So, I saw Man of Steel over the weekend. I hate long lines and crowds, but I wanted to see it before anyone had the chance to spoil any surprises for me. (I won’t give any spoilers here, either. I hate spoilers.) I didn’t love the movie, but I didn’t leave feeling overly negative either. There were sections of the film I thought perfectly captured the nature of Superman…and then there were others that fell very flat. It’s an incredibly mixed film, as well as a long one, and the poor editing made me wonder how much longer the movie would have been if they hadn’t cut scenes (and by that, I mean scenes that had obviously been planned for and deleted).
