Superman Returns



Superman Returns (2006) – It’s faithful in many ways, both good and bad, to Donner’s Superman; Spacey is a great cast, but Bosworth kind of just sits there and the superficially Reeve-like Routh doesn’t have his predecessor’s charisma in either role (the script, which makes him a self-absorbed supporting character in his own movie, doesn’t help); the love child/deadbeat creeper dad subplot doesn’t work for me at all, particularly as it does nothing with the relationship, and the final act is suspenseless and uninspired, but yet it’s all decently watchable. 6
