Superman Returns
Last night we went to the sneak preview of the new Superman movie "Superman Returns". The theater was pretty packed with a good variety of people, anyone from little kids to people in their 40's or 50's. It's nice to see a movie that can draw such a variety of people. The show didn't start until 10pm, and at about 10 mins to, this guy that works at the theater comes out and thanks everyone for coming, yadda yadda, then proceeds to inform us that this movie is about 3 hours long!!! This is after we've already paid, got snacks, etc. So, needless to say I'm a wee bit tired today, Well, not as tired as I would be without the x-large mocha I got from Tim's this morning, lol.
As the lights dim you can tell everyone is pretty excited. Of course they show some previews first, which I have to say I was pretty disappointed in, the rumor was that they were going to be showing the preview for the next Spiderman movie, but it didn't happen, oh well no biggie. The Superman movie fianlly starts, the opening credits were pretty cool, complete with the old school superman theme. I won't go into any detail about the movie as I don't want to ruin it for anyone that is planning on seeing it. However I will say this much, it was pretty awesome, probably one of the best "superhero" movies to come out for a long time. Nothing was overdone, and they didn't deviate from the original story, which is good. This new Superman looks very very eerily like Christopher Reeve, it's a pretty amazing resemblance. The addition of modern special effects was pretty cool too, not too overdone, but still awesome. I hate it when they overuse special effects so much that it makes the movie look more fake then the "old style" special effects, lol. In conclusion I would recommend this movie, even if you're not a huge superhero movie fan, or even if you're a huge Superman fan, you will enjoy it.
Oh one more thing......there' s a very interesting twist....and that's all I have to say about that ;).
