'Man of Steel' - - Nolan's big fat thumbprint . . .

Not bad, not bad at all. I was expecting much worse but was delightfully surprised at a new, creative way to tell the tale of Superman. Sure, there was less apple pie than usual but this is surely just the first of a new series of films for the international audience.

CGI was co-star to an international cast of actors that did their best to bring this extended action film to life. That's the thing about Nolan co-writing this: death and destruction, time to end, nope more death and destruction, time to end, nope more . . . holy Batman. Nolan's thumbprint is all over this.

Poor Henry Cavill has now been permanently assigned to the Pectoral Patrol as far as his future casting is concerned—not that he didn't do well in this role. Amy Adams, forever cute, did well opposite Cavill and revealed in one flash a bubbling butt through her tight pant. (Watch it girl.) Michael Shannon is getting this villain thing down and shines when called to play psycho-crazy.

I am almost disappointed that I'm not disappointed in the film. It's a great summer block burster and I give it two full chipmunk cheeks of popcorn.
