Neither is exactly a critical or fan favorite.
I would have to go with Man of Steel, although I appreciate the more "human" approach SR took.

Man of Steel is an enjoyable movie, even if it’s poorly shot and somewhat flatly written.
Superman Returns is a well-crafted movie technically, but it’s boring. Not all that enjoyable.

Superman Returns has heart at the core, but is boring. I always fast forward scenes every rewatch. I can’t remember actually watching it all the way through since I saw it in theaters.
Man of Steel is a better movie overall. It feels like a sci-if alien invasion film. It has a cool element to it.
So I pick man of steel.

Superman Returns is a very bland attempt to recreate the Superman universe depicted in the original movies, only devoid of the charm inherent in those movies. It's a forgettable bore of a film.
Man of Steel is a poorly conceived attempt at rebooting Superman by doing another origin story. Snyder was never going to surpass what Richard Donner had done way back in 1978 and of course he didn't. It's not a good movie, but it does feature some effective scenes such as the arrival of the Kryptonians and their message to Earth. The terraforming plot was also pretty neat. Overall, I prefer this one. Still not a good movie, however.

Returns is better because it respects the almighty Donnerverse. MOS is the character assassination of Superman.

Man of Steel
it's one of not all that many super hero movies that's worth re-watching here and there unlike Superman Returns which was watchable but forgettable.

MoS. Tried to be more than a dumb superhero action movie.

I'm of the opinion there is a good movie buried in between all the convoluted muck of Man of Steel, meanwhile Superman Returns is just a boring movie.

Both are terrible for different reasons.

Both movies have strengths and weaknesses, but Man of Steel holds up better although it has the worst portrayal of Superman that I have ever seen.

But the ending was ridiculous. I definitely it has the best action of any Superman movie which is what I expect from a comic book movie. Full Disclosure: I am not a fan of the Christopher reeves ones. |
