I can't think of a suitable place to begin with this rant. I've just this minute finnished watching the movie, and everything about it is awful. The lousy acting (especially Reeve and Stamp), the obvious special effects, the writing and dialogue in this movie can only be described as shoddy and borish at best.
I hope that Zack Snyder can bring the franchise back from the hangover that's been left by a series of morons.
That is all.

Zack Snyder sucks and so will his Superman movie. I take it you're trolling, as this is your only post here, and wanted a reaction. Well this is mine. You suck!
shareI teach secondary students who are currently learning journalism in my class. I showed the entire class both superman 1 & 2 back to back. I then told my class both films were made in the 1970s. they didn't believe. Suffice to say my class left feeling truly inspired and they all wish to be journalists like Clark Kent and Louis lane. So I'm unsure which unit of measurement you benchmark or judge films by,but if it's a film intended for a young audience, why not ask them how they feel after watching it? you will be surprised by the reaction

Whose idea was it for the word "Lisp" to have an "S" in it?
Maybe the OP is trolling, but that doesn't mean he isn't right. This movie is terrible. The acting is terrible. By everyone. The characters make incomprehensible decisions throughout. Why does Superman decide to take away his powers? Why does Lois let him? She loves Superman, not Clark. The bad guys are hokey. Superman for some reason gets new and stupid powers. Superman is apparently an idiot who forgets he got rid of his powers, gets in a fight, and is surprised when he gets hurt. Superman gets his powers back with no explanation. All this leads to: the plot is bad.
And notice I didn't mention the effects? That's the least of this movie's problems.

Before you jump on me, know this: I rarely think things through before posting.
I have to agree 100%. Even completely disregarding the effects (which I would call dated, but fine for late-70s/early-80s), this movie is filled with problems. I'm hard-pressed to recall a movie more riddled with "incomprehensible decisions" and other plotholes. From conversations on the moon to hurricane breath that can toss cars around but barely affects the guy licking his ice cream cone to the more serious cases like a fully human Superman traversing the tundra twice in just a dress shirt and slacks ... there are so many, I honestly wouldn't even know where to start, and would probably get too frustrated before coming anywhere near finishing.
We have not one, but two status-quo resets that destroy much of what little plot/character development we are shown: the reversal of the "if you make this decision, it's FOREVER" loss of powers, and the amnesia kiss. (I'm glad I didn't watch I and II at the same time - the trifecta of those two plus the spin the world backwards to turn back time bit would likely have been too much for me).
Bad writing, inconsistent line delivery, unfunny comedic bits. All in all, it just seems very sloppy and slapped together. And don't even get me started on the most blatant, distracting product placement that I've seen since Transformers and I, Robot.
(A) Your rant is a load of crap.
(B) Man of Steel was mostly God awful with some nice touches, which were overshadowed by a leash not being tightened around Zack Snyder's neck for the last 45 minutes.
People say the two Superman movies are awful. Compared to what movie of today exactly?

Very few people say they're awful. People who do are just more vocal because they're annoyed people enjoy something they don't understand.
