Pretty Good
Idk what everyone else expected, but I expected a mystery/thriller and I got what I paid for, this was also realistic to how some humans react to certain situations. Great acting by Cavill as he put on a solid American accent.

shareI think it was dumb to not even reveal what the heck was in the briefcase though. Cavill did put in a solid performance, however. But his accent... Ehh.. Could use some work.
How does it feel to be deconstructed?share
I didn't think so, Cavill just sold me his Superman ticket no doubt. He proved he can hold his own in Immortals and now he proved he can do a solid American accent, so yeah I will see Man of Steel.
shareI've seen him do a better American accent in "Blood Creek", which is a terrible movie but he was good in it. But like I said, except for the accent, I thought Cavill did a fine job here. He was the only actor in the movie who I saw put actual effort into his performance.
That's part of the good qualities about Cavill as an actor - he's a genuine "tryer". Even if given crappy material to work with.
But don't get me wrong - Cavill had me sold that he was going to be an awesome Superman LONG before this. "The Tudors" showcased that he could definitely act and "Immortals" showed that he had the charisma to star in a leading role. And finally, of course.... Just look at the guy. He looks EXACTLY like the comic book Superman.
So I have faith in him to be a great Superman regardless of how bland I thought this movie was.

I did watch Henry Cavill in th Tudors and he was pretty good in that and in Immortals which was a far better film that this.

I just expected the action scenes to be atleast slightly entertaining and to feel like Cavill actually had a family to rescue. He felt more like he was trying to rescue his lunch for the day. I cant blame him thought that plot was full of holes.

I just saw it and definitely thought it was better then 4.9, i mean its not a movie you could watch more then once and maybe my bias for Henry made me like it more but it was good for a boring night with the girlfriend
Kill them all, Let God sort em out
Maybe were different on that one. I want to like Cavill but he just hasnt done anything for me in this or Immortals. That being said I haven't seen the Tudors, I hear he is good in that.

Well his character wasn't a trained fighter so I wouldn't expect awesome fight scenes or action scenes that don't fit the character. It was very believable how Cavill played his character and he was trying to find his family first then tried to save them towards the end.
shareI understand what you mean about the fight scenes. But even the car chase was boring. That is up to the director to make that interesting and he failed. Especially when you have the acting talents of Weaver and you do this with it? What about the plot? It was like a video game. Every time the plot would hit a dead end, some new character would pop up and be like "you have to go here now". Just randomly. Then at the end he just all of a sudden knows what to do and where to go. Like he is psychic. Im glad you enjoyed it but I wouldnt tell other people to go see it..... they would be wasting their money.

okay man that's you, maybe they weren't trying to be like others or be cliche, which I can appreciate
shareMe and apparently everyone else but a handful of people. If by trying to be different, you mean they were trying to not make a good movie...... then they succeeded. Like I said though.... Im glad you liked it.

The scene when he was in the bathroom was amazing. I really felt his anger, despair, and fear as the emotions washed over his face.
I agree, not sure why people didn't like it. Saw it today at a matinee and really enjoyed it!!! Sigourney, Willis and Cavill were all great in my opinion. Will definitely pick it up on blu-ray later as well.
shareYeah I liked it too, maybe they thought it was supposed to be something over the top.
shareI like it too. I have just pre-ordered Blu-Ray edition as it will be released in France next week.
