Review of The Death of "Superman Lives": What Happened? (2015) by Ian G — 16 Jul 2015

A great documentary with a very interesting subject. Superman Lives was supposed to be Tim Burton's take on Superman with Nicolas Cage as Superman. This may sound crazy without watching the documentary, but once you see it, you're like, oh that's actually pretty damn great! This movie would've been the most insane superhero movie! Even though we don't get to hear what Nicolas Cage thinks of the movie now, we do see everyone else involved in the movie, such as Kevin Smith, Tim Burton, Jon Peters etc.

etc. While the documentary does look deep into the movie, some things are still left unanswered, such as what was supposed to be the plot? We hear a lot about the fight scenes, the costumes, the monsters, the villains and everything, but we don't get a precise plot! For a movie which had 3 different scripts written, I expected to hear more about the story.

All in all, this is a really fun and interesting documentary about the movie which, I think, would've been the most insane and different superhero movie ever made. Would deffinetely recommend seeing this if you're interested in Superman and seeing how Nicolas Cage's Superman would've looked like.
