Man of Steel.

Not to long ago I saw Man of Steel. I thought it was a very good movie, but the one thing I would improve was how long it was. The movie lasted almost 2hrs and 30 mins. I got a bit antsy waiting for it to be over. But on a good note, the roles for  Martha Kent ( played by Diane Lane), and Jonathan Kent ( played by Kevin Costner),were cast very well. I was entertained the whole time, and was interested to see the changes they made to make it more modern. The plot is similar to the original superman. Kal-El or Superman is sent to Earth because Krypton is about to blow. The same original story line, for the beginning , but they skip the scene where his "earth parents" find him in the ship out in the fields. They skip right to him being an adult. Throughout the movie they continue to jump back and fourth between his childhood, and adulthood. After being sent to earth, and growing up, Clark must defeat the evil General Zod. At the same time he must get the government to trust him. The ending shows him getting a job at the daily newspaper to be a reporter. The final scene ends with him smiling at Lois, setting up the story to unwind. Of the overall experience, I would rate this movie four stars out of five.
