Review of Superman III (1983) by Mrmoviebuff — 09 May 2017

'Superman III' is the kind of movie that is a miscalculation of all things in the genre, and even the character like Superman himself. Everything you knew and loved about the character gets misused so much, it's a wonder why the studio was even making these movies anymore.

Christopher Reeve is back as the title character, and he must confront his inner demons, which leads to a rather ridiculous fight that, while somewhat technically impressive for 1983, its overall execution is rather clunky and misguided.

Richard Pryor is the latest comic relief here, and he does what he can in a premise that should not require any comedic effect, but for some reason, the filmmakers behind this movie felt that comedy was needed for a story like this.

I could go on about why this movie was a colossal disappointment, but I think just a simple "Don't watch it!" should be more than enough to give you an idea as to why this movie should never be seen.
