While some comic book effects can be overlooked, though we will criticize them, others... rules created by that reality, were broken, and disbelief shattered. Kryptonite not affecting Superman matters. Details created by sustain, the illusionary world's reality.
Occhi's not the only one to find this movie... mediocre. The movie's OK, not great, especially in face of the original, as this remake is almost a copy in many regards, the live (Smallville) and animated (Superman/Justice League) tv series that just do... better.
There was another reviewer that was right. A lot of us will end up watching for nostalgia anyway. Franchise marketing leads to crushing some quality on its own weight. Hey, it could've been worse.
