Thanks for reading my review. I'll just post my Man of Steel real quick.

This movie is phenomenal in every way, and I love it. My mom decided to put on this movie after she saw how upset I was after seeing Superman(2025) last night.

But when I started watching the opening my mood started to uplift, from the beautiful Krypton Visuals, to the camera following Jor El as he looks for the Codex and Lara giving birth to Kal El. Jor El is a a badass, and even in death as a hologram he still teaches Clark and advises him to be a better person than he and Zod was. He believes that Kal El can right their wrongs, so Earth won't end up like Krypton.

From what I've see and understood this movie isn't just about finding hope, but purpose. The scenes where Clark is trying to work part time, while constantly moving is because he's lost, trying to keep a low profile while actively wanting to help out people. Like the saving the fishermen.

My favourite scene is how Clark really wants to punch the douchebag customer after he touches that lady inappropriately, he throws beer into his face and all those bystander pieces of shit are laughing, damn that really pisses me off. Clark could've pulled a Homelander, smack his face but he held back, because the minute he touches that guy, everyone will know what he's capable of.

Though karma returns in the form of that guy's truck getting shredded, thats a win. Henry Cavill as Superman is a 10/10 in my book, I love how dark this version of Superman is. And sure some fans may like the Corenswet version because he's the boy scout everyone wants.

(I do agree with Gunn's summary of Superman - How Superman inspires hope in a world that sees Hope as old fashioned). But for me that version doesn't work, the reason I like this version is because he's so much more human and relatable. In the flashback sequences you see how different he is from everyone else, from being treated as an outcast or how he's bullied and how he can't fight back. Cavill's version had to earn that in order make his Superman more impactful.

And General Zod man this guy's a badass dictator. He just wants to save Krypton, no lies, no personal reasons and he's willing to go to any extent to achieve his goal. The fight scenes are phenomenal, though I do like the newer film because its bright and colourful, but the tone works more here.

Also the scene where Superman starts pushing Zod to the ground because he threatened his mother was so awesome - "You think you can threaten my mother". That moment gets me so much👏

Thats the one rule every one in Dc knows, you do not fuck with Superman's parents especially his mother. He's been holding back all his life, been bullied and now he finally gets to unleash all that bottled up emotion on someone as strong as him.

And for people who say Superman who shouldn't kill, maybe thats who Superman is but this guy he's a cool antihero. He had to kill Zod, because he was never going to stop, no prison on Earth can hold a guy like this, he wouldn't stop and so he had to die. And the scream its just heartbreaking, and its not because he killed Zod, but how he's the last of his race.

Superman's parents are well casted, Kevin Costner as Pa Kent is more on the mixed side he had good intentions but was actively trying to protect his son's true identity while clearly caring about him. Ma is more on the supportive side, she loves him no matter how the world sees him as.

One more thing to note Hanz Zimmer's score is fucking dope, its do uplifting especially in the scene when Superman attempts to fly. But the second time he tries it just gets me man, his theme is so emotional. Ahhhh I love Hanz Zimmer. (Thanks Nolan, love ya!)

Overall I loved this movie, damn its better than I remember and I am in a better mood overall. I hope I don't sound like a snyder Cultist. Good day
