Review of Superman II (1980) by Giannis A — 02 Mar 2013
Still entertaining, but some lazy writing and acting in parts - as well as the CGI, but it its over 30 years old, so they were sort of pioneering the 'flying through space' look! Zod's not the most fear-inducing bad guy and there's lots of points where you're like "why didn't Superman just fly over there really fast and stop him, instead of yelling 'noooo'?" It's nice to see Brando again and Hackman's hammy as Luthor again, but Reeve steals the show as Superman.
I just wish they didn't have the cop-out 'fly around the Earth so time turns back' ending again!
