I remember wanting to see this movie when it first came out in theaters, but back then I wasn't into going to the theater very often, and I don't know why I never really watched it after it was released digitally but I didn't. I hopped onto Max today with the intent to find a movie to watch. Batman vs Superman popped up, and I thought now would be a good time to give Man of Steel a go and then check out Batman Vs Superman after. Here is my quick recap: Look Krypton. We are all powerful and have all this technology and exist on thousands of planets yet somehow we are dying off because of resource mining on the main planet. Send off the baby. Now we die. Oh, bad Kryptonians were sent off Krypton to a prison ship. This is important for later. Look Clark is growing up and not fitting in. Oh no. Clark's dad died. Wait ... really?! Why would you do that! Now Clark is a man and still not fitting in, but he likes to help where he can. Hey look, a reporter lady figured out he was an alien. Then the bad Kryptonians somehow survive while the rest of them die and find Earth. They want Kal-El. He gives himself up. Also General Zod wants Lois Lane too for some reason? Did I miss why she was important to Kryptonians? Anyway, Clark finds out that General Zod wants to take over earth and create a new Krypton. That's when the takeover of earth starts along with fighting and destruction begins and boy is there a lot of destruction. I honestly don't know how I feel about Man of Steel. It was more of an alien invasion story than an actual Superman movie and that made me sad.
