![]() Rating: - How many f's in catastrophe?No offense to Brian Singer because I really did enjoy the X-Men movies, but I still don't understand who decided that re-making Superman was a good idea. Even more obvious in my head then Micheal Keaton is Batman, Christopher Reeve *is* Superman. It took the phenomenal talent of Christian Bale to shift the idea of who The Batman could be and make me believe it. How could any less be expected of the next actor to fill Reeve's blue tights. What Christopher Reeve did was to create two separate and individual characters who just happened to be played by the same actor, and although we occasionally see them merge together for a moment or two, brief reminders that Clark Kent is Superman in disguise, it's that dedication to playing them as total polar opposites that makes Reeve's Superman iconic. Unfortunately, as hot as he is, all Brandon Routh did was to remind me that he isn't Christopher Reeve. He looked the part well enough and mimicked Reeve's performance close enough that I didn't throw popcorn at the screen, but there was nothing that made me think, oh, yes, he is Superman. I was entertained, but mostly I just thought of how much better Christopher Reeve was in the part. Kate Bosworth never even came close to Margot Kidder's Lois Lane, but then I never expected her to and so there was no real disappointment. It looked like they tried to age Bosworth into the part, which only made her look like a teenager playing dress-up. I didn't believe her as a mother for ...

Rating: - Unfamiliar SupermanI want to compare this movie with 1978 Richard donner. Some kids from our family saying after leaving theater for superman returns "this superman with red back cloth, look totally silly when he fly like this!!!" this statement hold my breath abruptly for first time and start to think: WHY the kids say that? When ever the kids criticized superman character??? That's very, very strange. First time I brought superman 78 at home was in 1983 on betamex and I was very young, all family member from all ages like the film, I wouldn't say TOO much, but into very distinctive level, the opining scene with letters actors name accompany by john Williams music made strong impact to every one, the scene when Christopher reeve hold damaged helicopter by his hand, also they enjoy it much, everybody felt like true no special effects been made. This film has TOO many animations, superman leave city, superman return, again leaving again return, the landscape in the end plus the ocean look very bizarre not attractive at all. How can superman love a married woman?? The music score used exactly as 78 for john Williams makes me feel bored nothing new or changed. For first time I felt I lost superman smell and feel completely. But if the kids saying like this, then what the older like me would say??? Rating: - The Man Of Steel Is Back...With A Vengeance.After 20 years, The Man Of Steel is back...with a new face. From the director & writer of "The Usual Suspects" (an engrossing suspense thriller with a wicked twist of an ending) comes the "Sequel" to "Superman II." Disregarding the abysmal "Superman III" & "Superman IV" (despite a terrific performance from Christopher Reeve; stupid script & horrible direction), this film is a sequel & homage to the films made in 1978 & 1980. Brandon Routh makes an interesting Clark Kent/Superman, but he fell flat when he said the lines spoken by Christopher Reeve in the original. I enjoyed the subplot with Lois Lane and her son. Really good. I'm looking forward to the sequel. Rated PG for action violence. Rating: - Too much posing and melancholyWhen I originally saw the movie in the movie theathers back in 2006, I remember it had enough qualities to make it a good popcorn movie but ultimately it felt kind of empty. My main issues with the movie are that it's bogged down by the melancholy that's portrayed by the alienation of Superman and I did not buy Brandon Routh on the screen as Superman. How many times do we have to see Superman standing alone above the city in front of a setting sun appearing to be deep in-thought as a Christ-like figure?? Instead of sludging through the movie like it's some sort of melodrama, why don't you have the most powerful being on the planet take on a problem with a much wider scope, more powerful villians (e.g. Brainiac/Doomsday), and more action with the tempo picking up at the end of the movie instead of another plot with Lex Luthor coming across more Kryptonite to use against Superman. As for Brandon Routh, the only time I found him to be believable in the movie was the first 15 minutes when he portrayed the Smallville/Kansas version of Clark Kent. When the movie progressed to Metroplis, I felt like he was trying to imitate Christopher Reeve's version of Superman. I believe he should have abandoned the nebbish/comical take that Reeve perfected in his movies and should have played Clark with more originality. Also, he never demonstrated the proper amount of authority (or maturity) and charisma when he was Superman. When he ran down the street, taking off his ...
