Superman Returns- The Review

You already know if you're going to like this movie.







If you like superhero movies and can sit still for over 2hrs, you will like it. It has its slow moments, but some great special effects stuff (we saw it in 3D at IMAX and the scene about 40mins in is amazing). If Under The Tuscan Sun is more your thing, then you can probably skip this.

Some observations:

-The guy playing Superman is not too bad.
-Kate Bosworth's wig was a little distracting. Couldn't she had dyed it?
-There seems to be a lot of kids in movies that have asthma.
-Some parts are hard to follow if you're not a geologist.
-I was dreading Kevin Spacey's scenery chewing but he kept it reined in. I credit, rightfully or not, the director. The same director helped Spacey get his Oscar for The Usual Suspects.
-Kevin Spacey shaved his head and did not wear a bald cap.
-Superman did not seem gay. (Larry King asked the director what he thought of rumors that Superman is gay. Larry is always on the cutting edge...of insanity)
-Yes, there are parts that don't make sense. But keep in mind you're watching a movie about a guy that can fly and see through things. Throw logic out the window.
-The women's clothes were great. Loved the dress Lois Lane wore at the end.

Not related to the movie: Before the movie started I was talking about OJ and said "F*cker" out loud. The kids in front of me turned around and looked at me. I apologized and said that OJ gets me all worked up. Before the start of the movie the family changed seats. OJ fans?

So how exactly do you pronounce f*cker. Is the * silent?
