erasing the existence of superman iii and iv, bryan singer returns to donner's films and creates a direct sequel to parts i and ii forming a complete trilogy. forget the nay sayers and the haters for if you are a fan of i and ii then this movie is for you. it's got the same feel as those movies, the same tone and the same epic structure. spacey channels hackman perfectly and routh as sups channels reeve just as well, especially as clark kent. the effects are phenomenal, the cinematography is glorious, the action spectacular and the story engaging. some people have a problem with sups picking up the krypton made land mass as krypton is his one vice but there is no problem there in my eyes. you see krypton slowly weakens sups so as he pushes the land mass into space he becomes weaker and weaker until he enters space and is so weak that he falls back to earth where he becomes strong yet again. where is the problem there i ask you? no baby sups? that maybe wasn't the greatest idea... production design: 10 out of 10 cinematography: 9 out of 10 re-playability: 8 out of 10 originality: 7 out of 10 costumes: 9 out of 10 directing: 9 out of 10 editing: 8 out of 10 acting: 9 out of 10 music: 9 out of 10 script: 7 out of 10 85/100
