Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

Well I found it to be just about the worst Superman movie...

Except for part IV which was just shockingly terrible.

You know I'm not sure I can say that there is one single area that I would give the new Superman Returns the edge. Before someone says special effects - even here I'm not convinced. The actual technology is better and the look but not the execution.

As for Clark Kent getting hired or not -- well it;s a comic book movie for heaven sake -- you have a guy flying around in a red cape and blue tights who landed here from outer space and your complaint is that Kent is a bit too clutsy to in reality get the job??? C'mon.

And Indian Jones (Raiders of the Lost Ark) -- I mean if you have a problem with films playing it tongue in cheek or the "reality" of the proceedings why not just read the tag line for what the movie is about and not go. I mean that;s the point of these films.

Superman Returns fails on so many levels but it fails on the primary and only one that matters for a comic book movie -- it was a lifeless humourless bore. And it could not even make up for that with having heart or brains.

This is so far the worst movie I've seen this year -- and that is REALLY saying something because I have seen the abysmal Poseidon.
