Whoever said a movie with women in the lead cant run.This one doesn't just run,it rocks.What do u get when a thin,tall,sexy,bull-headed FBI cop meets a fat,shortish,equally bull-headed,witty local cop?You get an epic mixture.
Summed up in word, this movie is 'Insane'.The ego clashes,the battle,the tension,the hilarious moments in this movie are something to watch out. The one liners are epic, the dialgoues are as good and funny as they can get and are intelligently witty.I did not expect this much humor. The acting in general by the lead pair is superb(Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy).The plot is kinda there and all the supporting cast is decent.This movie is generally funny but many times gets ridiculously boisterous.The jokes are pretty good and original.
Go for it.It will make you laugh your head off.

When the likes of Zack Snyder and Christopher Nolan are in the same venture ,you know you are in for something big. And Man of Steel does not disappoint.It is a retake on the world of superman,his birth,story and him finding a place for himself in our world. Honestly given the backdrop I expected the story to be kind of slow in the start. But the manner in which it was told i did not find it so at all. I was gripped from the very beginning. Beautiful story telling.
The acting in general is superlative.Henry Cavill fit perfectly into the shoes of Superman.Almost as if he was born to play this role. He has that unique mix of handsome yet vulnerable persona. Amy Adams is not exactly someone you can call hot but the role did not require her to be.She was charming and had a pleasant affect. Michael Zannon as general Zod was a pretty intriguing antagonist.Russel Crowe as Superman's father was superb as well and had a look almost reminiscent of gladiator. It was nice catching Laurence Fishburne as well. The support cast does a decent job too.
The direction by Zack Snyder is great.The dialogs are smooth and stay true to the plot while capturing the essence of characters. The character development for each character is brilliant,one of the most important things in a film. All the characters are given enough space in the movie. And you end up caring for the characters which is always a good thing. The story is pretty straight forward and I think deliberately told in a fashion that is very easy to pick which makes it more universally appealing. The background score is apropos to the theme and adds another dimension to the movie. The pace of the film is quick enough to keep you interested all the time. The cinematography is pretty aesthetically pleasing. The superman costume is just kick-ass. Now for the action. I think it is one of the best action movies i have seen. I am in general sceptical towards action, particularly when it gets all jarring and blurry .But with superman it does not. The action seems very well executed , genuine and simple enough to follow while entertaining at the same time.Some of the scenes are like ZOMG Mind blowing. And I am not even going to get into the amount of effort that must have gone in. The CGI looks authentic and nothing in any frame ever felt artificial.I think Krypton was captured beautifully and uniquely.
Let's see the flipside. I did get IMaxed(kinda overrated experience for me) and while the feel was good the 3-d is kinda non-existent. There are few questionable plot holes and there are few times when you think really? But i guess some of the things are pretty inescapable. Maybe they could have shown Superman to be conflicted while choosing sides. Then again that's how Superman is. Ah, screw it who wants to find faults with such a legendary movie.
Some people complain 'Man of Steel' was long and slightly slow, I did not find it to be so. It is already belting the box office and 'Man of Steel 2' has been announced which is great for the franchise and us fans. Above all I think this is a very honest and genuine movie which never tries to be pretentious, and boy does it deliver.
'Man of Steel' is a movie you CANNOT miss. One more thing to your bucket list. Have a blast.
