this is bad

I've seen my share of bad movies - haven't we all? But this was pure disappointment. Due to everything, really... First, the script (how corny and stupid can the dialogues get!?!), the editing (remember the opening scene!), and then, the acting - sorry, Routh does not have Reeves' charm, no one ever will of course, he just doesn't have what it takes to be a 'great' actor. Kevin Spacey as Lex Luth... read more

Before it came out, there was a huge buzz surrounding this flick. After almost 20 years, Superman was finally back on the big screen and it was (and still is ) one of the most expensive movies ever made. Unfortunately, it was nothing great and the movie really tanked at the box-office and it was a huge blow for all the careers of the people involved (Bryan Singer, Brandon Routh, Kate Bosworth, Kev... read more

There was a lot of room for them to mess this movie up. Thankfully, they didn't do so. The actor who plays Superman/Clark Kent is an excellent fit for the role. He keeps the quality that Christopher Reeve brought to the character but makes it his own. Also, Kevin Spacey did an excellent job with Lex Luthor and Parker Posey knocks the bimbo girlfriend role out of the park.

“There have been critics who have been stinting in their praise for this movie, but others were quite condescending. This film is far from a masterpiece, and definitely not the best of the Superman franchise, but it was fairly solid considering what it could've been. First off, visually it looks amazing and I thought the special effects were extremely good. Same with the music score, full of those familiar motifs and some new haunting ones too. While Lex Luthor wasn't portrayed as the cold, shrewd yet somewhat lovable villain Gene Hackman played so memorably in the original movies, Kevin Spacey the competent actor he is played him very well. Also Bryan Singer's direction was able and had just the right edge, and I was intrigued by the film's concept. And I have to say, some of the action sc” read more
