Superman Returns

I can't lie, as I sat and waited for the film to begin, I was fearful after hearing that the movie was nearly two and a half hours that the movie would drag on boringly. However, the movie was exactly the length it needed to be. It definitely did not feel like two and a half hours and it definitely did not drag on boringly. I could not have enjoyed this movie any more, it was probably the best movie I have seen in a long while. Kevin Spacey was born to play Lex Luther, Brandon Routh was the perfect choice for Clark Kent, and the films environment was a perfect mix of today's tech world and a retro feel. Unlike some other comic to big screen movies, I felt that my minimal knowledge on the previous films and comic book story line did not hinder my ability to enjoy this movie. This Superman enstalment was the perfect way to bring Superman back (from his hietis in pop culture and from Metropolis). The story took Superman to a new place (ENDING GIVEAWAY ALERT) giving him a child, and making him mortal for a while (Superman really got his ass kicked in this movie). I am really intrigued to see where the storyline will go from here. While it was intriguing to give Lois and Clark a son, it will be dificult to continue that storyline. I think if they do it correctly, Superman will battle Luther and other foes in the next few entallments, and his son while have fun with his powers in the background. All in all an excellent movie, one that I could see again and again.
