Movie Review: Man of Steel



We all know Superman and what he can do. We also basically know the story of his beginnings.

Through the years, we've seen different actors portray Superman on TV and in films but the Man of Steel remained true to his mission: to do good for the benefit of mankind.


Although I will always treasure the movies where Christopher Reeve starred in, the newest Superman film starring Henry Cavill flies on its own merits. After all, the latest Clark Kent is someone easy to swoon about :)


Aside from his good looks though, this actor was able to portray his role very well. I can say the same thing about his co-stars Russell Crowe, Kevin Costner, Diane Lane, and Amy Adams as well as the rest of the cast.


I enjoyed the visual effects in Man Of Steel. The were done pretty well and could really pass off as scenes from other worlds apart from our own. We may just can't see or understand them for now. The costumes are also amazing.


There are also lessons here to be learned about bullying, being bullied, and how you deal with the issues that can show your true character. May parents and children find words of wisdom in the scenes showing Clark being raised well by his sensible earth parents.


This movie provides great entertainment. I recommend watching it if you are a fan of superheroes in general, not just Superman. There's always something about good triumphing over evil that will make you root for the good guys every time.


If you want to take home some mementos of Man Of Steel, make sure to drop by the nearest Jollibee branch near the cinema and buy one, or all, of these Superman collectibles available from Jollibee's Kids Meals:
