2. Yeah, I saw that.
For some strange reason, it's not making me want to see the movie more.

5. I'm still fairly undecided.
But that clip makes me want to see it even less.

For starts, the thing that makes Superman fairly boring is his invincibility. Having a bullet bounce off of his eyeball without even blinking makes him even more invincible than he needs to be. Superman was more interesting when he was a Fleischer cartoon and would flinch when socked by a goon, or an escaped gorilla, or some mad scientists ray gun.

But more importantly, it's just more over-reliance on CGI and slow motion action scenes.

8. My wish?
A good movie for a reasonable price?

I'm not counting on it.
