i didnt think it was that bad. coulda been better though. half the time he looked cgi, even his close up shots of his face. it was interesting how they tied it into the old movies, but didnt Lois Lane know clark kent was superman?? didnt she figure it out in the old ones?

the guy who plays superman looks a helluva lot like christopher reeve and kevin spacey was fantastic as lex luthor.

anyone catch on the news where the news anchor mentions gotham city. or tha Jason is wearing Aquaman pajamas to bed....just some minor DC "cross-posting"

And then didn't he somehow erase her memory of it at the end?

They probably spent $150 million just on the code for the CGI.

I think they couldnt have found a better super man, Brandon Routh looked very very close to Christopher Reeve and it was perfect. Anywho I loved it, I'd always been a huge superman fan, it did get kinda long though in the end, but the whole part where he saved the airplane, that was awesome!!

im gonna stop reading this thread now for incase of spoilers - but i've heard if you were a fan of the original superman, then you would like this one. Personally, i'm excited about it and can't wait to see it.

I liked it.

If you go see it, when superman returns from ______, listen very close to the name of the cities the daily planet boss names off, that superman helped. Gotham City is mentioned.

I'll probably see it at some point. I don't care much for Superman as a character though, too much of a goody-goody pretty boy.

Batman owns!! =]

Overall, I enjoyed it. It was certainly worth seeing on the big screen. Ottoman did a pretty good job with the score.

Fantastic movie, especially in IMAX. Give it a 9/10!

Hah - funny. That's the same impression I got from this movie (the first Superman movie I've ever seen) when watching it last night.

My friends agreed that it was worth watching ... nothing spectacular like X2, but decent enough that you're not bored. Beware the length of the movie though - we were in the theater from roughly 7PM-9:45PM (and I still had a 1.5+ hour commute home!).
