This is the most anime fight I've ever seen in a non-anime film.
looks like some mob psycho shit
even more interesting, the big villain is named Namek, which is a major location in Dragon Ball.
Clearly you never seen The Matrix
@@TheDevil21 The Matrix was a bunch of slow-mo gun fights. No zipping around with super-human abilities.
@@daytonpannell blah blah blah ThIs Is so anImE.. I hate when people say that to anything with over-the-top action
Faora: a good death is its own reward Soldier: getting choked by you is its own reward Faora: what Soldier: what
Ara ara, man of culture ahead.
And there's is an irony in her words "in the end evolution always wins." She was just a soldier nothing more and nothing less, but clark wasn't bound to a role, he can be anyone he wants to be. And besides, in their planet, clark was born of the natural birth after many hundred years of them having the artificial birth which actually restricted their abilities to only 1 role. He socked in the yellow sun radiation for more than 30 years. In this case the evolution was him, not her. 😯
😂😂😂🤣 Damn I love the Internet.
😹
@Frost Flurry.. Kinda agree.. But that's not all, that's only 1 point.. She also mocked how he was hesitant to fight.. Hesitant to go all out. She thought that was his weakness.. Which is not true at all. According to her, traditional revolution is being set to one role, which is not true. She was the "product of failure" just as jor el stated in the movie. And in the end, kal el proved her wrong. That's why her "evolution wins " pharse is actually can be set against her. Because evolution means change.. Kal el is the change. Her words weren't false but she overestimated herself and underestimated superman's potential. Hence why I said she wasn't the evolution, supe was. And I know she claimed that she is the revolution, but claiming proves nothing , that's why I said it's ironic coz, she is the old product of failure of krypton, against which kal was the evolution.. Not her. She is the product of age old failure.
The fact Henry Cavill didn't get a second Superman movie is absolutely unforgivable. The man was born to play that role.
its because of the batman vs superman - that sort of WAS the second movie in a sense but i agree, he should have done a trilogy of man of steel movies.
I know right, I hate everything they've done with superman post man of steel. They built this superman up so we'll only to shit on it the next movie.
@Sacrament3Dude how is that relevant LOL.
I fully agree; the man was born to play the role. While it's a shame he will never play it again I'm actually happy he isn't as they'd likely force him to do what was done to Geralt all over again, but worse.
Ok dork
If history has proven anything It is that people will never forget how good Henry Cavill is as Superman.
@Sacrament3gay
He is my Superman. ❤
This actress was severely under appreciated on this role.
VERY
She also has a role on Dark (Netflix). I knew she looked familiar.
@@fmirza21 which role
@@LucasTbooker ...Agnes Nielsen. Sister of Noah.
@@misterfreedom42 oh shit thats why her voice seems familiar
keep in mind, that the actress, who portrayed faora-ul almost quit acting as she wasn't really getting roles. she was then cast in this and made an excellent impression.
We really need a Man of Steel 2 with her in it... 😔
Yes that's true. And after this film she unfortunately didn't get any roles in the USA again. That's why she came back to Germany and has been doing very well here for the last few years. She got good and relatively many roles here
@@inotoni6148 she did Dark though. That was big. Agnes
@@BlazingSkyez exactly! I'd definitely watch another fight between Supes and Faora. It's actually way more interesting than Superman's other fights as Faora has the same powers as he has, not any more, not any less. The only technical part is how will she get out of the phantom zone- she'll surely be alive. Maybe she will get help from someone (someone can be superman's other enemies) and this time she'll come to take revenge for General Zod's death.
"She" LOL, just like Sara Douglas for the same role in Superman 2, they got a T.ranny actress to play the part. The masculine jaw, the deep set eyes, that's a man baby
Incredible what happens when a movie and their characters take themselves seriously. No cheap jokes or underlying agenda. Beautiful work.

Love the look of confusion on their faces when Supes uses his heat vision. They probably had no idea they could do that, such a thing wouldn't be possible on Krypton.
As if his super strength wasn't enough of a surprise, dude has heat vision? They probably thought "wtf else can he do?"
Imagine being first day as a soldier and you're first mission is this.

@@tommy1138 hahahahahaa
Lol exactly Thor in the mcu is a joke
Faora recognized and respected that man as a fellow soldier, even though he was incredibly outclassed physically, he had the training and bravery to fight till the end. Whereas she is tearing Superman a new one because he has zero combat training. Amazing scene and great side characters.

9 years ago, this film didn't receive the appreciation it deserved. All these years I've been tirelessly expressing how it beautifully portrays super-powered beings and the immense power they hold but sadly, no one seemed to share my enthusiasm. Thankfully, times have changed, and I'm thrilled that everyone now recognizes the greatness I saw in this film. It's truly gratifying to see its brilliance being recognized at last.
Couldn't have said it better myself. This is one of the best super hero films, and definitely the best Superman films of all time. I personally put this up there with Winter Soldier, Spider-man 2 (Toby), Logan, and X-men: Days Of Future past. Lets see how Gunn emulates this.

In the snyder cut he is much more powerful than any kryptonian. Remember clark had just started to really use his powers at this point. In justice league he was experienced AND he was enhanced by a motherbox so he was jusr fucking op

This movie did a great job showing the sheer power and destructive capabilities of Kryptonians under a yellow sun
Please tell me: what does the sun have to do with it? I don't read comics.
@@voiceofamos The solar power from yellow suns power up Kryptonians such as superman, making them godlike.
@@voiceofamos basically a kryptonian body is like a battery which absorbs the radiation of a yellow sun/stars and enhances their body on molecular level making them almost indestructible force. Krypton's sun was red and red star is completely opposite of yellow and it weakens them under it's influence.
@@voiceofamos >>> So Yellow and Blue Stars make them Godlike.. the radiation gives them super duper powers but if they're on their own planet Krypton that has red star, they're just like a normal people.
Thanks for the replies; I understand now :)
Wish we could have gotten more fight scenes like this. Man of Steel remains one of the only movies that consistently depicts how effortless it was for a superhero (especially Superman) to leap in a single bound and move so fast they practically look like teleporting. Wish Thor got portrayed in the same way.
I will never forget Twitter nerds who are never satisfied with anything that made these studios keep making stupid decisions.
That CGI is better thousand times than Flash 2023's CGI
I agree
I love that she could have killed him immediately, but decided to recognize his bravery and draw her dagger as well.
Yes!!!
Bravery? Dude was ready for a knife fight with a Kryptonian. He doesnt have balls, he has boulders between his legs lol.
@@juanpalacio7068 amen to that.
@Jamie C two kryptonians, whit the same power as Superman, whit more combat experience and technique than him couldn't defeat him, why? Oh right, because he's the protagonist and he must win
EdwardMercer no because the scrip say so
mad respect for the soldier who's ready to fight with only knife BATMAN: "Men are brave"
That split second before he is saved, the meaning behind it was perfectly relayed.
“Stabler” from o g Law & Order: SVU. He was great in this
Amen
I mean it just a movie lol
@American Dream Entertainment yeah no he doesn't. The only time he did was after he brought him back in Justice League and felt guilt for his death and the predicament they were in.
1:13 Superman laid out always makes me chuckle
This goes to show, how Kal may have had over 30 years of experience on earth, learning and adapting to all that is around him including the sun which helped him charge up for those 30 years, though he has little to no battle experience. While the other Kryptonians have had experience in battle as warriors and there can overpower Kal, they are momentarily weakened when they mask is turned off and they get exposed to everything on earth. It is amazing Zod was able to adapt to it all and even learn flight himself.
For a guy who never had a real fight in his life, taking on 2 trained veteran soldiers, he did pretty well.
You got to remember he spent his entire life in a system with a yellow star. That’s like being pumped with steroids and caffeine your entire life.
i think he did crap considering he was soaking up the sun all his life and they only just got there
Like Faora say's he is unsure of himself and his powers
Well the farmer boy had been absorbing the sun for over 30 years unlike those soldiers.
Superman is more powerful and more experienced with his powers than all Kryptonians. Difference is fighting Kryptonians always throws Superman off guard. He's literally fighting his equals in power
"You are weak, son of El. Unsure of yourself." "The fact, that you possess a sense of morality and we do not, gives us an evolutionary advantage.. and if history has proven anything.. it is that evolution always wins." "A good death is it's own reward." I love her lines.
Loved that she claimed to have no morality but she still draws knife to fight the general on his terms when she could've smeared him before ge even reached for the knife
@@joelbibeault1169 that was more pride than morality. She liked the idea of beating someone in a "fair" fight. Even though realistically, it was never fair.
@@derek96720 I think it's a weird sense of honor. He was outgunned and outmatched on every level but still stood bravely, and she seemed to respect that. I guess in a way he's her "equal" amongst humans. It's kinda like how a cat will never be the equal of a tiger, but you can still be a badass amongst cats, I guess? She recognized that he was a badass amongst humans the way she was a badass amongst Kryptonians. Her taking a moment to assure him a good death was its own reward, then choosing to meet him knife for knife, was her way of acknowledging his superiority amongst humans.
3:55 it was destructive man 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Most of the lines make no sense at all, if that is the intention.
2:58 the super speed perspective is awesome
I like everytime superman tries to fly the namek dude is like "nope" and catches his cape and starts to ragdoll him like lmao
Faora was a perfect cast. She looked so confident and proud but not in a douchey way. And that's why she was also immensely attractive.
@Wednesday 🤢🤢🤢
@Wednesday she wouldn't have been bad for this role. Sort of tailor made for this actually
Stop you'll be drooling if y'all saw her in public cut the cap
@@giorgiocartier9012 what? For brie? Bruh never. She has the most punchable face in the history of punchable faces
@Wednesday oh god no.
That soldier who pulled out a knife to fight a far more technologically advanced alien deserves a promotion
Courageous but not a good idea to bring a knife to a super villain fight.......lol
@Mr. Grumpy He had no clue what he was fighting as his team just arrived mid fight. They could not have known prior the enemies were bullet, and even rocket proof. But Stabler used all his weapons on them, and lost his team and ran out of ammo. He knew retreat was not an option after seeing how fast she was. He knew then he was going to die, and was making his last stand with the last weapon he had, and no fear. Faora knew that and recognized his heart when she said "a good death is its own reward". So yes, a promotion for his heart. As far as they knew at the start with so little data, they had an overwhelming fire superiority. 2-3 squads of what looks like Army Rangers. Hard to tell. 3 Little Birds with rockets and miniguns. 2 or more (I forget how many were taken out as they were incoming) Warthogs with air to ground rockets and GAU guns that absolutely turn armored tanks to swiss cheese in one burst. There was no way they had any reason prior to contact to know these unloading everything they had would only piss off these beings. Although the rocket did help disable an already stunned Faora at the end.

I like how you can see the train engine flying through the air at 4:35.
Nice catch!
and if u notice u can also see zod ship coming just before that
Can we just appreciate that when he drew out his knife, Faora did as well? She acknowledged his courage and decided to meet him with the same weapon. He knew it was suicide, but rather than run away, he accepted his fate and lunged.

This one fight scene in this 2013 'Man of Steel' movie is better than ALL of the fight scenes in all of the Marvel movies combined.
No way in hell, it’s definitely better than some marvel movies but not combined😂
@@sidabundai- Yes, this ONE fight scene is better than ALL of the fight scenes in ALL of the Marvel movies combined. The Marvel movies fight scenes are more 'comedic'...cartoonish...more-so action comedy, not to be taken seriously. But this one fight scene along in 'Man of Steel' has more depth. There're more gravity to the action on screen in this fight sequence. And ironically, in spite of the material being about super-powered beings from Comic Books, the fight scene here is more believable, grounded, and realistic. While in Marvel, the fight scenes have no real gravity to them. And btw, I like the Marvel movies...but DC is more authentic with the scenes. Also, the fight scenes in Zach Snyder's Justice League are far superior to the ones in Man of Steel, so by default the Marvel movies combined don't even come close.
@@fidel2xlQuit yapping. Marvel has great action scenes. DC has to scrape the bottom of the barrel to get one good fight scene a decade.
Marvel fights are serious
@@LordStarcore-qs4in STFU....I'll keep on 'yapping'. I have literally seen EVERY SINGLE Marvel movie --- I never said the fight scenes are bad. I said that the fight scenes are more 'cartoonish'. They are not as good and as realistic as the more grounded fight scenes in the DC movies. There is more of a sense of gravity with the fight scenes in the DC movies, while the fight scenes in Marvel movies, although exciting, don't have a semblance of realism. Btw, the fight scenes in the most recent HORRIBLE Marvel movies (the Marvels etc) WERE the absolute WORST.

For real. I thought "Justice League" is older than this movie
Zack snyder is the key
The most superhero fight ever
3:03 I swear when I first saw this scene in the cinema, I got goosebumps. The way they finally captured how fast something like a kryptonian would move at was a nice touch.
That combo was sick
we forget that the reason that Superman is seen as "weak" is because he doesn't want to kill everyone around him by breathing too hard
We seriously don’t see super speed characters use their speed enough, excluding the speedsters themselves obvs

Yeah. Zack Snyder always has underrated movies. Look at Watchmen. His cinematic views are just amazing. Just sucks people always get mislead by his stories.
BvS Ultimate Edition, MoS and Watchmen are all underrated
Literally the only good Superman movie that exists.
My jaw was on the floor when I saw this for the first time, literally Snyder pulled off what live action DBZ should looks like. Nothing came close to this day. Also Antje Traue as Faora-Ul was perfect, she has this elegant, seductive but very deadly eyes. And Snyder portrait of US military bravery and realism is just cherry on the top. But my favority part is still the first 20min on Krypton the whole setup and arc is sooo well done, and it was soo easily to get it wrong and become some aliens from Power Ragers with rubber spandax.

A normal kryptonian is about as strong as wonderwoman. But when Supes is reborn he gets a massive upgrade.
These were top tier Kryptonian Warrior Class soldiers too.
After watching this, none of the movies in this cinematic universe ever reached this level of ferocity and entertainment. The juxtaposition of Supes being more experienced to the environment, but less experience in actual combat to the other Krytos makes for a very interesting fight.
Coming back to this after watching The Flash. I really miss Zack Snyder 😢
Things I love about this scene: -The Kryptonians are obviously more skilled than Kal (as they are soldiers) but not nearly as strong (because of Kals extended exposure to Earths sun). -Kal repeatedly aims to separate the duo because one on one he knows he could beat them (and he does) because of this fact. -Humans are shown to be awesome in their own right through balls alone. Not a single soldier flees. -Foara Ul is genuinely threatening and intimidating, but still shows respect for bravery when she sees it.

It’s not just the exposer to the sun that makes him stronger. It’s also the codex that makes him the strongest kryptonian.

She doesn't respect Clark b/c he, in her eyes, squandered his strength when he should be using it to dominate the world. She does respect the soldier because he, despite having so little strength compared to her, was willing to make the most of it. I loved that she took a moment to acknowledge his courage, and then in a way honored him by meeting him knife for knife when she could've just picked him up and tossed him 15 miles into the side of a building.
"Soldiers Deserve Soldiers" It's a movie but dam they found a real foundation.
"and give them respect" She had ZERO respect for every human, including this Colonel Hardy. She routinely killed people she regarded as less than her - unarmed, helpless, innocent. She didn't care.
Hey SFR "She also talks about evolutionary advantage and she's not wrong" Compassion and cooperation evolved by humans for inner cohesion of the tribe and these tribes survived better. We also evolved how to fight including possibly warfare. That's why we confuse ourselves because we don't realize we are a mix of different evolved talents that allowed us to get to 8 billion so far even if we are a hot mess.
Stolen quote from Star Trek
People trash the DCEU and act like Aquaman was the first good movie they've produced. Man Of Steel was awesome and still my favorite.
Exactly
True story
That's because they're mostly marvel nut hugging fanboys. this movie was actually better than over half of the marvel movies I've seen.
My question is who the fuck is saying Aquaman is a good movie?
Agreed!!!
faora was a badass and had the guts to call him weak
Faora is the best part of this movie. All her scenes were great.
Faora is so badass, i love how calm she is delivering those lines while kicking clarks ass
You cannot prove its Clark Kent, that's dangerous misinformation and you've been alerted to our PR dep here at the Dailey Planet. 😂 😂 😂
and she lost.
@@ridor9th caz of the plot later zod realized that the atmosphere and the sun on earth empowers them
@@ridor9th she was winning but got hit with a sneak attack later.
@@ridor9th well yeah, she is the villian afterall
That‘s how any fight should look like with superhuman speed + strenght.
@@fluffycat9673 And Thanos' henchmen bullying Vision and giving Wanda a run for her money too, then later Natasha fights them hand to hand. But also in fights like these, throwing cars at stuff at each other is like having a pillow fight to them. Smashing each other into the ground should be like falling on a fluffy mattress.
Buntaichō Saber It sucks that most superhero movies get the God of War treatment where powers are never actually displayed and the fights are basically just boxing matches that occasionally break something small and unnoticeable. We should be seeing things breaking around them, using the environment like vehicles and pieces of the street as weapons, and the actual speed of the characters being shown off. This actually felt like a fight between superhumans.
@@fluffycat9673 superman in this scene = SSJ3 😁
@Rohit Joshi ohh i see.. Ty for your information 😁👍
@@fluffycat9673 Thanos never punched Cap with full force and it definitely seems like your underestimating how powerful Cap really is the feats of Thor and Thanos actually trump Superman believe it or not, but I get what you mean by the action
This is how a proper Superman vs Wonder Woman battle should look like, not that shitshow we got from Justice League, they keep nerfing her when she can easily keep up with Kryptonians, she literally gave Faora and Zod a beating 1v2.
Damn son, Zack Snyder should do Dragon Ball Z after this. This is literally the Saiyan invasion saga 😂🎉
Tatally agreed 😂😂🎉
The world wasn't just ready for this movie in 2013
The mixed reception the movie got, just proved Pa Kent was right to tell Clark to wait and hide himself. For everyone who said that Pa Kent was Out of Character end up displaying the exact same traits that the more grounded Pa Kent was wary of
Snyder cut 2021: hold my 4hr DVD.
I saw what you did there 😀
@@Syryu He told him to let kids die
@@Syryu well, you can only expect so much greatness from Kevin Costner. He's a terrible actor.
8 years later and still no DCEU film was able to match the insane action sequences (choreography, editing, VFX etc) of this movie. A MASTERPIECE !!!
BVS was pretty lit But yeah this is why Warner should just let Snyder do everything the way he wants!
ZSJL?
@@dr.hennes9420 Yep, BvS. I actually like them better than Marvel in terms of action.
ZSJL
Flying through each and every building and collapsing windows is the greatest action sequences..? This movie sucks. Screenplay,Graphics,Story sucks. The only good thing was Music and Cinematography.
One of the best fighting scenes in superhero live action films
I'm going to be frank, when I saw this movie in 2013 in theaters, it was probably one of the best experiences I had. I remember thinking this was one of, if not the best superhero movie just for sheer action and spectacle. After all of these years, I am still blown away and amazed by the cinematography, effects, and pacing of everything. It is just very intense and incredible. I don't think any other DCEU movie has come close to replicating the scale and brilliance of Man of Steel's action.
Watching this after justice league/ bvs makes the visual effects on those movies seem like garbage.
Which they are tbh
This was the best fight of any superman movie made basically should Have been longer
it's still my favorite comic book film since the Nolan Films, nothing since has been this good/accurate whether Marvel or DC
Gemel Walters I really don’t get how you can fuck a comic book up in DC specifically because DC doesn’t belong to Disney so you can go all out gore savage with any language etc... I mean the comic book already did 99% of the job all you gave to do is write the same script basically and film 🤣😂 yet all Batman are shit all Justice league are even dumber why the fuck you have aquaman in JL before Martian and Green lantern 🤦♂️🤦♂️ hell you had cyborg before 🤣😂. Out of every famous villain the JL have you chose 1 that 99% of ppl DO NOT GIVE A FUCK and don’t know 🤣😂😂🤦♂️🤦♂️ fuck sake brainiac , Darkseid, Amazo, etc .. at the very least if you carter to young kids pick one from the animated series for fuck same 🤣😂😂🤦♂️🤦♂️. The whole DC universe is just wack not good dumb on all level. It might not be all actors fault but mostly director and screen writers. Who the fuck made flash run like he handicapped 🤣😂🤦♂️🤦♂️ why is flash personality is like that ? He goofy yes but this wasn’t goofy this was straight dumb. Shazam was a total bullshit just looking at the costume it looked fake it looked like a c project that’s the best you could do for Shazam 🤣😂😂🤦♂️🤦♂️ even doomsday was wack damn it. The whole MCU is wack they can make special effect yes but that’s it the story lines are so not accurate with the comic it doesn’t even make since from xmen to avenger to IW or EG etc... since when was mystic that important 🤣😂 or marvel girl or black widow ?? Or Hawkeyes shit they got more shine then hulk 🤣😂 DC is the only shit that can be save because it doesn’t belong to Disney .... yet .
It took me ten years to learn that this kind of action sequence was literally one of a kind. And it dreads me that we may never see one like it again.
Blame the people for saying that "Wnyder doesn't understand Superman/comicbooks", when in actuality, the departure from the classic comicbook depictions of Superman was intentional and that Snyder focused more on the graphic novel aspect of comic books and translated it to film. That's why 300 was so iconic, it was literally a graphic novel transformed into film.
@@Strato_Casterrr9898 You basically just said he purposely didn’t utilize or focus on the main aspects of the characters and did his own thing. As if that would go over well with most fans of the property.
@@magmaspacer1967 then you clearly did not read my first comment. I will reply when you have understood it properly.
@@Strato_Casterrr9898 You said the departure was intentional and focused on the graphic novel aspect of comic books. You did not say what these aspects are, and you yourself said it was focusing on an element that people clearly do not like. You’re giving more credit than is deserved.
@@magmaspacer1967 oh shit, I apologize, this is a different comment thread. My bad. What were we tlaking about again?
4:12 -> Col. knows he has no chance but confronts!! That is courage!! Brave like hell
Best movie ever. Henry Cavill best superman so far.
Reeve.
Nope, Reeves is the best superman Cavil could've been the best if it weren't for snyder being terrible at writing characters
This scene alone is enough to outstand Justice League whole movie
nickys34 what the fuck are you saying
@nickys34 Is medicine that expensive in your hometown?
@nickys34 Wow, dude where to buy the stuff you takin??
@nickys34 ma'am I ain't reading that
@nickys34 I've too heard that the Superman character was a J000zeish invention too.
"A good death is its own reward" Best freaking lines ever in cinema history. Loved how Faora acknowledged his courage and decided to meet him with the same weapon. He knew it was suicide, but rather die for freedom then die for nothing.
Kinda unfair how she kept the armor on. At least remove the armor. If an M4 close up didn't pierce her armor a pocket knife won't hurt her.
@@henryjohnson-ville3834 removing armor is the dumbest thing a soldier can do, just watch Saving Private Ryan and you'll see my point, a soldier takes his head armor off for a split second and is instantly headshotted from nowhere. 🤦♂
@@wwehulk8798 So lemme guess if a M4 didn't pierce her armor a sh!tty knife would? She's a cheater cheater, pumpkin eater.
@@henryjohnson-ville3834 Oh well not her fault she's born like that. That kind of cheating is no different from how humans use guns to get a easy kill when they hunt which is also kind of cheating when u think of it. I'd say this is fair game.
@@henryjohnson-ville3834 right because the knife will pierce her invulnerable Kryptonian skin
the fights are so damn good. you can really feel that theres superheroes fighting.
Just saw the flash, and this fight sequence is still unmatched.
After 7yrs the CGI in this is still way better than movies out today
Agreed
yea mate
kzhead.info/sun/jJuulqlse5p7nZ8/bejne.html Gitar
Way better than justice league
@@CS-pg4go even better than the wonderwoman that just came out
I was blown away by Zack Snyder's vision for Superman, the way he presented action scenes in entirely new way it gave real meaning to Superman power's
The way he captures the speed of the Kryptonians is amazing. Loved the way Faora just speed through all the soldiers at 2:58
EXACTLY! O ALWAYS THOUGHT THAT...ZACK IS A GENIUS...BUT HE FELL OFF...
@@samoriab5999 fell off?💀
have u watch immortals bro is amazing
@@samoriab5999 no he didn't. the only ppl who say that are KZhead movie reviewers who hate everything
THIS IS THE BEST SUPERMAN MOVIE HANDS DOWN .
Damned If I have a billion I would definitely hire all the cast and all of the CREW of Man of Steel to do DC movies, They got everything right on this movie.
it’s been almost a decade and this still holds up as potentially the best superhero fight scene of all time
So true!
For me so true bro
Will have Man of steel 2?
Not even close to the top 10 best superhero fights.
good fight but sucks the actual plot execution was excruciating
Bro I am insanely in love with this cinematography and combat sequence
God of war...
I’m rewatching the movie right now. Shit is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Zack snyder is god of visuals....
Fr y justice league wasn’t like this
끄뤼스띠나에요 Zack would make the illest god of war movie. That dude understands mythology
That faora 4 hit combo was the baddest thing I've ever seen in a dc film period
Forgot how good this was
Her performance is criminally underrated
Agreed, in fact this whole movie is underrated.
She is so bad ass I can't even take it!
Antje Traue is one of the rare good, imo the best, german actresses. Love her movies and tv-series.
dammm that was sexy
She also auditioned for Wonder Woman.
Damn it's been 9 years this movie came out and it still holds up as the best DCEU movie ever made.
Justice League? Aquaman? Wonder Woman?
@@vagabond5935 Aquaman is marvel-esque trash, WW is good but not the best, and Justice League (Zach Snyder's) is very good, but can't top this movie.
@@GonzoInside I believe Aquaman is balanced well enough, same case for Shazam.
@@memecliparchives2254 balanced? They're absolutely Marvel movies. Bright, funny and lighthearted, full of humor. That's not balanced, no sir.
@@GonzoInside Aquaman and Shazam are great movies, Zack Snyder's JL is a masterpiece *on its own terms*. Other movies, well, there kind of bland.
I like the characterisation of her choosing to draw a knife to fight the soldier, even though she could easily kill him with her hands. The Kyrptonians are evil, but they have some level of honour - rewarding a fellow soldier's bravery by treating him like an equal.
