Opus on "Superman Returns"

And another of my favorite critics comes away from Superman Returns disappointed.

Here’s Jason Morehead, otherwise known as Opus, on Bryan Singer’s Man of Steel.

Please observe his cautionary note:

…as my wife and I discussed the film after seeing it, we found ourselves reflecting on several reasons why the film didn’t work nearly as well as we’d hoped or thought it might. Mind you, we still enjoyed it, but like X-Men: The Last Stand, it felt lacking in some rather substantial ways.

While I normally try to avoid spoilers whenever I’m writing about a movie, I might cross the line at certain points within this entry. Consider yourself warned.
