On Father's Day, we went as a family to see Man of Steel movie. It was a fitting thing to do, since, well, I am so much like Superman!! Okay, that is not true. My muscles are not that small! What truly made it fitting is how much the film can easily bridge to the gospel. This doesn't mean it is a perfect allegory to the gospel, nor was it meant to be. It is a good film (better than the 1970's version in my opinion) but it may not be suitable for all kids. I suggest you go to Plugged In and read the review. There are a few wordy durds, some of which unfortunately come from the mouth of a kid who bullies the young Clark Kent. But this can be another detail that helps connect Superman to Christ, as I will explain in a bit.
