July 3, 2006 Superman is flying Lois back to the Daily Planet. still flying still flying (now checking my watch to see when the movie is over) still flying (now wondering why the directer left this in, I think he was short on time) still flying The only surprise in this movie was Lois's kid, which was cool by the way, won't say more here because I don't want to spoil this for those who want to watch the movie (but why?????) By the way, the villian is defeated about 20 minutes before the credits roll, if you leave when that happens, you don't miss anything. I really expected more, especially from the guy who directed the X-men movies. I can only wonder what happened to him on the way to this new movie, brain damage. The former were tight, jam packed action flicks that successfully explored multiple characters. This is a drag fest that doesn't do much with the few characters he has to deal with. Come on, 5 years have passed, but nothing new has happened to Jimmy, the boss, or even Lex. Granted Lex was in prison, but he doesn't seem to have changed at all. Hmm, what else was thrown in to lengthen the movie: some half baked references to superman being Jesus, including having superman stand like Jesus on the cross. The one cute little dog eating the other one. The obligitory Lois getting captured scene, which also dragged on and on. A hilarious scene where we were supposed to be afraid of Lex Luthor's wigs. A montage of Superman stopping minor crimes. Now I am biased, I wanted this guy to keep making X-men movies, but now I am not even so sure of that. A movie that costs this much to make should not leave audiences repeatedly wondering when it will be over. save yourself a ticket, if you must watch it, watch the video, then you can go make a sandwitch during the boring parts.
Oh, I will put the reason the kid is cool in this
paragraph, but I will bury it so that you will only
see it if you want to. If you plan to watch the movie
stop now. OK, I am about to tell you, last chance.
Superman is a daddy. OK, I said it, and ruined the
movie if you haven't seen it, but I did warn you.
