For those who have seen the movie, did you "almost" cry? (SPOILERS)

The Pa Kent tornado scene. Only one that had me at the brink of tears. That's not to say a lot of the other scenes weren't emotional, because they were, but it usually takes a lot to make me even get close to crying.

 

Yeah, definitely Jonathan's death.

 

I was either angry or indifferent at the parts where a cry would otherwise be in order, I guess. The movie didn't really manage to move me in a good way at any point.

 

I was utterly shocked that I didn't get that form of emotion (tears) I may have had a tiny sniffle when Lara couldn't seem to let go of Kal and the "we won't see him to take his first steps" line, but the others I felt the emotion of Supes, but not in a teary eyes way, more of a felt sorry type of deal.

When you think about it, it's sad that Clarks last conversation with Pa was "..you're not my father, you're just some guy who found me in a field." That was heavy and you saw Clarks regret immediately.. "Dad..look" before the tornado.

Cavill's expression and the way his lips quivered was damn, DAMN good.

 

I cried 6 times. Very emotional/heart felt movie in the right places.

 

*Pa Kent putting his hand up & Clark screaming "Daaaaaadddd" almost formed a small amount of waterworks.

*Lara-El saying "Now that I've seen him. I just can't do it" Actually that whole segment of them saying goodbye while putting Clark in the ship.

*Lara-El's death

*The end with Jonathan watching Clark run around in the cape with the dog

 

I knew going in that I would get a little misty eyed. And based on trailers and such, I thought i knew which scenes and moments would bring a tear to my eye.

But I found myself getting misty eyed over during some scenes I wasnt expecting. For instance,

I knew i might cry during scenes with Pa Kent and young Clark, but I didnt. However, the scene where Diane Lane's Martha Kent showed up at school and the whole dialog about the world being too big and the, "Then make it small... Pretend your on an island. Focus on my voice..."; the hug she gives Clark, the tears.... Not only did i have to discretely wipe the tears away during this scene, I have to wipe them away now as I sit here writing about it.

 

Yes. This scene was powerful. Diane Lane was everything she was supposed to be and brought a different side of a nurturing mother-figure. Sassy as well. "Go to hell.."

Her performance is highly underrated.

 

Cry? No but I mentally ****ed my pants.

 

I am a spoiler fanatic, love them, love to know. But I've got to confess, for the first time ever, I feel the trailers did indeed give away too much in terms of the best lines/exchanges of dialogue in the film. It felt like every great moment had been shown. Which is normally fine but... it left me less emotional when they happened as a result. And I'm not that kind of person; I love spoilers and knowing and never think trailers give away too much. So for me to say it now... it's pretty unique.

I think the "you are my son" moment would have gotten a choke-up from me for sure if it had been kept from us.

 

When the soldiers were pointing their weapons at Superman and then one by one they lowered their guns as they start realizing that Clark is not the enemy.......then Col Hardy comes in and says just that.

 

Nearly got very emotional when Lara and Jor-El where giving their last words to Clark and when Martha was trying to help young Clark in school.
