SUPERMAN RETURNS

I should say right off that I’ve never liked Superman.  He’s too powerful, too goody-goody, and wears tights and a cape.  (Blech.)  That said, I liked this film.  Well, not completely.  The Lex Luthor new-continent subplot is iron-lung lame.  The Lois-Supey story holds the film together – that and the fact that Lois has borne Supey’s child while he was away.  (That’s not a spoiler – everyone but the title character and Lois’s partner has scoped this out 10 minutes in.  Part of the fun is waiting for the kid to prove you right.)
