Went to the late late first showing of Superman Returns last night.
Yeah, I actually went to a movie!!
The movie was done well, with lots of inside nods and winks and great special effects. If you're familar with the Superman legend, you'll find some funny bits. It's also a good idea to watch the first two Superman movies before watching this one, because it's connected. Supermans 3 and 4 thankfully no longer exist!
There wasn't a lot of warmth in this movie though. And the best way to describe the movie is "edgy political correctness". It reminded me of what Syndrome said in the Incredibles: "..if we are all special, then none of us are".
Also, definitely watch what you drink before the movie; it's over 2 hours, 40 minutes long!
