I just got back from this. I really thought Brandon Mumblemumble had Clark Kent nailed. He really reminded me that Clark is supposed to be NERD-1, which is really most of his disguise.
I however, did not think Kate Bosworth was a good choice for Lois Lane. She didn't fit in with my mental image of Lois, and while she did a pretty good job with the role, seeing her as Lois was quite distracting throughout the film. Also, I know I'm gonna get a lot of flak for this, but I was underwhelmed by the score. I particularly was surprised that the intro stacatto notes to the theme were quoted more often than the actual fanfare itself. It seemed like Superman's motif in the movie wasn't the fanfare, but those stacatto notes, which I thought lessened the impact of the score. I absolutely love the score to the first movie, by the way. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
Watched this last night, and really enjoyed it. Like many have already said, I thought Routh did a great job playing as Superman/Clark Kent. Though, it didn't seem like he had much in terms of lines (however, when he did, he sure sounded a lot like Reeve). Anyway, I liked how they kept the opening credits similar to the first movie (only have seen the original, has yet to find time for the sequels). One thing I thought that they did well was Superman flying (compared to the original), you really got a sense of speed (eg. the part when he flew out of Daily Planet and quickly hit sonic boom), haha, and his cape actually flowing when he flew.
The plot was somewhat predictable. It would have been interesting to have seen the movie using Kevin Smith's script (which was based on the issue story arc where Superman was killed Doomday and reborn much more stronger). Haha, even though I'm pretty sure it would have turned out cheesy. Has anyone seen this on the IMAX? Is it any good on the larger screen? Cause I was thinking seeing it there for a second viewing. Last time I saw a movie on the IMAX was Spider-man, and I could barely remember the experience on it. BTW, wasn't the Spider-man 3 teaser supposed to be shown during the previews for Superman Returns? This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
They also showed trailers for The Ant Bully and Happy Feet before the film which threw me off because as soon as the "The Following Preview..." notice came up the whole picture went out of focus. Apparently the staff failed to mention that the previews would be in 3D too. :eyebrow: Most amazing jew boots |
One word for this movie, BORING!!! I love comic movies but this one put me to sleep. There was more silience in this movie than anything else. The only good action scene was the plane crash and Lex Luthor and Kitty were ultra lame I thought.
What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
Kate Bosworth was too young and not very aggressive. She did a decent job, but somehow I even though Kitty might have a better "look" for Lois than Kate did, but Kitty wasn't pretty enough. Kate reminded me a bit of Natalie Portman, don't really picture them as Pulitzer prize winning journalists. The main Superman theme carried the movie music wise.. I didn't hear anything else that was all that inspiring. Good movie overall, liked it better than Pirates 2 at least. How ya doing, buddy? |
I personally found the movie to be hyped up. The effects were awsome but the movie as a whole really dissapointed me.
