Review of Man of Steel (2013)

By Steven Rea (1,872) for Philadelphia Inquirer (3,920) on 12 Jun 2013

At least an hour of Man of Steel's excessive running time is devoted to the sort of crash-and-burn, slamming-into-skyscrapers CG fight scenes…

Review of Man of Steel (2013)

By Rene Rodriguez (1,781) for Miami Herald (3,319) on 12 Jun 2013

By Colin Covert (1,936) for Minneapolis Star Tribune (2,416) on 12 Jun 2013

Review of Man of Steel (2013)

By Joe Williams (923) for St. Louis Post-Dispatch (1,715) on 12 Jun 2013

Review of Man of Steel (2013)

By Mike Scott (1,178) for New Orleans Times-Picayune (573) on 12 Jun 2013

So we get no zippy, Tony Stark-flavored one-liners. No comic-relief characters. No nonsense. But that means we also get no up, up and away, either…

Review of Man of Steel (2013)

By Andrew O'hehir (1,324) for Salon.com (2,725) on 12 Jun 2013

Despite looking, feeling and (especially) sounding expensive – this is one of the loudest summer spectacles of recent years – Man of Steel…

By J. R. Jones (1,337) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 12 Jun 2013

Review of Man of Steel (2013)

By Michael Bonner (121) for Uncut Magazine [UK] (201) on 12 Jun 2013

Review of Man of Steel (2013)

By Joe Gross (195) for Austin American-Statesman (501) on 12 Jun 2013

As enjoyable as the action is, the final battle between Zod and Superman is city-smashing disaster porn that makes the final scene in Avengers…
