Man of Steel is still a mixed bag of nuts. Audiences praise the performance of General Zod, Lois, Supes himself, pretty much perfect casting all around. If it weren't for the shaky-cam style of filming, I'd probably watch this at least every few years. Thankfully, much like JJ Abrams, Snyder abandoned the shaky-shaky after this, which delivered a more visually-pleasing BvS sequel. Listening back, eesh that intro was from the video version, I dropped that intro ages ago. This was an exciting time, as the previous Superman movie Returns was underwhelming. It, like this- had perfect casting all around, but was more of a thematic approach, rather than delivering on amazing action sequences and quote-worthy moments.
While Marvel released 4 origin movies before assembling 2012s The Avengers, DC only released this and BvS before diving into the Justice League opportunity. I think a direct sequel to this before JL would've been a smart move. There's such a great cast, more to explore, sadly it seems we'll never get another Cavill-led Superman movie. Even in this years' The Flash, they used SuperGirl and cameo'd some other versions of Supes but I didn't hear anything about Henry's.
