Review of Superman Returns (2006) by Liza W — 25 Dec 2018
Although I am no big fan of superhero films I can acknowledge a good film when I chance upon one and this is one of those good films which also happens to be a superhero film. Superman Returns clocks in at a fat 157 minutes, but I hardly noticed the passage of time.
The movie had me enthralled from opening to closing. One could easily argue that Singer used his time in the X-Men universe as an opportunity to hone his superhero movie skills. Superman Returns is near the top - if not at the top - of the superhero movie pile.
It offers nearly everything: romance, action, humor, and plenty of goose bumps. For Superman, many happy returns. Brandon Routh is good- He looks the part and can act and Kevin Spacey relishes being the baddie Lex Luthor as much as any bad guy he has played.
