(Reposted with minor alterations from my Resetera post .) I've always had the opinion that Man of Steel is a fine movie. Occasionally my stance is it's a great Dragon Ball Z film, and a mediocre at best Superman film. It never really made me angry, because there ARE some good parts to it. But last night I read Superman: Birthright and Superman: Secret Origin, and the more I read of each one, the more I realize that I only think Man of Steel is "fine" when viewed in a vacuum.
