I think his final scream was a realization that all his kind were gone now

Where did you train? ON A FARM?! *Takes off armor and starts flying* MOTHER FUCKING BADASSERY!

OMG do you realize that Bruce wayne is in Metropolis watching !!!!!!

3:19 The strong holler of pain that later became knows as the best performance Henry Cavil ever did. Warner Bros' at their best. This film was a triumph.

I think the "Never" response Zod gave is the most important part of the film. IT is the moment Clark new he had to do the inevitable.

why do people complain that when superman kills zod, it's too dark but when ironman and cap kill people too its considered light hearted?

'If you love these people so much, you can mourn for them!' The way Zod said it along with the music and it's tone gave my chills. Also, welcome to DC where villians don't mess around. They're going to kill and they're not going to make jokes. Superman had to kill him. Believe it or not, this was the true birth of Superman.

DONT WORRY KIDS HES SLEEPING HE TICKLED HIM TO SLEEP

A lot of people complain that Superman never took the fight out of the city, I'm pretty sure there were a couple of times he tried but Zod would only fly right back into the middle of Metropolis so he could keep chucking Supes into buildings.

yeah you can tell he doesnt want to have to kill zod but zod made it clear he wasnt going to stop

Superman was faced with a no-win situation, having to choose between the people of Earth and Krypton. Superman made the ultimate sacrifice for the only world he's ever called home, by having to regrettably kill not just a man, but a fellow Kryptonian and possibly the last of his own kind. The result makes him even feel more alone, but in the same way, also makes him more human; having to realize that he is imperfect and will not have the answer for the every challenge he faces. He becomes the stronger hero by accepting what he cannot solve in this world, as he seeks the answers for what he can.

i still fail to see how this scene has no color.. people say the movie has no color.. but i do say great amount of color. also, the fight scene was soo comic accurate.. i mean c'mon.. even if you are a big comic reader, and you don't like MoS.. you have admit how accurate the fight scenes are. as for me i love MoS.. best superman movie to date.

1:15 in the words of a very smart woman....... NO CAPES!

such a good movie, too bad its underrated

God I absolutely love this scene. It's incredibly powerful in every sense of the word

0:28 supermans face showed anger and realization. He realized that zod is learning quick and needs to be stopped soon before he becomes stronger

Honestly...people only hate on this film because either they're not superman fans or they just don't understand the film.

His scream after he probably realized he was the last of his kind is fucking heartbreaking.

during this scene.. Batman looks at the sky.. and then.......................... DUN......... DUN.. DUN.. DUN.. DUN..........

The part when he drops to his knees and screams gives me chills. This is my favorite superman movie :)

That’s just so deep. And the way that Lois came to comfort and hug him, wow. This seen nearly brought me to tears. But I understand why he did it. He left him no choice.

For those of you who are pissed off at this, he already killed Zod in Superman 2 and in a much worse fashion! In that movie, he had Zod down and he crushed the hand of a now depowered and defenseless Zod and threw him in a bottomless pit. And after he does that, he's just smiling like a jackass. He doesn't feel remorse for what he's done. And to add insult to injury, Lois punches Ursa down the same pit and just stands there laughing with him. Are you kidding me?! At least when he kills Zod in Man of Steel, he has a legitimate reason for doing so. He has Zod in a headlock and when he uses his heat vision to back a poor defenseless family into the corner, he begs him to stop. And when he refuses, out of options, he snaps his neck and kills him. And afterwards he cries out in agony, and this was clearly a very emotional moment for him. But no! The one who feels remorse for killing his enemy, that's betrayal! That's blasphemy! But the one who laughs about it, he's the one everybody loves. You know what, are you people on drugs?

"He was too dangerous to be kept alive." -Sheev Palpatine.

How can Louis Lane be everywhere at the same time?

I feel bad for Clark here. He didn't have a choice, but he had to do this in order to save Earth. The reason why he screamed in anguish is because that he killed the last of his kind. The film was really emotional and powerful, and Henry Cavill was outstanding as Superman.

At first I was disappointed with the lack of Snyder's signature slowmo in MoS, but have come to love the super speed and great coherence of these action scenes - no excessive shaky cam or fast cuts, no cartoony physics. The King of comic book movie directors IMO.

I really don't know why people say superman destroyed the city here...I mean it's obvious he's getting his ass kicked by zod for most of this fight, also the world engine...ya know the giant dubstep gun leveled most of the city before this fight even started, the rest was all zod just not giving a flying fuck

I love this movie because of this. It wasn't afraid to be bold and have Superman kill Zod; after all, no one is perfect and it would only make an already OP character boring, giving him flaws is exactly what he needs. He can learn from his mistakes in sequels, but I'm just glad that DC at their peak weren't afraid to be different and were okay with taking risks, now look where they are with Justice League, a laughing stock.

best fighting scene in any comic book related movie 10/10

This was honestly a good setup for another superman stand alone movie...

This is what DBZ should've been like.

I was surprised that I was the only one out of all my of my friends who actually liked this and thought it was very accurate to superman comics. The fight is amazing.

That *"Never."* was all Superman needed to decide that killing Zod was necessary.

For all those complaining about the destruction, Clark had only been Superman for like a day or so.

"People Hate what they don't Understand"-Clark Kent's Mom!!

When people complain that superman never took the fight out of the city, they need to be reminded, that one does not simply have time to think about the environment whilst fightin against a greedy overpowered lightspeed flying maniac who wants to extinct the very race he is attempting to save

damn he snapped his neck so fast there was a shockwave

so he trained on a farm and still wrecked him lol

2:53 you can feel the pain in that scream...i feel't like mine spine snaped..that sound effect was that good.

zod: where do you train "IN A FARM"? goku: yes, with an old man that is not kevin costner.

Me at 1:15 - "NO CAPES!!!"

When I saw this in the theater, someone shouted out "OH SHIT" when Superman superbroke Zod's neck.

Snyder for a new trilogy of dragon ball z!

Zod was under a lot of stress. He burned himself out and just snapped.

When I first saw this, I didn't know how to feel. I was so shocked that they had done this, no convoluted way to imprison zod or remove him. Just a bare brawl between two men ending in death. And the more I think about it, the more brilliant it is. Because their is no clear answer, because it's not good guy wins, bad guy loses. Because it's the first time I truly empathised with a cinematic Superman.

the scream at the end was well placed, it signifies superman's regret at killing the last member of his race

This is one of the most emotional and powerful scene I have seen in any comic related movie the only thing that I feel undermines its value is the random appearance of Lois Lane

such a good scene the music the tension and epicness of the fight even the neck snap was quite an intermate almost human way to kill him.

CAN THOSE CIVILIANS JUST RUN INSTEAD OF WAITING FOR THE LASER TO REACH THEM?

how the fucking fuck did Lois get there so fast?

Even a super man is just a man when he's alone. You can feel the sudden realization of his kind's extinction when Superman screams the way he did.

love the fact they got his remorse down in the scream at the end. everyone knows, like Batman, Superman doesn't kill unless needed.

What makes this scene even darker is that Zod deliberately provoked Clark into killing him.

This was a great movie and all, but those people who backed themselves into a corner reminded me of the steamroller guy in the first Austin Powers movie.

It's 2023 and we still can't top this action scene...

And to think that people actually think that Batman has any chance against Superman. They are delusional. I also find it funny how in the movie "Batman Vs Superman", Batman manages to evade Superman's Laser Vision. For those who might not know, Lasers are powerful beams of electromagnetic radiation. Laser beams can be made from visible light, x-rays, ultraviolet light or infrared light. This means lasers travel at the speed of light and light can go around the earth 7 1/2 times in 1 second. This means that if Superman fires his laser vision at Batman from anywhere on earth (Safe from the effects of Kryptonite), Batman would be Toastman 100% of the time because he wouldnt be able to see it coming, much less be able to react to it.

me as a 10 year old wouldn't even know that this was fake! the CGI is perfect!!!

two of my all time favorite fight scenes are in this film and so many people bashed it and moaned, groaned, whined and complained. Tell me, what's wrong with it? Why was this so unsatisfactory? Are we so few that the majority of people cannot sit down, watch a movie, and enjoy it for what it is without being cynical and griping? I have watched the worst films on this planet, utterly terrible films. one had no lighting and was filmed outside at night so you couldn't see anything and another movie had completely wooden acting and the plot was so simple yet poorly done that it took me multiple tries to sit through. Despite this, I still get the people that still say, with every film, "this is the worst film ever!" Same person, different movie.

i love the fact that the dad just pins the other family member to the wall while the laser is behind him and everyone could've just run else where. The most dramatic thing so far.

We have to understand that Superman is not like Batman. He has principles, but if it will cost the death of someone, he'll do it if he has to. It makes viewers realize that some choices are hard.

Crazy the final scene we can really sense supermans true power and devotion of not killing anyone unless we have too. really one of the best superman movies ever made.

Love that classic superman punch at 00:44

Zack Snyder please make DBZ

One god kills another. A lover defeats a fighter, and the woman doesn't fear the victor, despite his power, but goes TO him. Notice how Lois doesn't look at Zod's body, she looks at Clark. He is overwhelmed, and she trusts him completely. That moment gets me every time.

Captain America, Iron man and all marvel heroes except spiderman kill the villian or their goons that pose no real threat and crack jokes afterwards, yet they are considered family friendly. This Superman kills zod who is powerful enough to destroy the world, does it to save humanity, screams out of grief from having to take a life, and people consider him a murderer. Heck even christopher reeves' superman kill a depowered zod who wsnt a threat and smiled afterwards, yet he isn't criticised. What kind of world do I live in?

amazing acting scene,

Takes a skilled director to pull this scene off as cinematic and convincing as it was. The shots were amazing, like 2 angelic powers clashing, the music is on par, just brilliant work by Snyder. His best work to date.

I love this movie. Great work. Excited for the Synder Cut. Hope we see a MOS 2.

Well that's what you get when you take off your armor

How did Ms Lane get there so fast with all the debris on the streets? lol

Love the background music !

this scene is awesome the background music makes it better and people still aren't appreciative

And in the end he ended up kneeling before him.

People hate what they don’t understand, I feel like Dc films like this and BVS are above people’s understanding so they diss on them , in 10 years they might be hailing them the Genius Classics of their time 😅😅

I love this version of Lois & Clark.

I don’t care what anyone says, this movie was fucking amazing and Superman being forced to kill Zod was as emotional as it was shocking.

This movie will forever be 100000000000000 times better than the flash movie. 1 this movie has heart 2 Has the best Zod 3 way better fight scenes 4 CGI way way way better 5 story makes sense 6 EPIC fight scenes 7 you feel the emotional connection to both characters

Most underrated actor (Henry)

So basically, Superman was willing to kill someone to save the entire human race. Something Batman would never do. It's obvious that Superman is the greater hero.

somebody in a different video mentioned the satellite was of wayne enterprise and i never noticed until now. Zack Snyder you brilliant man you.

Why didn't he just but a hand over his eyes

Zack Snyder's movie is an art the more times you watch, the more details and meanings you recognize, and then the more you love it That's what Marvel's movie can't do Praise director Zack Snyder !!!

Imagine if Superman, in the process of snapping Zod's neck, turned his head right, and his heat vision still fried the family. At first in theaters I actually thought that's what happened and why he screamed, because right after that, the family literally disappears. I'm pretty sure you never see them again

I believe the final scream is that even though Zod died, he won.

Best Superman movie and Cavill will always be the best Superman!

Lois lane traveled several kilometers to superman location in 5 seconds 🤣

2:21 General Zod: If you love these people so much then you can mourn for them !!😠😡

This movie has gotten better with age. It is one of the best Superman movies ever. Right up there with Supes II from 1980

best superman movie

"And then he did a backflip, snapped the bad guy's neck and saved the day!"

I will never in my life hear a more satisfying snap.

Lois would be terrified. hugging supes as an attempt to make him feel human again is a gamble.

0:44 that right there was worth all the shit people complained about in both movies. Even Donner couldn't recreate Superman's fighting style with the groundbreaking effects he used in the 70s. But here all Snyder and Nolan realized as "Hey he can fly why doesn't he use that force from his flight to back up his punches." Something Superman would do against a powerful foe like Zod.

2:47 General Zod: Never !!

Zod literally learned to use Sol-induced powers in a matter of hours. Impressive.

would've been cool if the armor zod removed here ended up becoming lex's warsuit from the comics.

3:18 When there's nothing in the fridge 😂

That final battle was amazing. I know it’s a lot of controversy that Superman killed Zod but I think it was a brilliant idea

In 1980: general zod gets his powers right away In 2013: general zod takes most of the movie to get his powers.

I love this movie
