Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is a decent enough place for the start of the DC series of movies that will compete with the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but it really doesn't manage to improve on the Christopher Reeve Superman. I dislike some of the casting choices in the series so far, but Henry Cavill is okay.

Man of Steel is a highly entertaining movie. I especially enjoy the portrayal of how Superman has to deal with his human or emotional side leading him to grapple with many of the same decisions that we all make to define ourselves. And of course Amy Adams is a great Lois Lane.

Superman is my childhood hero. This version of this story is amazing. I had no hope for it when it was announced but was blown away when the trailers hit. Then I went and saw this in the theater and really liked it. I had to buy it on Blu ray as it's a excellent part of my collection.

Overall the movie works fine and I believe it can translate into better sequels for the series. I thought the choice for Superman was a good one. It is hard to point to what is missing in the movie but it left me feeling that it could have been much better. It is also exceptionally longer than it needed to be. It could have removed a good bit of the film that wound up being useless "filler", such as a couple of his memories that were supposed to point out how he adapted into our world and developed his humanity. His relationship with his earthly father was a bit annoying at times and I felt the writers did not provide his character a meaningful death although it appeared that was their intention. They also have Lois Lane track down Clark Kent as Superman as part of the story so there is no mystery there. This made the ending of the movie seem a bit pointless, in my opinion.

I enjoyed this story line and this is a good start as long as you stay on the Z. Snyder path. The 4K looks pretty good and the sound is punchy although not the very best.

I thought that this was a very good superhero movie, though not the best. The special effects are great. They made Krypton look beautiful and the fights scenes are pretty amazing. I thought the flashbacks sort of threw off the flow of the movie. I think there were better ways to incorporate those parts of the story.

This movie got a bad wrap by some fanboys in my opinion. I enjoyed the heck out of this movie and recommend it to any Superman fan. It was ALMOST too much action, it's a fine line, but i don't think it was crossed. Glad i went out on a limb and purchased to Blu Ray without previously seeing the movie at the theater.

Finally a great superman movie! We only waited all of these years. Some complain that the movie is too dark, or not heroic, but I think it is a great approach of an icon. It is kind of hard to keep it from being cheesy, so maybe a little bit of a dark edge is nessecary.

Should have bought this movie earlier. Since it’s a Zack Snyder movie the details are great. Wish it had a little more time to the story. Love the audio love the graphics.

I have had this on blu-ray since the movie came out. I really liked this movie. Since I have upgraded my home theater to 4K standards, I am also starting to upgrade my movie collection (some of it, anyway) to 4K as well. Beautiful picture compared to 1080P.

Movie is just as advertised, Best Buy delivered my movie in Excellent Condition and it even came with the Slip Cover. Superman movies are always enjoyable, a must have in your own Entertainment Collection.

This movie is my favorite ans watching it in 4k is the ultimate experience. The only downer is that its missing the directors commentary. It's listed on the slipcase and box but is nowhere to be found. I email warner bros. in regards to this bit haven't received an answer

I liked the origin story, other background sequences. Complaints would center around how (like all other movies) directors/writers always draw focus to the incompetence of those in command, as if they aren't even attempting to do the "right things" (some aren't, of course). Worthy of a yearly watch.

This movie is just awesome! I was big fan of the old superman movies, but this one is just a thing a part. When the tag of the first one was 'You'll believe a man can fly' This one should be 'You'll believe superman exist'. From the blu-ray in particular the extras are just fantastic!

At first i was picking at some of the things they changed in the storyline but after watching the whole movie i had to say i enjoyed it flaws and all. There were great special effects,great fight scenes,and the acting was pretty good. Zack Snyder did good hopefully the sequel can improve on the first outing...

Man of Steel was a good refresher before Batman vs Superman Dawn of Justice. It reminded me of how Zach Snyder told the origin story of Superman and how the citizens of planet Earth treat him. As this appears to be central to the plot line of Dawn of Justice, it seemed to go back and review.

While I do really enjoy this movie, and the transfer is great, it was supposed to come with a digital copy and did not. BB tried to replace it, but they just sent the same movie again. Great movie though.

And by that, I mean Superman Returns, hee hee. Man Of Steel is awesome from start to finish and I, of course, had to buy Batman V Superman and Justice League of course. Why is Michael Shannon cast as the bad guy in like every movie he's in? :)

This movie was better than expected. Many details that I did not know from previous versions where brought to light in this one. Very clean and colorful on the big screen. Seemed to be over too quickly though. Felt there should have been a little more love in it like previous versions.

Really enjoyed this reboot of Superman. Especially enjoyed Diane Lane and Kevin Cosner as Clark;s parents. I enjoyed the way the early years of Clark were told in flashback instead of chronologically. Great picture and sound on this 4K disc. Recommended.
