Man of Steel is a very good superhero movie, but it's not necessarily a fun superhero movie.

There's plenty to like in Snyder's hectic, rowdy film. But by the time we reach the bludgeoning excesses of the last half-hour it's hard to shake the sense that this was an opportunity at least partially missed.

Christliness has always been an element of the Superman myth. But this film's near literal insistence upon it becomes absurd since director Zack Snyder and screenwriter David S. Goyer don't dramatize the analogy, they presume it.

Snyder is an adrenaline junkie forever jonesing for a fix; he does less building to the action beats than backing each one into the next.

The movie consists of endless declamation, endless violence.

A curiously empty exercise in blockbuster filmmaking, Man Of Steel is full of sound and fury signifying... you know what.

Cavill broods handsomely as Superman, but this reboot skimps on fun and romance.

I'm excited to see where Man of Steel goes, now that it's accomplished its own bit of world building. There's every reason to expect the inevitable sequels will be better.

There's very little humor or joy in this Superman story.

What's missing in Snyder's Superman is a dash of the hokey goodness that Christopher Reeve contributed to the role and the comic cold cheesiness that Gene Hackman and Terrence Stamp brought as Luthor and Zod.

Man of Steel is the movie of the summer. It's the Superman movie we deserve. And it's about time.

No fun costume change in a phone booth, no wowing humans with his powers and no repartee with reporter Lois Lane.
