BEST BUY MAN OF STEEL BLU RAY MOVIE
Aside from those very minor niggles, this movie is very close to perfection. The final battle goes on a little longer than was needed and finally there is a writing decision re: Jonathan Kent that I didn't care for. As others have mentioned, this works better for Batman (vengeance) than it does Superman (hope).
So why only 4.5 stars? The pallet used is a little too muted, requested by Warner Bros and Christopher Nolan off the back of the Dark Knight trilogy. There isn't a bad acting performance in the entire movie. Snyder's visuals are the best of any Superhero director in my humble opinion. Keeping this concept in mind, I think this movie is almost excellent. In other words, how would the world react if they discovered a being with Superman's powers was real - a line of dialogue in the movie spoken by Perry White says as much. Furthermore, this project is designed to ignore all other versions and is essentially a 'first contact' story. Some people have taken issue with Snyder about the story in this movie and seem unaware that he didn't write it David Goyer and Christopher Nolan did. The second is Zack Snyder and views on his work are divisive. Man of Steel is far more accurate to the Superman mythos but again, is a version - there are multiple takes on this character. He doesn't throw cellophane 'S' shields at villains etc so this is why I refer to Reeve as playing a 'version'. Some people have an issue with Man of Steel because it is not that version. As a kid, I liked all 4 movies and liked II, I, IV and III in order of preference. Christopher Reeve portrayed a beloved 'version' of this character.
Let me get two things out of the way that affect some peoples views on this film. If you don't care much about special features, this is a great buy! So, no Journey of Discovery: Creating Man of Steel and Planet Krypton special features for the Indian audience, which is a bummer and I hate Sony DADC for doing that to us. The entire disc 2 that you find in the US release of the movie is missing in the Indian release. I kinda wish Snyder didn't go for that and instead keep it clean and crisp like The Avengers bluray. The graininess you see is Snyder's style to shooting and has nothing to do with the bluray transference. In terms of picture quality, don't let the grainy effect bug you. However, the bass might be too high at times. This is a serious movie unlike all those Marvel movies that seem cartoony at times. Snyder, Goyer, and Nolan's treatment of Superman is extremely well-done. When the bluray release was announced, it was a no-brainer. I loved the Man of Steel movie watching it in theatre. If you have no interest in that, its better to stick to the 2d only version, as the 3d is not impressive. This is worth buying only for the metal case.
I tried to contact amazon a few times but they refused to reply on why the book no longer comes with the pack. The set released in India is missing the extra bonus disc available in the US version which contains the Maximum Movie Mode type video commentary and a faux-documentary.Īnd also worth noting is that it does not include the "Art of Man of Steel" book which used to come with this box earlier and is mentioned in one of the reviews. There are very few bonus features on the 2d disc. The 2d version is looks great and the 7.1 DTS-HD MA soundtrack is supurb. It was post-converted to 3d, so it results in jarring motions in the battle scenes filled with vfx. The 3d version of the movie is not so good. The movie itself is good, it initially may feel dissapointing, but it grows on you after repeat viewings. This edition contains nice collector's edition metal box which doubles up as cool show piece. Single Blu-Ray 3D disc only NOT 2 DISC pack
