i caught the movie superman returns last sunday with my mom and bro, felt the show wasnt as good as i had expected it to be, especially with all the media hype and publicity.  Though i gota hand it to them for the awesomely amazing CGI,i have to say, the show was a little ridiculous at times.  Shouldnt he(superman) have died when Lex impaled the helpless superhero with a 7inch kryptonite? one thing i know for sure that if that happened in the cartoon/comic, he would have almost instantly died.  And what was with the removal of the "island".  yea i know the man of steel is strong but cuttin through the earth's crust and lifting what could be miles of land and sea, well i personally think that's a little too much. anyway, overall i deem this flick acceptable, surely not a movie which requires brains.  Though some of he antics were absurd, i believe superman fans all arnd the world enjoyed this show. thumbs up to Singer, this show gets a cool 3 n a half stars out of 5 for me =)
