Tampa Bay Times - MAN OF STEEL is more than just Avengers-sized escapism; it's an artistic introduction to a movie superhero we only thought we knew., Chicago Sun-Times - The movie delivers on the promise of its title and then some., Film.com - If the word ôepicö has lost its meaning in the throes of recent summers, MAN OF STEEL forcefully redefines it.

Additional Information
Superman flies back onto the big screen in this Warner production directed by Zack Snyder (WATCHMEN), produced by Christopher Nolan (THE DARK KNIGHT), and featuring a screenplay by David Goyer (BLADE, THE DARK KNIGHT). Born on the alien planet of Krypton, Kal-El is sent by his parents to live on planet Earth, where he is given the name Clark by kindly farmer Jonathan Kent (Kevin Costner) and his wife, Martha (Diane Lane), who raise him as if he were their own son. As a young boy,Clark displays incredible superpowers that instill him with a profound sense of personal responsibility. Later, the amiable Clark (Henry Cavill) becomes a reporter for the Metropolis newspaper 'The Daily Planet,' and strikes up a friendship with crackerjack journalist Lois Lane (Amy Adams). But when his new world is attacked by a force that humans are powerless to defend themselves against, Clark assumes the identity of Superman and fights to protect the entire human race. Academy Award-nominated actor Michael Shannon (REVOLUTIONARY ROAD, BOARDWALK EMPIRE) co-stars as General Zod and Laurence Fishburne steps into the role of 'Daily Planet' editor-in-chief Perry White. Russell Crowe and Christopher Meloni co-star.
