Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Superman returns to Earth after looking for his home planet Krypton for five years and finds Lois Lane married with a family and terrorism running ram

Amazon.com:
If Richard Donner's 1978 feature film Superman: The Movie made us believe a man could fly, Bryan Singer's 2006 follow-up, Superman Returns, lets us remember that a superhero movie can make our spirits soar. Superman (played by newcomer Brandon Routh) comes back to Earth after a futile five-year search for his destroyed home planet of Krypton. As alter ego Clark Kent, he's eager to return to his job at the Daily Planet and to see Lois Lane (Kate Bosworth). Lois, however, has moved on: she now has a fiancé (James Marsden), a son (Tristan Leabu), and a Pulitzer Prize for her article entitled "Why the World Doesn't Need Superman." On top of this emotional curveball, his old archrival Lex Luthor (Kevin Spacey) is plotting the biggest land grab in history.

Singer, who made a strong impression among comic-book fans for his work on the X-Men franchise and directed Spacey in The Usual Suspects, brings both a fresh eye and a sense of respect to the world's oldest superhero. He borrows John Williams's great theme music and Marlon Brando's voice as Jor-El, and the story (penned by Singer's X-Men collaborators Michael Dougherty and Dan Harris) is a sort-of-sequel to the first two films in the franchise (choosing to ignore that the third and fourth movies ever happened). The humorous and romantic elements give the movie a heart, Singer's art-deco Metropolis is often breathtaking, and the special effects are elegant and spectacular, particularly an early airplane-disaster set-piece. Of the cast, Routh is excellent as the dual Superman/Clark, Spacey is both droll and vicious as Luthor, and Parker Posey gets the best lines as Luthor's moll Kitty. But at 23, Bosworth seems too young for the five-years-past-grizzled Lois. It's nice to see Noel Neill, Jack Larson (both from the classic Adventures of Superman TV series), and Eva Marie-Saint on the screen as well. Superman Returns is one of those projects that was in development for seemingly forever, but it was worth the wait -- it's the most enjoyable superhero movie since Spider-Man 2 and The Incredibles. --David Horiuchi

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - WRONG.WRONG.WRONG!!!
I HATE this stupid, greedy, movie. It's cookie-cutter b.s. at it's worst. Routh is a cheap knockoff of Christopher Reeve who was a lipless twerp to begin with. Kevin Spacey's Luthor seems as threatening as a peeved interior decorator. The scrawny Lois is also completely lame. Yeah let's just make her a single mom. To hell with the concepts that enabled Superman to become so great in the first place. This movie shouldn't be in the 70's,nor should it be the 21rst century,it's roots are in the 40's,the ...

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Visually the Best Superman movie for now.
I bought the 3-Disc Edition of Superman Returns from Circuit City. I have to say that Superman Returns is gorgeous visually. My favorite scenes are (1)the saving of the plane/jet, (2)the automatic gun bouncing bullets, (3)Metropolis mayhem and (4)falling hero. Superman Returns is like Superman: The Movie and Superman III of course without any super villain(s) like you see in Superman II and Superman IV: The Quest for Peace. Superman Returns is a buy or at least a rent.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A Pretty Decent "Re-Imagining"
What I like about this Superman is he captures that awkward brilliance that was Christopher Reeves - even kinda looks like him!
But whereas the movie starts strong and makes us feel very exhilarated, the latter half of the movie falls flat.
Gene Hackman played a Lex Luthor that you would despise yet also laugh off and laugh at. He wasn't a nemesis that you would fear, like the new Batman's Heath Ledger's Joker. In the first Christopher Reeve's Superman, it was all about Superman, and Reeves ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A Near Classic
This is not the Christopher Reeve version Superman that we know and love, but it comes pretty damn close. What i liked most about this version of Superman is the deeper relationship between Lois Lane and Superman and how real it is. To me, the STORY should be just as important as the "cool" graphics, and Singer nails it here. Lois Lane is Superman's love of his life, as well as Lois'...the two are inseparable. Despite having been gone and Lois moving on to another man, the love definitely is still there. ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Boring
Kevin Spacey was the best part. Too much flying around and hugging each other.
