Man of Steel (FULL MOVIE REACTION)
Added 2024-08-16 15:00:10 +0000 UTC
Hey guys!
FINALLY!!!! We get to start the DC universe. We aren't necessarily going to do the same thing with DC that we did with Marvel (Marvel Mondays) but we are dipping our toes in the water now!
I REALLY enjoyed this movie and thought the cast was absolutely INSANE! That being said, my main criticism of this movie was that it lacked depth. I go into this WAY MORE in the reaction.
Let me know what you guys think of this film and what you think of DC vs. Marvel! I always thought of myself as a Marvel dude. idk though. Let's see!
Love you all so much!
Love,
Alex
the movie is so DAMN quiet lol

Dude you gotta watch Batman V Superman. You better finish the Snyder verse. But I will say it helps to have some superman background and context before you watch this but that's neither here nor there. Watch the Snyder verse bubba!!!

You are being a dumbass, responding to your questions. They gave you the context and the backstory but you were busy talking and not paying attention. With your new method of uploading these you have the ability to pause the video as we watch it with you while you react and not miss the context and backstory.

"That's a man! That's a fucking man!" Ikr? God d*mn that man is fine! Hard to believe he was bullied in school. Anyway, I think you should react to Wonder Woman, Batman vs. Superman, Wonder Woman 84, Aquaman, and Justice League(Zack Snyder's Cut). Imo, I think DC was doing very well when Zack Snyder was in charge but now with James Gunn, it's falling apart a bit.

Funny note at the end, talking about how the glasses don't make any difference... Henry Cavill walked around for a long time at Times Square during a Superman event. Wearing a Superman T-shirt with only the glasses to disguise him and no one recognized him. So yes, no one would suspect an unassuming reporter who requires glasses to see to be the man flying around with heat vision and strong enough punch through a building. That debate has been settled for a while.

You not believing what zod says at the end when he's giving his little speech Is because you weren't listening in the beginning when they were explaining, they are genetically programmed to do this trained from birth to do this. For him to not do what he did would be like trying to never use your eyes ever again even though your eyes work perfectly. Or trying to get you to never say Gooch Ever again. It's just not possible. He never had a choice. Just like you don't...you have to say gooch.
Michael Shelton
2024-09-09 05:50:30 +0000 UTC
The bit about you needing more has to do with the fact that you know nothing about Superman and pretty much everyone else knows everything, they left a lot of that out because it wasn't necessary to show what you are missing, because almost everybody else knows. I mean, he's been around since the 1930s.

Marvel will hold your hand as its target audience is much broader. DC goes in knowing that we all (or at least most) already know who Clark is being that there were 5 Superman movies before this, and Smallville which is about Clark growing up in smallville and went on for like 10 years. Not to mention the DC animated shows and movies. I love both Marvel and DC just need to change my perspective on the childish fun side of marvel or the more complex mature story’s of DC. Great reaction tho, super fun!

Bummed you didn't connect to the characters and story on an emotional level. Man of Steel is one of my all-time favorite movies BECAUSE of the emotions I felt, especially when Superman was forced to kill Zod. I think its probably like other commentators have said, most people go into it knowing the origins and canon already, so it might take less effort to make that connection. In any case, it might be worth a rewatch after you do some research or watch something like Smallville to give you more background. It's a phenomenal movie, and Henry Cavill is THE Superman, imo. Love you!! ❤️

'Smallville' ran on the CW from 2001-2011 covering Clark’s youth. I never thought about it but you’re right, this movie only highlights that time. Not that this continues that story. What it does do is show differences between this world and that one.

You should watch Smallville

Alex just a fyi this movie doesn’t have depth bc they have told the Superman story plenty of times. Bc unfortunately the dc universe lacks a universe like marvel has built. They constantly hitting the reset button in dc because there movies are just bad representation of the characters. If you wanna learn more about Clark Kent watch the old show smallvile explains his early story well.

2024-08-20 04:42:21 +0000 UTC
It was an enjoyable enough movie, but fairly forgettable.
The trailers made it look so good with the voiceover from Jor'El and the snow swirling around Superman's fist as he gathers energy to launch himself into flight, but I found the movie after about the first 30 minutes kind of one silly decision after another. There definitely isn't any depth whatsoever, another comment here says they're relying on people's knowledge of the story which is fair but also a bit silly for the filmmakers to do, if that were the case, not everyone is as old as me, or has my name xD
The world engines... cool premise. But... why on earth would they, after having acknowledged the gravity manipulation, and trying to fire missiles in to the manipulated fields only to see them go haywire, would they ever send planes in *closer* to fire missiles which are just still going to go haywire, and not think "oh wait, planes probably are going to get messed up by that too". There's a lot of stupid things like this in the movie which annoys me a lot haha, but yeah.
And the killing of Zod... just no. Superman's thing is that he does not kill. Hell, even in the old Mortal Kombat games (which are fairly famous for violent death animations and such), the Mortal Kombat vs DC game had superman in it and he could not kill his opponents. His finishers were called "Heroic Brutality" rather than "Fatality". They were still very violent, obviously, but yeah.
I'm not even a comic book nerd (not that there's anything wrong with comic book nerds), but I know that much.
Anyway, I'm glad you enjoyed it. IMO the only really good DC movie is the first Wonder Woman movie, but watch them all and see what you think. I've watched the Snyder cuts of JL and BvS and didn't think they were really any improvement on the theatrical release, but I'm probably in the minority who think that. I did enjoy BvS more than MoS though, and was sad to find out that Affleck wasn't going to continue his role as Batman because I think he did a great job, but it is what it is.
Have a great trip in Japan! Might go watch the punisher with you now :D

As a lot have recommended Alex, do NOT watch the regular theatrical cuts of Batman V Superman and Justice League, you have to watch Zack Snyder's Directors cut versions of each. They are WILDLY different from what Warner Brothers released, especially Justice League by Joss Whedon who ruined that film after Zack's daughter went through a tragedy and he had to leave the film. They ruined the film, and their opportunity to ever battle Marvel at that time by doing so.

Never seen it. There's no point in me watching it. I straight-up hate Batman so much that there's no amount of great acting that could make me interested (and some of my fave actors are in it...so that should tell you how hard-core my hate on for Batman is.)
Rat MacKay
2024-08-19 08:55:24 +0000 UTC
I get what you mean about lacking the arc to make you care about t the characters. I think the filmmakers relied on us having seen other Superman properties. We either saw Smallville and met him as young Clark Kent or saw other Superman movies and met him as adult Clark Kent and loved his dorky ass. Plus, in those movies, Lois didn’t love him right away, she fell in love with Superman and had to figure out that he was Clark Kent and he had to win her as Clark. We didn’t see that in this movie. They relied on us already knowing the back story, which is fine for those of us GenX or maybe older Millennials but a lot of people only know Henry Cavill as Superman and didn’t get that.

The family at the end can't run away because there's a fucking laser beam coming at them from one side and they're trapped in the corner of a set of marble stairs! Also, Lois knew Clark Kent was Superman from 30mins into the movie, she was putting up a show for the rest of her coworkers that she didn't know who he was to help conceal his secret identity. You are right, though, in that this (along with everything else in DC) is a lot of cool scenes stretched over surface level care.
Dean Tarrin
2024-08-18 15:38:30 +0000 UTC
Also - just another note. Lol the 1 point for superman for killing people. Superman historically really doesn't kill people ever. This was a pretty controversial / debated decision for the movie
Tom
2024-08-18 14:57:58 +0000 UTC
I think you have a point about some of the narrative being rushed like Lois/Clark's connection but in regards to back story or how he developed powers, etc. - from a movie standpoint it's a bit hard to do all of that for a character that's so well known since then people would just complain they are being shown stuff everyone knows about the character. - Just a note make sure you watch Zach Snyder's version of justice league and not the theatrical release. It's much longer but a much fuller story with a lot more backstory on the characters in that movie.

2024-08-18 04:03:39 +0000 UTC
When it comes to depth I feel that it could be better however not awful it’s just short and simple but also makes sense like from Lois’s perspective he saved her life with superhuman abilities that sound like a fairy tale to her so obviously that’s gonna stand out among all others however when it comes to Clark it does seem a little weird how fast he became interested in her lol, although he is a guy and she’s an attractive woman and sometimes (a lot of the time) we think with our dick and not our brain💀 I love the DC universe tho, and knowing the DC universe makes watching the boys so much better too knowing what they’re trying to base off of like Homelander is Superman, A Train is the flash, Maeve is Wonder Woman, Noir is Batman, Deep is Aquaman , etc! (Ik noir being Batman is a stretch because noir isn’t a billionaire but they were going for that moves in the shadows and is super stealthy Batman with noir)

Man Of Steel, Batman Vs Superman, Wonder Woman, Suicide Squad Zack Synders Justice League, AquaMan, Birds Of Prey, Wonder Woman 1984, The Suicide Squad, Aquaman 2, The Flash those are the movie orders if you plan on ending up watching em all would love to see more people react to the DC Universe i get it Marvel is badass but cmon Bob Kane created one of the most badass ass kickers on the planet Bruce Wayne.

Alex if you want more backstory and to see Clark growing up learning about his powers then you should watch Smallville!
We also need to watch Brightburn!
Josh Bruner
2024-08-17 20:11:35 +0000 UTC
You're right and you're absolutely wrong. A few years earlier from this, we got the reboot with Brandon Routh, and we had Smallville running for 10 seasons/11 years, and the OG films - all explained his origins of everything you mention (including trying out for sports teams and why he couldn't) - and people bitched about having to watch the "origins" again and again of Batman and Superman, if you think i'm wrong, go look up the headlines when those movies were announced.

Now that I say that, the music/action sequences are just fine in comparison. Maybe that's just movies in general lately have such low volume dialogue.
Andrew Pudwill
2024-08-17 15:56:50 +0000 UTC
Volume is a bit quiet on the movie compared to your audio, hard to hear their dialogue without getting blasted with yours. Thanks for the reaction Alex!
Prefer DC comic characters but MCU through phase 3 just did it better!
Andrew Pudwill
2024-08-17 15:54:13 +0000 UTC
MCU is better, in my personal opinion. I like that they make you feel like you’re rooting for them and you legitimately care what happens to them. You feel their pain… DCU lacks that for me… just has a disconnect for me with the characters. But that’s my opinion.

2024-08-17 15:22:37 +0000 UTC

Superman: The Movie (1978) will give you more of the build-up you’re looking for. This movie was built on the premise of people unlike you who were already familiar with Superman’s story. That said, I look forward to you continuing with the DC movies. They’re different from Marvel, not better or worse. Wonder Woman, in particular, will give you a lot of Captain America vibes (more war movie than superhero movie in many ways).
Ultimately, they did a great job on Superman but less so on Clark Kent.
Paul B
2024-08-17 04:59:38 +0000 UTC
That one is good. I hear the second one is weird and rapey however I haven’t seen it. It’s one of the few dc movies I’ve never seen. Is it bad? (Wonder Woman 1984)
Matthew
2024-08-17 04:50:16 +0000 UTC
I’m not saying it wasn’t a terrible script, I’m saying it was super over hated for what it was and that marvel has had some blame for just being a better movie universe, it kind of puts other cinematic universes to shame. Batman vs Superman was not nearly as bad as say the new flash movie nor was it as good as say Thor.
RCNerdEmoji
2024-08-17 03:37:56 +0000 UTC
Would've been weird but also kinda funny if Superman said at the end where he was on his knees, Lois was comforting him in the station if he just said "I can smell the ocean".
Also where did Alex go during the end credits??! He went away for 3 seconds and somebody else was there. Weird.

Alex should watch Brightburn! I fell in love with The Avengers first and was a MCU fan from there. I enjoy the darker tones of DC, but their movies are usually a miss for me. Would've enjoyed seeing Henry play an older, wiser Superman who has mastered his powers, but it'll never be since DC cut him loose☹️. Marvel would treat him better, he's the whole package lol.

Jordan Tanner
2024-08-16 23:27:27 +0000 UTC
Alex says that he would've like to see more of Clark Kent's childhood for more depth.
But if you think about it, this Movie has probably the most Backstory for a Hero of any Super Hero movie.
Like all other Hero movies I can think of there is maybe 1 or 2 scenes of their childhood/youth, if at all.
Besides that, I liked the first half of the Movie, when it was more grounded and about Clark helping people.
I am not a fan of the 2nd half that is basically just action and a cgi firework.
And yeah the writing isn't that good.
But I feel the same way about most Marvel movies nowadays.
NinoDonDino
2024-08-16 23:03:05 +0000 UTC
100% agree with you Alex that it lacked depth. That has always been my criticism of this movie. Superman The Movie (1978) with Christopher Reeve still remains the best and most poignant one for me.
That being said, Zack Snyder has a certain style to his movies that is visually captivating at times.
Diana
2024-08-16 23:01:12 +0000 UTC
Yeah I think the movie audio was WAY to quite. Had to turn up my audio so much and could still barely hear the movie, while Alex I could hear in my whole aparment.

. All next ones going bad to worse 😅

Henry Cavil went out into public with glasses and a Superman T-shirt in New York and no one recognized him. At the end Lois does recognize him but she can’t let the other people know that or they’ll begin asking questions
RCNerdEmoji
2024-08-16 21:41:18 +0000 UTC
1:36:00 Yeah I will say that DC does a better job showing that every member of the league has a speciality.
Superman is the big gun
Wonderwoman is the versatile warrior
Cyborg the tech expert being able to hack almost any type of tech
Green lantern defensive fighter and creative thinker of the team. Either stopping massive hits for the big bads or saving civilians caught in the crossfire
Aquaman the bridge between people and overall all rounder of the team
Flash running interception, support and also being the secret weapon of the team having hidden powers that can even trump Superman
Then finally bats as the strategist and Brains of the operation.
and those are just one iteration of the original 7 members of the league comprising hundreds of different hero’s and sub teams bringing their own ideas to the fold
Only other main crew missing id say is
Martian Manhunter heart of the team being a great fighter but even better supporting the team
Then one of my favorites Shazam he’s a middle ground between Superman and wonderwoman in terms of power being stronger than wonderwoman but lacking the combat experience to fight her. He is also one of the more sly members of the team, being a kid who loves pranks
Heck some of the animated show even acknowledge that there are some enemies that only Superman can face.
One movie literally has Batman let himself get taken hostage just so he can hack into alien tech to rescue their big gun (sups) to defeat the big back.
You’d think them relying on Superman all the time would get boring but they manage to vary it up enough with the plots and set up to keep it interesting.
And if even Superman can’t kill it that’s when things start to go very bad because in DC there are very few thing that can trump Superman

They both have their highs and low points. I literally cannot wait until they cross over in the movies. It’s been in the talks before and thanks to D&W Warner Brothers discovery is already dipping its toes into the marvel/disney landscape. If you know you know

This is a pretty good movie - not a very good SUPERMAN movie, to be sure - but a pretty good scifi flick. Snyder doesn't understand the character of Superman, and that continues in Batman V Superman (where he also shows he doesn't understand Batman), and his Justice League (where he shows he just doesn't really understand ANY of the DC heroes). But they are still watchable. But there's no contest between these DC films and Marvel. Marvel actually shows respect for their characters and that's why they are so much more successful.

I’m not like a “Zack Snyder ride or die” but I love the movies I’ve seen even “legend of the guardians the owls of gahool” i love the visuals and the darker tone (i just rewatched it last night) but I’m not like a Snyder extremist like some fans because I’m just normal some people will either hate Snyder or over love him

Batman vs Superman is not as bad a movie as people say. People back when it came out had marvel fever and didn’t like a realistic hero portrayal. The portrayal of Batman is a little rough and the plot is contrived but it’s super entertaining to watch.

DC is just now getting their shit together, so it’ll be a bumpy journey with a few gems in there. Overall enjoyable, especially to someone on the outside of the fandom with not too much knowledge of the characters. Zack Snyder should’ve never been allowed to take control of the universe

I’m sorry but snyders Superman bypasses everything Superman is supposed to be and stand for. Henry cavil crushed it but the writing and direction of the character is not Superman to me. In all of the dark heroes and themes Clark is the one man who brings light and hope to the scene. We don’t need to see him struggle with morality Superman should be the bar for morality

I’m a log time fan of Superman, and just rewatched Smallville as an adult. Yes it’s a bit old, and it’s 10 seasons. However, if you keen to dive in to a good origin, I do recommend it. For my sake you don’t have to make reactions videos of it, just enjoy it on your personal time.

It’s hard to say on marvel vs DC
Marvel has the best live action films out for the 2.
While DC has easily the best animated tv shows and films period.
But their live action stuff isn’t great they have a few good eggs but the majority are pretty rotten.
But If I had to put marvel’s live action vs DC’s animation team dc wins ever time.
The DCAU film series alone is god tier.
And this isn’t even including DC’s elseworld stories (basically DC’s what if).

I've never been a big fan of Superman, but the construction of a Hero has never been as well done as in Smallville in my opinion. There's a lot of focus on his upbringing and the principles his parents passed on to him. It's incredible to watch! But there are 10 seasons, complicated, right? LOL
Gui Palomino

I think this is still the best of the DCEU movies, but it is still Zack Snyder: visually beautiful but emotionally and narratively shallow.

If anyone knows, with the DC Universe being “rebooted” where do these movies fall?
Also DC movies are more like different takes on the story as they don’t really tell the backstory they rely on people already knowing the story. The equivalent in MCU would be Spider-Man. Everyone knows the story so why cover the origins in depth.
