Review of Superman IV: The Quest for Peace (1987) by Petros T — 18 Jul 2017
The Superman films were never going for subtlety and yet they still more or less hold up even today, their kitsch 80s aesthetics making them a fun blast from the past. This is definitely not the case here.
The effects are awful, the action totally underwhelming and half-arsed and the script uninteresting and often full-on idiotic (the hair triggering the plot, Superman moving the moon, Lacy breathing in space etc.
). The only positive thing I can think of is Jon Cryer's performance and that's it.
