Trailer Review - Man of Steel




Man of Steel
1st Teaser Trailer
Watch It Here


Person of Interest: Henry Cavill is...a hitch-hiker and a new member of The Deadliest Catch.

Scene Pop: The sonic boom at the end, though I much preferred the kid with the cape.

Briggs Breakdown: Um...... One sonic boom and plagiarizing the score of Lord of the Rings.

Effective?: Inconclusive.

Check it Out?: For myself, hell yes. I genuinely love this trailer, despite its shortcomings and non-conformity to the expectations of comic book fans and normal audiences. Sure, the Malick-esque imagery could be toxic if Zack Snyder abuses it in the final film, not to mention infuriate those still spurned by Superman Returns, and everyone including myself had the same jokes and whines about it. However, there is time for future teasers and trailers for all of the punching and winking and flying. This is giant turnaround from the teaser poster and really beautiful to take in, even when you watch the second version with Kevin Costner replacing over Russell Crowe's narration. Both are striking but I prefer Crowe's a little more; More majestic than salt of the earth.
