For Krypton to rise... Earth must fall.

This film is by far the darkest Superman origin story yet. And with good reason.

  • Krypton's destruction. While inevitable and of no surprise to any viewer even remotely familiar, is utterly horrific. The entire planet self-implodes with mass eruptions consuming cities and wildlife in an instant. And we're even treated to Lara getting immolated up close with no cut away.
    • Worse still, it was caused by Kryptonians mining their planet's core in a desperate attempt to gather resources. They doomed themselves to extinction and Jor-El was the only one who realized it. He tried to convince the council to evacuate but their free will prevented them from seeing reason and they refused.
  • Zod's threatening speech to Lara, moments before he is sent into the Phantom Zone. His cold hateful stare combined with his unkempt rage demonstrates how far he has fallen. To think that he was once a well-respected leader and a good friend of Jor-El, whom he murdered out of spite. Now he intends to hunt down his infant son.

You think your son is safe? I will find him. I will find him, Lara. I WILL FIND HIM!!!'
