i liked this film. didn't love it, but enjoyed it.

as for the lack of black people (or minorities), COME ON! why don't we have a campaign to add some black people to the original ACTION COMICS? 'cuz that was obviously what singer used as his template, along with the Donner movie. i think it's really sad to go and watch a summer action movie, and come out wondering where are the black people.

but i guess that's why the reviewer found the film to be without laughs or tears, 'cuz he was too busy socially critiquing it to actually relax and enjoy it. sheesh.

btw i did find the messianic imagery annoying - not for religious reasons, but simply because it was too hamfisted (stabbed in the side, empty tomb, etc). but the biggest irritation for me was the introduction of the kid (SPOILERS!), 'cuz i was watching it as a comics reader first, and the kid basically creates a huge problem for any potential sequels.
