Superman Returns

Saw this at the movies on Saturday. A really good movie. A bit thin on story, but faithful to the original comics and the previous movies. Brandon Routh's mannerisms are uncannily similar to those of the late Christopher Reeve, and there is one point in the movie when he says "You shouldn't smoke Miss Lane" where he sounds EXACTLY like Reeve.

Kevin Spacey is (as usual) excellent and even Kate Bosworth is believeable as Lois Lane. Some excellent action sequences, as you would expect from Hollywood these days, although the New York (excuse me, I mean Metropolis) scenes with buildings bordering on collapse were just a little too close to the 9/11 edge if you know what I mean.

Worth a look. 7.5 out of 10.
