The craft behind this film is astonishing

Every choice in Man of Steel feels deliberate. The framing, the pacing, the oil rig rescue — Zack Snyder is operating at a level most filmmakers never reach. It's the kind of film you study rather than just watch.

The ending absolutely floored me

Man of Steel builds so carefully to its conclusion that when it arrives you feel genuinely moved. The the immigrant experience thread pays off in a way that's earned rather than manipulative. Couldn't sleep afterward.

Stayed with me for weeks

Man of Steel ended and I sat with it for weeks. The the immigrant experience theme kept circling back. I'd be doing something mundane and the Zod fight in Metropolis would pop into my head. That kind of resonance is rare.

Dated in some ways but still powerful

Some elements of Man of Steel show their age, but the core of it — the immigrant experience, the reimagined Kryptonian mythology — hasn't diminished at all. Films this good age better than almost anything else.

Disappointed given the reputation

Man of Steel is technically accomplished and I understand its place in film history. But it left me cold. The the immigrant experience element felt mechanical and I never connected emotionally. Maybe I'll try again.
