With Christopher Nolan, the director of the "Dark Knight" trilogy escorting the script, "Superman: Man of Steel" does not have the neoclassical style of Nolan's films, nor the slowness of Snyder's comics. The camera is used, but successfully tells a story full of positive energy, and blazes a new path for superhero action.
"Superman: Man of Steel" has too much sunshine compared to the gloomy "Dark Knight". When Clark Kent was tortured by superpowers as a child, he at least had his mother to comfort him, and Bruce Wayne, who lost his parents, , you can only spend the rest of your life in the shadows.
Another example is that the adult Clark Kent can return to his mother's arms after traveling around, and although Bruce Wayne returns to the warm golden nest, after all, only the old housekeeper accompanies him.
In terms of family affection, "Superman: Man of Steel" is very different from "The Dark Knight". In "Man of Steel", Kent was bound by his earth father, and in the end, it was his father who gave Superman great support. His mother earth (angering for his mother, General Ozod can also prove that mother is important to him); and in the "Dark Knight" series, the three roles of master ninja, old housekeeper and sheriff have always acted as Batman's father. Talk about the influence of patriarchy. "Man of Steel" sets the role of mother so important, which is a brave attempt in today's increasingly rampant patriarchy (even McDonald's has advertised for father, what else can you say?).
Superman's Kryptonian parents and Earth's parents joined forces to bring out the three questions of "who am I", "where do I come from" and "where am I going" to Superman, and solve this set of problems.
The newly born Superman was sent to Earth by his parents on Krypton, and buried the questions of "Who am I" and "Where do I come from?" The Earth's father's control of Superman's abilities deepened these two questions and brought them out. "Where am I going?" question. With the "accident" of the earth's father, Superman began to seek answers by doing part-time jobs around the world, which reminded me of Moses Wu in "One Word Worth Ten Thousand".
Without the control of Father Earth, Superman can still help others when he doesn't solve all problems, but he can't find a suitable way. The two questions suddenly became clear. At this time, the film was only about an hour old, and other superheroes understood this problem, and it took an hour and a half at the fastest.
In the end, the one who gave Superman to believe in the earthlings and protected the earthlings was still his own mother earth. She would support him no matter what. She knew that Kent's heroic heart had been suppressed for too long and needed to be released.
Therefore, "Superman: Man of Steel" still has a core of family affection behind the fight that destroyed most of the metropolis and the sky into the earth. Although this family affection also has the support of the fathers (Krypton's father), but the mother's emotions are more. , This family affection also helped Superman save the detours that other superheroes took.
