Man of Steel

Henry Cavill is breathtaking as the MAN OF STEEL (and I mean *breathtaking*). The film, on the other hand, leaps tall buildings but doesn’t quite fly. Despite some nice new touches, the script is too mechanical at points and ignores an essential aspect of Superman’s character in others. And a little levity wouldn’t hurt; we’re talking men in tights here, guys. Overall, a B-. –YSM
