of this DCCU was announced at the 2013 Comic-Con and it will feature not only the Man of Steel but also the Caped Crusader aka Batman. It will be the first time that the two heroes will meet face to face on the big screen.
This movie undoubtedly had some flaws but it's a fantastic movie and I'm sure that for the next instalment the people behind this franchise will avoid making the same mistakes.
