Okay, let me get this out of the way first and say: this is as testosterone-charged as a Superman movie could ever get! Russell Crowe, Kevin Costner, Henry Cavill and produced by Christopher Nolan? C'mon!
While i have no doubt that this destined to be another Nolan blockbuster, i just find it (well, the trailer at least) too presumptuous and overbearing featuring lines like:
1. Russel Crowe (Superman's father) in his usual Gladiator-creepy-voice telling Superman's mom "He'll be a god to them." before they send baby Superman to Earth.
2. Russel Crowe (again!): You will give the people of Earth and ideal to strive towards. They'll race behind you, they will stumble, they will fall. But in time, they will join you in the sun. In time, you will help them accomplish wonders.
Thank you Russell Crowe's Man of Steel character for single-handedly making the movie appear as presumptuous as can be.
